My polish only stays on a day or two, and even after 24 hours, I would still be able to dent the polish.<br /><br />I decided to get acrylics. It was the best decision ever. I now spend about $40 ever 3-4 weeks to have them done and painted, and now have beautiful, long, strong nails. I go to a reputable salon, and have a fab nail tech, Sarah. My nails will have no permanent damage if and when I choose to get my acrylics off.<br /><br />The best thing is that my polish only takes about 10 min to dry fully, and I can wear the same polish for about 2 weeks with no chipping, and only have to take it off because of the growth at the cuticles.<br /><br />For me, acrylics were the best thing ever. I'm very sporty and do a lot with my hands, and I think I've broken 3 nails in the year I've been getting acrylics. It's definitely worth the consideration.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12776326777709529163noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927906457480817763.post-28858579007262017762010-07-27T11:49:37.835+12:002010-07-27T11:49:37.835+12:00Thanks for the help girls.

I'm going to go and find some Biotin and prenatal vitamins (and hope my partner doesn't find them and jump to the wrong conclusion) and hope that they help :)Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280496331096345122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927906457480817763.post-3920004374550480772010-07-27T05:09:38.544+12:002010-07-27T05:09:38.544+12:00I'm in the same boat.

If I eat poorly, or not enough they begin to show it. <br />I used to use Sally Hansen "Hard as wraps" and it worked great but it can peel off. Actually it made polish removal very easy hehe. It hasnt been easy for me to find lately though.<br /><br />I love your blog and Im now following!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07387158053458161345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927906457480817763.post-10616012607150468092010-07-27T04:31:29.671+12:002010-07-27T04:31:29.671+12:00I use NailTek II or III every time I polish and I ...I use NailTek II or III every time I polish and I think it's helped build stronger nails (more than OPI's did).Bunny Masseusehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16336087365707596513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6927906457480817763.post-27843393721223807422010-07-27T04:26:51.965+12:002010-07-27T04:26:51.965+12:00The one thing that has made the biggest difference...The one thing that has made the biggest difference in mine is taking prenatal vitamins.

Try some of the mineral Biotin, it's helped me. I still have a little peeling on the edges of my nails.
