These are truly the most gorgeous natural nails I’ve ever seen - what an incredible, inspiring transformation with such GENTLE, consistent, and sensible care. Wow wow wow! Thank you so much to her and to you for sharing this with us. It truly shoes the proof of what you preach. Not that I needed convincing, but it’s still an absolutely incredible transformation!

Thank you! My nails were similar to the first picture and I was despairing that they would never be better. Since watching this video I have: *stopped all hardeners and nail polishes *been using various oils and urea cream on my nails *doing warm oil soaks *regularly filing and they are so much better already after about 3 weeks. They feel glossy and are naturally shiny.

2 weeks on and the peeling is gone. One thumb nail had a bit of a split but I have filed it and it seems OK now.

This works! I saw this video and realized that water was causing my nails to peel and they looked terrible. I started applying oil to my nails several times throughout the day, especially after water exposure, and started wearing gloves at work to keep my hands clean and not need to wash as often. I was shocked to see my hands and nails looking better immediately. Within a couple days I could see real improvement. My nails no longer peel and break. It has been about 2 months. Thank you so much for your research, information, and suggestions!

Just one observation, the first picture comparison is not 3 months apart, but 1 year and 3 months (from March 2021 to June 2022)

Thanks to your viewer for sharing her experience. There are so many articles promoting buffing as an alternative to nail polish and using the word “cuticle” to refer to the proximal nail fold that consumers are confused. My nails have improved using your advice.

OMG 👏👏👏 perfection!!! Now you can see Anna, why we love you so much and why you’re so important in our lives❣️Thank you both👍❤️

How lovely, such an improvement! Well done to the lady and all credit to you Anna for inspiring her and providing your valuable advice.

I'm now in the process of working on my nails. I'm so glad I found your chain. I find all your videos helpful. Thank You!

That is such a great story from this girl. So glad she shared it. And a wonderful testament to your teaching and the help you give. Her nails are beautiful and you're right, she could be a hand model. Thank you both 💕💅

This could be my story with peeling nails ! I’ve gone through the same steps as your writer in trying to salvage my nails ,now I hope that by stopping buffing down the peeling portion of my nails I’ll have filled in the final piece to this nail puzzle. I’ve also just put my jojoba oil next to my kitchen sink as a reminder to apply after getting my hands wet. I believe the magic portion to healthy nails is patience which is something I’m sorely lacking . I hope that in a months time I can report back with my own positive results. Please thank your KZread fan for allowing you to share her story with us it was generous of her to put her experience down on paper. Your KZread channel is a font of good / honest information ,I’m very grateful I stumbled upon it. Now it’s up to me to put your advice into action. Thank you.

Amazing results, thanks for allowing us to see your progress, your nails are beautiful. Anna as always your technique for natural nails is incredible, thank you for all the you do 💐

So here is a quick summary of what to do and not to do for those who are a little bit lazy :)) DON'T!! -Do your own shellac and/or dip nails -Buff off the nail peelings -Keeping nails as short as possible (keep your natural nails short, but not down-to-the-skin short!) -Constantly apply new coats of protectant or polish. (It can actually be better to not wear any polish at all!) -Use a bunch of different supplm. or topicals too often (look at the ingredients and know what to look for and what to avoid! P.S, same with skin and haircare as well :)) ) DO! :)) -Wear gloves when doing jobs like washing dishes or sanding wood that could lead to water damage or simply break your nails.) -Use supplm. (supplements) that actually have ingredients proven to support nails/hair! -Use oils/serums that have been clinically proven to support nail growth or strength. Habits to stop: Stop buffing/removing peels! it doesn't help anything, and in fact can become the source of the problem! Stop wearing nail polish year-round on natural (or even gels/acrylics) nails. Nail polish should be ministered as a monthly/yearly treat, not a apply-it-whenever-it-chips thing. Stop using strengthened and hardeners unless you know for a fact that you have soft/bendy nails, because if you do not it can be bad for nails. Stop keeping your nails super short! Try to grow them out! Don't let them get super long, but maybe half of an average pinky finger at most. USE JOJOBA OIL AND OTHER NAIL-HELPING NATURAL OILS ON YOUR NAILS RIGOROUSLY! (Use nail oil and hot oil soaks.) File nails, try not to use cutters unless you use them on hangnails. File nails in a back-and-forth motion, not in one direction. LOVE YALL BYEE!!!

Why not keep the nails short???

I only discovered your channel today and have been binging your videos for hours ❤ Have been doing my own nails for over 25 years but am still learning so much new stuff through your detailed videos. Your gentle approach is so unique and refreshing to see but pretty much impossible to find in any salon. I have regretted every single manicure I ever got (total of maybe 40-50 in my life in various countries). I’ve seen it all: bleeding infected nail beds, uneven or unflattering shapes, filed down nail plates to “even” out etc. It then took weeks/months to get back to normal. Maybe you could do a video on your personal experience and what inspired you to do an approach that is so different than the mainstream. Thank you

Her nails are beautiful!! You are so kind to share your valuable information. Thank you!!

Love that you point out that it comes to consistency and gentle care and not some miracle product!!! Gotta put in the work for amazing results 😍 (And these results are beyond!)

WOW! Absolutely stunningly beautiful!!!! Congratulations on your resolve to stick to this regimen. The results are fantastic!!! Thank you so much for sharing with us all!!! 🤗😘👏🏻👐🏻

Wow gorgeous transformation!! Her natural smile lines are so perfect they look painted 💅🏼

Such beautiful result! Thank you for sharing it gives me hope and is encouraging to keep the regimen up! Thank you ❤

Great and inspiring! This is yet another example of what a wonderful and effective educator you are. I too have beautiful and healthy nails ever since a started following your channel. Congratulations!.

Beautiful! It's great to see how a natural and consistent routine can change the health of one's nails. Thank you for sharing this!💝

This is so lovely, thanks so much for sharing your photos and your experience. Your nails are absolutely stunning, I now have inspiration for my own journey!

My cuticles are healthy after watching and implementing what you have shown. Using the blue cross remover cuticle remover and glass cuticle remover I have found that I I do not have to cut my cuticles anymore! I never thought I could reverse that. Thank you for teaching us. I wish I could have my nails painted by you. I enjoy watching how you transform nails, lovely.

This is super helpful! My nails look very much as these at the start. I also buffed my nails down to get rid of the slices. After watching your tutorials for the last month I made the same changes. Nails are looking better. This video really confirms I'm on the right track. Thank you!

Thank you for the inspiration by showing us these beautiful nails. This woman is a good listener and star student! She did exactly what you teach us and her progress is proof. I’m so grateful for finding your channel in spring 2022. I’m still a picker, but never again will I ‘shine up’ my nails with a buffer and buff down those peels. I stopped doing that as soon as I found your channel. Anna, thank you so much for sharing your expertise! 🥰

This is amazing. Thank you so much for posting. I am in the same situation, ive been doing exactly the same believing it was correct. My doctor and nail advisor told me my nail deterioration was due to age ... now I know that's rubbish. I've just taken photos of my nails and will keep a photo diary weekly until they are as luscious as this lady's. I know they can be as they once were. Again, thank you for the inspiration and knowledge I haven't found elsewhere.

Oh my goodness. This email from her was as if I, myself, had written it. All the problems she had, all the things she tried, all the things she was doing incorrectly are ALL the things I have also done. I just found your channel last week and purchased most of the basic nail care items you described. They actually arrive this afternoon and I am committed to taking better care of my nails the RIGHT way and can't wait to begin. As I've been waiting for this order to arrive, I have been applying either nail oil or jojoba oil to my nails every time I wash my hands. I keep a bottle at each of the three sinks in our house so I have no excuses! Just by doing this one step, I am already seeing a bit of improvement. I am inspired to record my journey with photos, as your writer did, and will share on my social media so others can find you and follow as well. I am a crafter as are so many of my followers, and we all seem to struggle with nail problems due to the handling of paper, glues, paints, etc. I hope to be one of your success stories to share with them. Thank you for the great suggestions and tips here. I am now a faithful subbie!

Jojoba is the miracle oil for nails. I always apply it right onto my nails, top and bottom when bare. From the bottom when polished. My nails are the longest and strongest they've ever been since I started following Anna's videos. They were so weak and bendy before that they used to break if I looked at them funny. No more!

Great video. What an inspirational transformation. Thank you both for sharing. This is why we need your channel. We need someone to teach us how to get healthy and therefore beautiful nails.

Thanks to your viewer for sharing and to you for the no-nonsense advise. Brilliant transformation 👏

This was great. I have about the same issues as this person but only on my middle fingers, sometimes index. So this I felt like this was tailor made for me. I can already make some of the improvements she mentioned. Eg not filing the peel and letting it grow out. I already oil a lot but I will incorporate hot oil soak. The most difficult part is not painting my nails 😢

Wow!! What a transformation, absolutely beautiful nails, (and hands)!!

Amazing and inspiring! Thank you so much Anna and thanks so much to this viewer for sharing her story. ❤

Thanks, The Salon Life 🌸 You educate & inspire us!

Hi Anna - I have had the same experience. My nails were peeling, brittle. I started pushing back my cuticles and using cuticle oil several times a day (I had covid so it was something to do while I recovered. I also threw out all my nail polish and replaced it with Dazzle Dry (my manicurist has been using it for several years now). I cannot describe the difference. First, I no longer have super dry skin around my nails to pick at. My proximal fold is totally normal. Massive reduction in hang nails. And best of all, my nails are long and lovely. In fact, as I am typing this, I think I will have to file them down a bit so I can type!!! I don’t have before and after photos but take my word for it. An amazing result. Thank you for educating me!

What an incredible story and testament to the validity of your teachings, Anna! Thank you to this young lady for sharing her story. I feel like so very many of us can see similarities in the issues she experienced. My battered nails have fully recovered from a decade of acrylics, except for 3 issues: peeling on both of my pointer fingers, which makes them weak and break, stretched skin stuck to my left thumb for which I have to religiously use Kerasal, otherwise it wants to stick to my nail right away if I skip a few days or so, and lastly, ridgy nails….which I attribute to aging. Otherwise, my nails look pretty flippin’ healthy and nourished, all because of you, Anna ❤❤❤

I followed what this video says. Stopped nail paint, used opi repair mode and jojoba oil. Three months later my nails look like hers after years of not being able to grow them and have them peel all the time. Nail paint is an occasional luxury is what I have learnt if I want healthy nails. Thank you for posting this video!

Beautiful! Thanks for sharing your pictures.

congrats on your progress🎉

My nails have been a mess recently. Very much like her first pictures. I'm a secretary by day and a cashier at night, so a lot of paperwork and hand washing. I stopped using polish. I've begun using oil frequently, I use Kerasal intense night treatment before bed, stopped using my nippers and I've already seen an improvement. Oil is everything.

This is really encouraging and proof that with loads of TLC you can bring badly damaged nails back to life! I've been applying gel polish to my nails now for over 6 years. I applied full cover gelly tips to my nails back in May/June of this year, they looked lovely, but when I came to remove them after 3 weeks wear, the removal process left my nails in an awful state. My left thumbnail had a vertical split in it right down at the cuticle - I thought my nails would never be the same again! So I decided they would need loads of TLC, I made my own cuticle oil with - guess what - jojoba oil, vitamin E oil and a few drops of rose essential oil - it smells gorgeous. As well as the cuticle oil I also apply BP grade castor oil daily, it strengthens the nails and helps them to grow quickly - I use one of the refillable cuticle oil pens. I keep them short just by filing - not cutting. They are looking really good now and the strongest I've ever known them to be and the vertical split is virtually gone, it's grown right out to the tip of my nail now so a couple more weeks of care and it'll be gone. So many people have left comments saying this KZread video could be talking about their own nails - myself included - so thank you for sharing this with us.

These tips have transformed my nails!!! I recommend them to everybody

So many great tips! I might take a break from nail polish and start with oil.

Exactly same issue and now have been using jojoba oil just for 3 weeks and already see huge improvement!

What is the secret to getting such bright white and perfectly symmetrical white tips?! Mine are so uneven and nowhere near as white as these lovely nails...

I love this story, these beautiful nails are my goal! For the last month I have been using jojoba oil after every hand wash , Kerasal cream once a day and no nail polish. Warm oil treatment once a week and I also treated myself to a bottle of OPI repair mode (which I really like) and some Cera Ve hand cream. My nails are better for sure and suddenly seem to grow quite fast, probably because they are breaking and peeling a lot less. However, I know I have some way to go yet so I keep them very short and I’ll just persevere. Whenever I need inspiration I watch this video again, I love it and I love your channel, it’s absolutely brilliant. Thank you! 💅🏻💕
