Hi Peeps,
I'm sure this Question has been asked a thousand times before and I have looked through the forum but I just wanted to get clarification.
Will damage from overfiling every grow out ??
I have just started the Essential nails Home course and now realise the damage I have been doing to myself by incorrect filing.
I stupidly bought a DIY Kit (In Superdrug I think it was) many a few years ago and of course having no experience I overfiled my thumbs trying to blend the tips, ever since I have had a Considerable groove running across my thumb from Left to Right and dipping down from the crown to my Free Edge.
The Free edge also continuously cracks vertically as soon as it starts to get any decent length.
My sister who is a serial Nail Tip wearer also recently had a rebalance done on her holidays and when she removed her tips she found one side of her Right Index finger has been filed right down leaving her with a very mishapen finger nail and wonky free edge. She did say that particular nail had severe lifting on that side before the rebalance, So No prizes for guessing what went on there.
Her Fingers are also covered in 'Pink' areas from obvious over filing.
So I'm wondering will her fingers and my Thumb ever recover ??
I have started to use Cuticle Oil daily on my nails but I think I'm suffering from Eggshell nails also as they are still V Soft and splitting all the time.
Please Help !!
I Don't want to have skanky nails when I qualify as this will look very bad to Potential Customers.
