I somehow have awesome nails. They naturally grow with perfect shaping, a tapered oval. They also grow very quickly, every 10 days I cut them off then boom & they're back. I don't even own an emery board, just clippers.
It isn't a matter of calcium with me, or yogurt or jello. Just genetics.
When dry they are very hard, when soaked I can actually bend them backwards without breaking.
I can remember a friends mom when I was a kid. She was a serious nail polish user and her fingernails ended up disgusting. Sort of yellowed and very soft. Yuck. I have no idea if it is related to using polish though.
Okay, now I'm jealous, LOL.
As to yellow nails: I think it has more to do with failing to use a clear base coat and a good nail polish remover. I've had my fingernails painted red quite often and never had this problem.
