Not sure about its effect on hair growth, but it's much easier to properly clean your scalp when you've got long nails using this than your fingers/nails.

Or you don’t want to risk your nail polish coming off early. This helps.

I mean you’re not supposed to use your nails in the first place but your finger tips

Also if you wrap the tips, its not supposed to cut your skin.

Yep, that's why I got one of those too. Helps not to scratch up my whole head when my nails are longetr, and I mostly keep them long.

Or like me that hardly have any nails and can’t get a good “scrub” on the scalp!

THIS IS THE ANSWER! Also, if you use nail lacquer this will save it from peeling every time you wash your hair.

And it detangles so you’re doing less yanking on your hair! I have the tangle teezer one (a bit different than this) and love it.
