The garlic really works, my nails were weak, had ridges, and would split and peal
They are a 100% stronger. Please try this in some clear polish.

I’ve tried piercing the cloves with my nails and I can’t believe how hard it has made them!!! My nails were soooo paper thin it wasn’t funny!! I was actually considering going to a salon to have some artificial nails applied but then came across this article. What a savings!! It would have cost me $45.00 plus taxes to have them put on and then $25.00 every 3-4 weeks to apply filler to them, and for .50 cents, I have 3 bulbs of garlic at my disposal… IT REALLY DOES WORK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks for sharing that about your great grandma, Wanda. I find it wonderful how knowledge gets passed down from generation to generation.

Garlic really works for strengthening your nails. My great grandma thought me this as a kid late 70′s early 80′s. She also made me the nail polish (glad to hear i’m not alone in that one!) My nails are very strong and long. When i tell my friends about the garlic trick, they don’t belive the crush garlic in the nail polish, or the fact that i never pass on the opportunity to peel garlic when anyone is cooking after all these years. It really works!
