This time last year, my nails were in a sorry state. After more harsh gel removals than I can count, my once strong, healthy nails were peeling, brittle, and essentially a shadow of their former selves. So, I went cold turkey; I paused all salon visits and focused on repairing them from the inside out.
As the months passed, I discovered some hero products: polishes that not only looked good but also nourished my nails, as well as some holy grail strengtheners and treatments. Currently, I'm not planning on heading back to the salon, and instead, I'm trying to nail (pun intended) my at-home manicure.
