u can try massaging your nails with warm oil olive once a week for 10 minutes,then eventually use also strengthening base coat-I've used l'oréal and i was very satisfied with it.

Take a B-complex Vitamin every day with a meal and your nails and your hair will grow. Besides its good for you anyway. But it is important to take only one, Vitamin B is oil soluble and not water soluble like Vitamin C and it stores in your body, if you think I take two, don't. Too much is toxic. Also its important to take them with a meal, preferably your evening meal, because the taste is not good and during the day they can repeat the taste in your mouth, therefore taken at night will eliminate that. Good Luck with your mum. You have to remember, most of the time we don't eat properly all the stuff we should and taking also 500mg of Vitamin C is also important.
Go to the drug store and get yourself a bottle of clear nail polish, doesn't have to be expensive, this will protect your nails while they grow.

Well if your mom lets you were nail polish, you can go to any grocery store or retail store. They carry what is called hard as nails, and some other brands( like ones with kelp - the natural way) they are clear not colorful polishes. They help your nails grow and not break. My mother used to put clear coat on twice a day and that helped her nail breaking problem as well.

If you want your nails to grow keep them short throughout the winter when they're at their weakest and come summer you can let them grow with super strength with the aid of the sun.
Jelly (or jello) does help too - eat it, don't dip your fingers in it as some clot once did.
Hope it helps and remember Mum's are the best!

Eat lots of Jello or other similar gelatin. The gelatin protein will strengthen your nails. Eggs are another good source of protein.
You can paint your nails with clear polish to protect them - most top coats now are fortified with protein to help protect and strengthen nails.
Here's a good article to read on strengthening nails: http://www.howtodothings.com/fashion-and-personal-care/a2650-how-to-strengthen-nails.html

Try using a nail hardener. Its like clear nail polish, but it helps your nails grow and keep them strong. You can get that at any CVS, Walgreens, or any Wal-Mart.
