The best way to strengthen your nails is cultivating and then maintaining healthy nails. If you want to make your nails healthy and consequently stronger, there are simple tips to make that happen. You need to pay attention to your nails: how they look and also how they feel. If there's something that wrong with your nails, then you should take measures to remedy the problem as soon as possible. One of the crucial aspects of nail care, the one that could be the most important regardless of the condition of the nails is maintenance.

The steps in cultivating and maintaining healthy nails are quite simple. You need to keep your nails trimmed. That doesn't necessarily mean short, but keep them shaped and filed.
