Re: Nail Tips...
I would use Nailtek level 2. Also be prepared for them to take close to 6 months to get some strength back. I also keep mine very short while I try to strengthen them.

I was going to say the same thing.
Keep that clear polish on them everyday and be patient. And yes, don't try growing them long until it's grown out, but before you know it they will be beautiful!
Mine are strong and the longest they have ever been, even before tips!

Re: Nail Tips...
I have an awesome product that has made my nails very hard. I keep it at the nail salon so I don't know the name. I will do an eta (edit to add not est. time of arrival, lol) when I get back from my mani around 10:00am. It was not expensive but works miracles.

I love nailtek - I also tell people to cotinuously clip their nails that way they are filing them short constantly - once they are strong then you can start to grow them longer

Re: Nail Tips...
I had my wraps on for YEARS and I finally took them off a few months ago. Nailtique didn't work for me. It just took time and some Sally Hansen Hard as Nails to make them strong again.

Just what I was going to say. I love Sally Hansen products. I think the Nailtique (sp) is over rated.

Nailtique (Nailtek is the knock off of Nailtique)is definitly overpriced and the Sally Hansen products are also really good too. I like the Miracle Cure in the blue bottle.

Re: Nail Tips...
Nailtek or Nailtique will protect them until they grow out.
I hate that....that's why I stoppped getting them. Tips wreck your nails.
