I've been a nail biter all my life. I've now grown some and they are coming in discolored. What can I do?

Question

I've been wearing tips since Feb. But I've had tips before and my nails have grown in this color. My toenails are the same color. Can I do anything to change them to white?

Answer 1

You can do one of these things to "bleach" your nails:

1) Soak your nails in dissolved denture tablet.

2) Swipe your nails w/ a cotton pad soaked w/ hydrogen peroxide. Rinse w/ water afterwards.

3) Apply tooth whitening strips to your nails for a few minutes. Remove & rinse well w/ water.

As your nails grow out use a good cuticle balm, jojoba oil or plain Chapstick to keep them moist.

Answer 2

Yeah... I don't know what these people are talking about... the only answer so far that makes sense is about the vitamins... that may help.

Otherise it is usually due to a fungus under the nails. If your nails seem more brittle than usual, then that is definitely the cause. But that is not always a symptom. if this is the case, then you just need to go to a doctor and they can either giv you a topical treatment or an oral medication. I would suggest the topical treatment over the oral. If you ingest some pill, whatever the prescription is may have some other effect elsewhere in the body. Topical treatment has less chance of side effects.

The most usefull and easyest thing is the lemon juce!U can use it for making ur nail color whiter and your nails more healthy!U can use it very day or twise in a day! U can use just juce of it by rubbing juice wadded in cotton tampon in nails or u can put your figers inside of half cuted lemon for 10-15 minutes every day!If u will do it even 2 weeks u will see results! ;)

Answer 4

you may "think of" something you pick yet that doesn't make it genuine. i will think of I even have fluffy crimson fur and wings, yet when I step out of the third floor window and attempt to fly, i'm going to verify i'm no longer able to in a 2d. God owes us no longer something. He has given us each little thing we've and are: existence, a physique, a planet to outlive...and, btw, the potential for understanding Him in my opinion by Jesus Christ. We do our suited by fact we pick to, no longer for any eventual "reward." once you're doing stuff for applause, reward, or popularity, that's no longer altruistic. it relatively is horse-purchasing and advertising.

Answer 5

discoloring nails is to do with vitamin deficiency
try vitamin tablets for a month and then review

also paint them so u arent looking at them all the time and are tempted to nibble

Answer 6

Soak them in gelatin to make them stronger and healthier and also rub lemons on the nails to get rid of the stains.
