Quick question!

Hi guys!  I just have a quick question.  I've been growing my nails from nothing since I started writing at the beginning of the month.  Besides the two I've broken (one of which is growing great and the other I just did *bummer*) they've been doing great.  Except the pointer finger on my right hand.  I don't photograph my right hand much, and that isn't why... But it won't grow!  It's still pretty much nothing.  It's starting to worry me?  Annoy me?  IDK.  I guess my question is this:  Has this ever happened to you?  If it has, what did you do to help it grow?  Thanks for looking, vote in my poll!

Thanks!

    It has! I have always had very unhealthy and slow growing nails, and to get them stronger and to grow I started remembering to take my multivitamin daily, drank more milk, moisturized my cuticles and hands a lot, and used two coats of a strengthening base coat. My favorite strengthening base coats are Orly Calcium Shield, Seche Restore, and Seche Rebuild, with Seche Rebuild being the one that produced the best results. Good luck!

    @Tara M
    I've been using Seche Rebuild... It's just lost on this ONE nail! I bought some Burt's Bees cuticle cream and I've been massaging it on several times a day. Hope this helps! Thanks so much for answering :)

    i think the nails on my right had grow slow too. good thing i am right handed so i do my designs on the left hand.

    i used to have weak brittle nails. that when they reach a certain length, they'd chip or break.

    ive been using orly calcium shield and i think it is doing wonders to my nails.

    i just recently cut them short though because they were getting too yellow at the tips.

    i have gel nails now :)

    I've found that the Sally Hansen growth base coat is the best for making my nails grow whenever one breaks and i get upset and cut them all off!

    I have the same problem really and I've always thought it's because it's just a finger we use a lot and its nails suffers from a lot of microscopic wear. So I don't think it's because it doesn't grow but because we just happen to bump into surfaces more with those nails than for example our ring finger nails if that makes sense.

    @ClaudiaThat does make a lot of sense! We'll see after I use a new treatment for awhile, but I totally hear what you're sayin!
