Documenting a Nail Regrowing

by Holly Schippers | September 13, 2019 | Bookmark +

We have all seen nails that have been damaged in one way or another. Have you ever documented the outgrowth? This year a friend who does carpentry was kind enough to indulge this nail geek and take pictures throughout the regrowth process. It takes months, as we all know, and the changes were fascinating to observe. Being able to actually see the pictures next to each other is interesting because we can compare the growth, the color change, the texture change, and just generally geek out! I did provide him with some quality nail oil, he does admit to not using it every single day though, ha ha. I hope these photos tickle your inner nail geek as much as they thrilled mine!
