My first ever client was a severe nail (and skin) biter, with the tiniest nail beds ever.
At her first reballance 7 nails were gone!! Several weeks down the line and she now has lovely nails and I can tell that she is looking after them well.
And she is so excited that she can also now see her 'own' nails under the free edge.
She is now asking me when she can have the enhancements removed and just have her natural nails.
I have suggested that we wait until they are all a constant length but I am worried that her own nails are going to be quite weak/soft and that she'll end up with breakages that will put her back to square one.
I'm so proud of her and how well she has done and want to leave her with lovely nails that she can be proud of too, so what is the recommended way forward with a reformed biter? When do we go natural and how can I help her keep them tip top?
