So ya wanna know the secret eh? Let’s hope I don’t break my nails after this ¯_(ツ)_/¯
My HOW TO ACTUALLY GROW YOUR NAILS video is finally here! This has got to be one of the most requested videos from you guys ever! I had done some nail care videos back in the olden days, i.e. the no-face/no-voice simplynailogical era, but a lot has changed since then. The goal of this video is to cut through the bs “hacks”, gimmicks and vague advice and give you ACTUALLY HELPFUL information on how to grow your nails. Yes it’s long but I hope you guys take many things away from this (:

After this video whenever I look at my nails I think *you dare bite them and you’re going to hell*
thanks simply Nailogical!
16:07 me putting nails in mouth
I was sort of getting the idea that I should use the right tools for the job and not my fingernail. 🙂 yes thanks.
Without you I wouldn’t have stopped biting my nails!
its a little helpful BUT taking care of ur nails cuticle oil olive oil cuticle pusher whatever nail care thing u find like those witch i just spoke can strengthen ur nails much faster and grow them a bit more lemons and lime will speed the process of ur nail growth therefore u should still use nailcare products
When you haven’t bit your nails in a week, so you’re really proud of yourself. =,)
Me watching this bitting my nails 👁👄👁
@girlboss #2 did you stop biting? How did it go?
If you bite your nails you get maggots-
@S͜͡u͜͡n͜͡s͜͡e͜͡t͜͡ C͜͡h͜͡e͜͡r͜͡r͜͡y͜͡ oh yah, that’s true. Not necessarily maggots, but pinworms and other infectious bugs can be buried underneath the nail, when bitten off and eaten, you could get pinworms or other parasites
That’s literally how my mom is 😂
“Keep your nails out of water for long periods of time!”

girl you gotta just go like 2 months without biting and you wont want to bite your nails anymore it will be hard at first but trust me i used to bite my nails for 4 years and couldnt stop but just get through it. its so worth it
Bro I can relate- so hard
I bit them off but they grew again on my other hand 😂

Edit: THX FOR THE LIKES ANYWAYS ❤️😭💜
@h y u n n i e 🥀 mhmmmm unnie
hyram isn’t anything close to a dermatologist my gosh
SPONGE BOB WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
Amen!!!!! 🙏🏼 So true!
AND DR.MIKE IS MY MAIN DOCTOR
You’re never going to see this but let me just say thank you. Thank you so much for being an inspiration to so many and especially me. I graduated this year at 17 years old and I’ve always wanted to be a nail tech since I was 11. You’ve taught me so much and I can’t wait to start this journey.
That’s great! You are going to become an amazing nail tech 🙂 (You have learned from the best)
GOOD LUCK!
@Gabele Jade speaking of!! I just got my practice hand and all the other needs to start doing acrylics! Cant believe it’s happening☺️
@brianna riley I know this is a start to a great journey! I really wish you all the best!
me: wanting long and pretty nails sO bad
also me: plays piano, ukulele and guitar 4875208457 times a day
Same, I also play the piano-
Me chewing my nail and skin where the nail is:
Yeahhh
Bahahaha i feel your pain….its hard when you play instruments because you have no choice but to cut it so that you can play properly😩😩😭
@keepingupwithdoris I’ve been playing guitar since I was 7, now 16, use acrylic it will strengthen them massively and it won’t affect their growth, also take biotin before bed.
TIP! If you want to apply nail oil without having to do it with the pen. Search for a hand soap with jojoba oil in it! Then every time you wash your hands they get strengthened after getting wet and you don’t even have to think about doing it! I have used this for a few months and have gotten so many compliments on how nice my cuticles look!
@sk3lly whats your fucking problem why are you so pressed about a fucking emoticon? arent you the same person replacing letters for numbers in their username lol.. pathetic
@sk3lly stfu for real who gives you the right to be a kill joy I just like the face UwU
Thank you!!!
“If you go to a school where you are not allowed to wear colored nail polish, wear a clear nail polish.” I remember my teacher noticing it and she made me scratch it off under cold water. 😛
Luckily that was years ago, so… It’s not a problem anymore. 😀
@Bellatrissa phew
that sucks i have nails on and my teacher dont care!!!
Wtf that’s dumb
yo what the refrigerator that’s really mean
I seem to have finally kicked my nail bitting habit and I’m really pumped to grow out my nails nice and pretty for the first time in my life!! I’ve always wanted to wear nail polish but I avoided it in the past because I didn’t want to draw attention to my extremely short nails that didn’t even reach the ends of my finger tips. My goal is to have what Simply calls “short” nails and that will be very long for me. I’ll probably have to stick with the “short” nails since I work housekeeping and use my hands in my art hobbies a bunch. Thanks for all your fun videos Simply!!
Hey! I also stopped my nail biting habit after years lol I’m starting to wear nail polish again
Her: Don’t wet your nails
CDC: Wash your hand thoroughly, clean every centimeter and millimeter of you hands for at least 20 secs or count “Happy Birthday” 2x
Me:
She meant dont keep it in water for a very long time
You can wash them but have to moisturize often
The video was 3 years ago-
tip for this: paint the underside of your nail with a base coat. This will prevent water from soaking into your nail through the bottom and making them weak
“the actual secret to grow your nails is….. DO NOT BREAK THEM”
* *Cristine just exposed the secret* *
i think “Duck Nails” should be a record breaking single
Number 1 on the charts 😂😂
Yaaaasss
@Kripa George LOLLL
Pun intended lol
my dream nails are the “week 11” nails. i’m gonna wait 11 weeks without biting my nails (trying) and i’ll see how far i’ll get compared to hers!
THIS VIDEO IS LONGER THAN MY NAILS. Who’s finding it helpful????
