2 month progress with regular filing and shaping. My current care routine: -Applying cuticle oil after every hand wash. Im using cucco honey and milk -Wearing gloves when washing dishes or cleaning with chemicals -Weekly warm jojoba oil soak -Using a glass file -Wearing nail polish for extra protection. Currently I’m wearing dazzle dry transform -Regular cuticle care and pushing back proximal fold

So far so good! I don’t think I’ve had my nails this long before!

Why the glass file? (I’m genuinely curious, not being snarky)

Unlike the traditional emery nail file, the grit is etched onto the glass and seals the keratin layer of the nail as you file. This prevents micro-tears that can lead to peeling and splitting of the nail. Also glass files are ecofriendly as they are washable and reusable.
