Here are some nail tips
NEVER file your nails in a back & fourth motion, this causes your nails to split or fray. File from corner to center. You should also be sure not to use a metal file.
Try Sally Hansen's advanced hard as nails, used as a base & top coat
Use colors that have either a hardening formula or a strengthening formula. You polish remover should also have strengtheners in it.
If your hads are going to be in water or you'll be dealing with chemicals wear protective gloves.
If you need anymore help just ask or visit my forum:

It's how you file and a dire lack of moisture.
Only file nails after they've been washed or soaked. Dry nails are brittle, moist nails are pliable.
File from UNDERNEATH the nail, not of the surface. This takes a lot longer and you can only file in one direction rather than seasawing.
Moisturize your cuticles multiple times a day and massage the cream from the tip of the nail back toward the first knuckle.
Wear a top coat to protect the surface of the nail.
Don't expect results for several months, until the nail entirely grows out from the nail bed.

Everyone is different, the best thing you should do is try different products. Try one for at least a week if that doesn't work then try another one for another week until you find a nail product that works. There are so many out there now adays you should find one that works for you.

Stop wetting your nails with water as much as possible.

Try drinking Knox Gelatin in a warm beverage. It works and I bet your mom and maybe your grandma used it.

you can try using red nail polish overnight and remove it in the morning.
