How to repair the nail
Often the tear forces the afflicted person to shorten all fingernails. But there are also methods to repair the crack and thus prevent the shortening of the maintained nail. One possibility is to have the nail treated in a professional nail studio.
The specialists usually resort to a special lacquer, which can be hardened under UV light and then filed into shape. But there is also a solution for those who do not have time to go to a nail studio or are looking for a cheaper alternative. One possibility is to treat the crack with an instant adhesive.
This works in principle like a superglue. When working with the adhesive, care should therefore be taken as it should not come into contact with the skin. Another method to save the nail became popular by an internet video.
In this solution, a tea bag is first cut open and its contents removed, leaving only the clean bag. From this a small rectangle is cut out.Now the cracked nail is painted with a base coat, the cut out piece of the teabag is pressed on the nail and the nail is painted again with base coat. Then a covering normal nail polish can be applied and the nail is saved.
