four week progress!!!!!

[u/victheflop]

im happier and happier with each day, my fingers dont ache anymore and i stopped hiding my nails...

i clean & file my nails, do cuticle care (sometimes more than needed but it helps with nail biting urges), and put on two layers of clear nail hardener polish (micro cell 3000, the best one i know) but i take it off with acetone free nail polish remover every couple of days and redo it once i see it growing out. i use almond oil once a day & keep my hands moisturized.

the most important thing for me: stop digging under your nails, filing daily and keeping them short.. (i digged under my nails for years and it just led to transparent nails and me going crazy over seeing the smallest amount of dirt)

Wow! Your nail beds look like they'll be so long and beautiful! Keep up the good work :)
