Maintaining healthy fingernails that look fashionable doesn’t have to be expensive or time-consuming.   Following the tips below would help you maintain a healthy nail and avoid infections

Trimming

Trimming nail regularly helps you to maintain healthy nails and helps to avoid snagging or breaking.  

Moisturize cuticles

As part of regular nail care to maintain healthy nails, moisturizing cuticles and not even pushing them back or trimming them at all, even during a professional manicure is preferable.

Use nail brush to clean

Scrubbing the nail  gently with an old-fashioned nail brush  ensures  healthier  nails than cleaning under the nails using long, pointy tools, both at home and during manicures, such cleaning by some women, according to experts, risks infection.

Don’t neglect signs of infection

Don’t neglect signs of fungi infection. If you see signs of infection like redness, swelling and pain check in with your doctor for the needed nail care and as such ensure your fingernails are healthy.

Wear dish gloves

Frequently immersing hands in hot, soapy water   to wash dishes can weaken even strong nails, mostly because this process dries them out along with the rest of the skin on your hands. Protective nail care calls for wearing gloves to protect your hands while you scrub.

Make use of polish

Wear gloves for better nail care when working with your hands, such as when you’re gardening or housecleaning, to protect the polish and keep dirt out of your nails.
