We have always been taught at home and in school that keeping your hands and nails clean is a must to stay healthy and clean
. Even as adults this is still reminded of us through television and commercials but still not many pay attention to this. Nail care is still correct one of the things neglected in proper hygiene.
When people talk about nail care it's usually just the females that pay attention or would be interested but this should apply to both males and females. Females are not the only ones with nails and manicures are not only for the rich and famous. Everyone should be getting manicures as the word means proper care of the hands and nails.
Many would be guilty of the fact that they sometime use their nails as tools. Don't use your nails as substitute tools. They can break and get damaged. This can lead to a lot of discomfort and not only that you nails could get infected and would not grow like they use to.
When dealing with proper nail care and nail files, not everything you see actors in movies do you actually follow. There is a right and wrong way to file your nails. Proper filing would result to proper nail growth and prevent damage. Don't file like your trying to file metal or some other sharp object. File from the corner of your nail to the center while following the groves.
Keep your hands clean and hydrated as part of your nail care. This will keep your hands and nails glossy and young looking. Yes your nails can get dehydrated and you would not want this to happen because this would cause your nails to break easily and you would not want your nails looking like a corpse's nails. Don't let the skin in your hands dry as well, there are hands and nail moisturizers, whiteners, and strengtheners in the market today and you can just pick the one that best suits you.
Right nail care is not difficult to achieve. It just takes commitment and awareness in the individual that their nails play a role in their life. They should not take it for granted and take good care of it. Like what is said your hands and nails reflect whether or not you're a clean individual or not and no one like dirty people.
