BRITTLE NAILS TREATMENT

• 1. Protect your nails from the repetitive cycle
  of getting wet and drying
• Your nails can absorb water up to about 20 to 25
  of their weight when they remain wet for a
  longer duration. They expand while soaking in
  water and then contract while they are drying.
  This repetitious cycle can weaken your nails
  forcing them to get brittle and peel.
• The solution is that you wear rubber gloves when
  you are accomplishing household chores, like
  washing plates for longer hours.

2. Moisturize dry, hard, and brittle nails

• If dryness is the offender, then use a
  moisturizer, even Vaseline, to your nails
  including the nail bed at the base of your nails.
•  If your nails are super dry, then you need to
  use lotions called super moisturizers for nail
  care. There are excellent moisturizer lotions
  available on the need including Vitamin E,
  Avocado Oil, and Shea Butter.
• On the other hand, if your nails are soft and
  brittle, use less amount of moisturizer, as it
  could be that you are probably using more of it.
• Drink plenty of water to keep your body hydrated,
  including your nails.
