[@NativeNYerChicHK]

Girl I been using silk & acrylic to mend broken nails for 30 years!! It’s the only thing that works for me to grow out a break! It’s an old tried & true trick actually 😘

[@Hairitage93]

It's important to remember that everyone isn't interested in using acrylic powder to fix a natural nail break, especially since one of the monomers that is still (unregulatedly) used to activate and set the acrylic powder today is highly toxic to the body, deemed poisonous by the FDA, and has been banned in 30 States for about 12 years now, technically. Using dip powder to help fix a natural nail break is an updated and safe DIY solution that is more accessible for most people, and is also easier to use, since it comes in a 1-2-3 step system. Dip powder is also a solution that I do not suggest to be confused or compared to the application of acrylic products, for health reasons.

[@gabriels.6979]

@@Hairitage93 actually dip powder is just acrylic powder but in a slightly thinner powder version that's hardened with the "activator" which is a mixture of ethyl acetate, acetone and isopropyl alcohol that makes the polymethylmethacrylate (acrylic) harden faster without the monomer part being involved. Also ,as you say, its important to remember that acrylic (WHEN USED CORRECTLY) is not dangerous and does not cause harm to the nail, if you want to talk about the dangers of MMA (methyl methacrylate in LIQUID form) that's good but don't forget to inform that there's also EMA (ethyl methacrylate) which is the safe monomer that is mostly used nowadays, explain the difference or inform yourself before making people scared of acrylic because of bad experiences you've had or as such.

[@Hairitage93]

Ah yes ✨ if dizziness, light-headness, fainting, skin irritations and (in the long-term) nervous system damage is ok for you, EMA might not be so bad after all. References consider those symptoms "low concern" anyways. Just have to see again in 10 years or so...or not 😅 yolo 🤷🏾‍♀️✨ All I know is that those professional nail techs have been keeping those face masks faithfully on during the day and during each of their services, (before and during the panasonic 😷) so yeah, the mindful nail techs might be onto something 🥰✨

[@NativeNYerChicHK]

@@Hairitage93 Well, the Acrylic kit I used was many moons ago was specifically for fixing breaks, you paint over the silk on your nail with their glue, dip your nail into the powder and then paint activator over it, exactly like today’s dip and exactly what you’re doing here. But the activator in that old kit had an odor that could definitely get you high, or kill a small animal 😂🤣😂 Toxic, no doubt about it... But since the process was a dip, I eventually just switched to the newer and better dip acrylic with the lesser fumes. Exactly what you’re doing here. Much safer. I still consider it acrylic but dip is the correct term.

[@NativeNYerChicHK]

@@Hairitage93 Also, I failed to mention, your nails are gorgeous 😘

[@HippieP629]

As a man in architecture, this reminds me of construction. Makes a lot of sense to use silk that acts like rebar and the glue like layers of concrete or sheathing. I've had the same crack on my thumb for 5 or 6 yrs. PITA. I'll give your method a shot. Thanks a lot

[@annamariexo3295]

I LOVE dip powder! My nails are naturally very weak and thin so dip powder is the only way I can grow out my natural nails! Loved seeing your take on the dip powder & I appreciate how you always show us your failures and how you turned them into successes!❤️

[@LoreenBuford]

Thanks for this great video. I had 3 broken nails like yours (2 on the left 1 on the right). I followed your instructions and it works so well my nails are really long now, and my husband has complimented me on them. He said they were glowing and I was sitting across the room from him! I use the "french tip" style dipping and you can't tell any are broken. I think I'm just going to keep them at a nice length but not so long that I cannot type without slipping into the cracks of the keyboard.😂 Thanks again for the great instructions.

[@kathy_xander]

I used to have a really bad nail biting habit. And, my nails would only grow to a certain length, then break. I started watching your videos, and they inspired me to grow my nails out! I started a nail care routine, and they are already growing past what they used to. Tysm!!!

[@joblank74]

Like you I have been on a natural nail journey. So I have really enjoyed your content over time. Like u I have been seeking a permanent solution to cracked and broken nails. You went the acrylic route, I chose gel. I think you would like gel too. I use a brush on builder gel to glue the breaks, then apply a coat of gel on the top and bottom of the nail. The bonus of gel is using it for preventing breaks. I apply a gel overlay on my nails, it provides protection and added strength. It’s clear so it just looks like natural nails.

[@mrs.k6169]

I broke my nail so bad and this video on the same day came on my suggestions! I ordered the supplies that night! Fixed my nail! Omg it's the best ever! Hardly notice which ones broken and I've been using it as usual and no weakening! I'm so happy 😊❤️ my parents wedding was today and my nails look great! Thank you!!

[@mrs.k6169]

Omg thank you! I just broke my nail so bad today and this came up on my recommendations. It broke nearly in the middle of my nail bed half way across 😭 And My parents vow renewal for their 25th anniversary is in 10 days and I was so proud about how long my nails have gotten and was ready to dec them out for the big day, but then this happened 😭 now I can find these items and fix it! ❤️

[@peggyt1243]

I thought it was just me. Mine get to a certain length and I pull out the clippers and take them back. BTW my nails are natural, no tips, no gel just nail polish.

[@arnay08]

I get nail breaks like yours pretty often too. The dip powder system has worked very well for me. The silk wrap on its own was never enough to hold my breaks in place until they grew out. I wonder if the brand of dip makes a difference. I use ASP Quick Dip and it’s held minor and severe breaks in place for months. I have a clean break on my pinky nail that’s been going strong for over a month now. Almost grown out 😊 These days I use clear dip on all of my nails. It’s helped me grow and maintain long nails. Watching your videos has also saved countless nails in the past and really inspired my own nail growth. Looking forward to more content in the future!

[@justapeach8859]

I needed this video. My entire left hand broke down to the finger on every nail because I left my nails naked after removing my manicure and then went to sleep 😔 I'm going to cut them all down this time, but hopefully I can hold on to them all this time and repair the breaks instead

I am so glad that I happened upon your channel while searching for how to fix your real nail and make it last. The only thing I do not have is silk wraps. So I'm going to have to look for an alternative. I don't like using tea bags. You should keep two layers of dip powder on your natural nails since they are long. It will keep them stronger! You have gorgeous nails!

[@lorelaikaplan]

Instead of silkwrap you can actually use teabags! Just glue it over the crack

Be serious about this❤ God is holy and righteous God is love So either you would play around because you don't believe hell exist or you don't believe you're going there but the bible makes it very clear The path to destruction is wide and easy many are on it the path to eternal life is hard and nerrow very few find it and to get into heaven u can only enter through the nerrow gate❤ You dont have to wait until you die to know if youre going to heaven you can know right now 100% where youre going❤ Satan doesnt rule hell this is a myth when lucifer known as satan now became prideful and rebelled against God he took many angels with him Demons are fallen angels we live in a spirital and physical world so hell was made for punishment for satan and his angels and the reason why people go there is because they Align themsleves with the devil in SIN! Sin separates us from God and the wages of sin is death if youre found guilty with one sin on judgment day you will not enter the kingdom of heaven so the thing is We us humans broken Gods law and jesus paid the fine! So the good news is you dont have to go to hell if you accept him as your lord and savior! God offered us eternal life as a free gift and you receive it by faith! You dont have to work for it you dont have to pay all you have to do is receive it by faith❤ Don't expect Gods best when you always give him your least don't reject him anymore let him come in and change your life❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Thanks for sharing this very useful information. My nails have been brittle since menopause but I recently started using Vita Protein Collagen Peptides Powder. It didn’t work right away but about six months later, my nails are longer than I can remember them being. I recently cracked the right index nail. I used the teabag method but I may have to try this method. BTW, I noticed that you have the same condition that I have, hyponychium: the skin that grows up underneath the nail past the nail bed. I want to share with you and everyone reading that may have this similar condition. It doesn’t matter if my nails are short or long. Sometimes, the skin separates from the nail. It hurts. I discovered that if I dab a little antibiotic ointment where the nail and skin are separated, it will heal fast.

I was thinking of trying a hard gel but after seeing this video, I may need to do dip. Have you ever tried a hard gel? If so, how does it compare? I once had a repair done while on vacation that worked brilliantly and was nice and thin, but I couldn’t speak the same language as the tech so I couldn’t figure out what she did. It looked like maybe a builder or hard gel with a silk. When I tried it with soft gel and silk it broke off.

There was no way my natural long nails would have survived on their own so I'm back on the nail growth journey

@@Livinglacquered I don't recommend dip powder on the whole nail plate to people in general. It's unnecessary. If you have a break, you can use a sliver of nail silk to repair the break with glue and/or gel+resin but only to repair the break, not to cover the entire nail plate. P.S. you are correct, Itumeleng mis-spoke and meant nail plate.

Before seeing your vid. I got a nail break in two nails. I had been doing dip powder the gel method bcuz I found I am sensitive to dip liquids. Anyway I had remembered the silk wrap/tea bag trick to fix broken nails. I didn't have silk wrap so I used a teabag. I applied the teabag and gel onto the nail, cured and then did the dip powder process like I normally do. It's strong and holding up so far. But next time I want to try using the nail glue and silk wrap to see if it's a stronger hold. Thanks for the tips.

I put nail glue on the crack and seal, then take some bits of cotton from a cotton ball and push it into the wet glue. Then use a pair of tweezers to move the cotton around until it covers the crack completely and the surrounding area. Then I buff to make it smooth and usually put another layer of nail glue to top it off, then I can continue my nails like normal. It comes out completely smooth and undetectable.

The pink, white and gold nano is one of my favourites off yours. As you know, I've been off and on with my natural nail journey, and went back to acrylics. The third lock down was enforced in the U.K.in December, and I had my last, pre lock down infill just before it started. We're now in mid March and.... Whaddya know!! My nails are long and strong and my own. I started to do my own infill, then changed to gel, then started adding a bit of acrylic powder to each layer of gel. After a base coat, two layers of builder gel and acrylic powder, finished with a glossy top coat and I finally have the nails I've dreamed of, but just cannot achieve myself. I'm certain that's down to medication, because I have very poor hair too. I cure each layer under an LED lamp, before applying the next, so that it's all cooked through. I honestly don't see how my gels are any more 'cheating' than the 17 layers of nail strengtheners I was putting on each week, and it's far less time consuming. I did all my research on proper practices first, bought quality products from Amazon, and cracked on. My nails look like they have a coating on them, but I'm quite happy with that! Do you think you're getting more splits due to the Nail shape? I honestly think square nails are strongest. It seems to be for me, anyway. Great to see the girls back to their best!!!

So glad you’re back! Your videos make me nice and drowsy! That is a massive compliment because I watch nail vids to help me fall asleep, and only the best succeed 😉

It been a long time since you posted but I love this video❤

[@moni1952]

My nails are long but the tip broke off and I didn't want to file them all down so I glued it on, used a teabag, and acrylic clear powder and buffed it with an electronic nail file. Then I polished it with a gel topcoat. It's been holding up pretty well.

[@aurasoular6804]

You explain things so well! Great video 🤗✨

[@cutequeen2617]

Can you do a video on how to fix nail shredding or how to make your nails stronger? Btw ❤ your videos

[@Tippers94]

Omg exactly. Mine don't even grow out because the edge of my nail splits and is so weak it breaks off and disappears. About to start using builder gel and I hope it works

[@justdeenie00]

For me I use a thin layer of hard gel and sprinkle acrylic over it, cure in uv light and your nail is fixed. Looks natural and the layer is thin. when it grows out lightly file and use a soft gel to refill.

I am going to try this today, but I miss something. After you applied the silk wrap, glue, then buff what did you apply after that buff? Thank You

[@diannal.5180]

Where are you? Miss you and your videos!!!!!

[@bronzefire4999]

Love your natural nails. Show me the way please. Tired of my nails breaking off. I'm seriously thinking of hanging this glam nail biz up. Pain "cannot " = beauty.

[@janesmith1917]

Before we go watching it that's easy get a piece of tea bag caught a little piece off and use crazy grew over your crack of now let go out after buffing. Keep good clean strong nail polish on.

Girl what vitamins do YOU USE??? Tune me in!! 😍😍😍😍

[@niccolethomas4591]

I must say, I am jealous of these nails, they look nice and cuticles on point. I'm so heavy handed, 🙄oh well back to the short nails.

[@familyguy2698]

Are you a professional? Bc your nails are perfect 🤩

[@cocounabella]

You made such a great video! Thank you so much for sharing!

[@cocounabella]

Hi Hairatage, did you use the glue to seal the silk wrap?

[@AnakinSkywalker-xr1th]

I wish I could ask you some questions directly. My nails have ALWAYS been paper thin and extremely delicate and when they break, they break waaaayyyyyyyy past the quick. It's so painful. I'm going to try to dive into your routines where I can! I just have soooo many questions!

[@KeerthanaRameshigot7]

My nails used to be the same way! I started using OPI nail envy as a base coat and my nails have grown out so beautifully! Have 1-2 coats on at all times and your nails should be hard in no time!

[@LHarris3000]
