Six Common Nail Snags1. Ingrown NailsHow this can happen: Painful ingrowns are concern for you who improperly trim your nails or wearing tight-fitting shoes.Watch for nail plates that grow very curved or flat and wide, since people with these growth pattern will be more prone to ingrowns How to prevent and fix this problem - Trim your nails properly: Don't try to cut it too short, don't cut on the sides. File your nails with a straight shapes, not too sharped and not too rounded - To complete avoid ingrowns: I recommend that you go to see a podiatrist for surgical methods that will fix the problem for good. 2. Yellow NailsHow this can happen: Nails will turn yellow over time from regular coats of polish. The natural nail is made up of keratin proteins and through keratin is strong, it's also porous and easily absorbs pigment.Treat and Prevent: - Avoid low-quality nail polishes, since they contains more dyes. - A base coat will also help prevent staining. - Always remove polish with acetone because it dissolves enamel quicker and contains less harmful solvents. - Try not to rub the polish (and its pigments) into nails when removing. 3. PeelingHow this can happen: When you spot peeling your nails and exposure to water, exessive dish washing, for example, can ravage nails.The tiny space and void between the nail's layer trap moisture and cause the nail to swell and change shape. When this trapped water eventually evaporates, the nail shrinks. This repeated expansion and contraction weakens the nail plate layers, which means nails begin to peel and weaken. Treat and Prevent: - Rescue nails with oils - Keeping nails coated either with a thin coat of enamel, gel or polymer to slowdown the loss of natural oils. This also acts as a shield, helping to prevent the oldest nail cells 9 at the edge of the nail) from peeling. 4. RidgesHow this can happen: You may have noticed ridges on your nails. As we mature, small narrow ridges appear vertically on the nail plate from the cuticle to the free adge because nail growth slows down. Treat and Prevent:- You should slightly puff the ridges with a low abrasive file, but be careful not to over do it, since this could trigger thinning and cause damage. - Also use a ridge-filling base coat to create a smooth, polish-ready surface. 5. Fungal InfectionsHow this can happen:- Walking barefoot in damp public areas may lead to a fungal infection. - So can previous injuries, infection to the nail or a weakened immune system. - Shoes are also a prime breeding graound for fungus to grow. Fungus eats the keratin in our nail plate, causing it to swell and break apart Treat and Prevent: - Wear flip-flops in the public: gym shower,... - See a podiatrist. 6. White SpotsHow this can happen: When you go overboard with nail polish removers, you may notice a white, flatky appearnce on the nail's surface. This is indicates the nail's natural oils and moisture have been zapped.Treat and Prevent: - Use the solvent sparingly and choose one with moisturizing agents. - Everyday use of oils will maintain the perfect balance of moisture, reducing white spots from the nails
