Why did you stop doing nails?

Half a year ago, the manicure was done very often. The hands looked beautiful. There was nothing. But after a long time, the nails became thin, brittle, easy to tear, and the face of the nails was not as smooth as before. 😢

This post is not to say that the manicure is not good. Just want to share a personal experience. For anyone who has a nail start to signal that they can't. Try to rest the nail for a while may help. 💖

... Read moreจากประสบการณ์ทำเล็บต่อเนื่องหลายเดือนจนเล็บเริ่มบางและเปราะ ฉันพบว่าเล็บที่ได้รับสารเคมีจากน้ำยาทาเล็บและเจลบ่อยๆ จะค่อยๆ เสียความแข็งแรง ผิวหน้าเล็บมีรอยขรุขระจนไม่เรียบเนียนเหมือนแต่ก่อน และมักเกิดปัญหาเล็บฉีกหรือหักง่ายโดยเฉพาะเวลายาวขึ้น บางครั้งการทำเล็บบ่อยจนเกินไปทำให้เกิดการสะสมสารเคมีที่เป็นอันตราย รวมถึงโอกาสติดเชื้อที่หน้าเล็บก็สูงขึ้นเนื่องจากผิวเล็บถูกทำลายและบางลง ฉันเคยเจ็บปวดกับการติดเชื้อและต้องถอดเล็บออกเพื่อฟื้นฟูสุขภาพเล็บใหม่เลยทีเดียว หลังจากประสบกับปัญหาเหล่านี้ ฉันตัดสินใจพักเล็บอย่างจริงจัง รอให้เล็บโตขึ้นและฟื้นฟูตัวเองโดยไม่ทาสารเคมีใดๆ ช่วงพักเล็บนี้ ฉันดูแลด้วยการทานอาหารที่มีวิตามินและแร่ธาตุเพิ่มความแข็งแรงให้เล็บ เช่น ไบโอติน และดื่มน้ำมากๆ เพื่อให้เล็บได้รับความชุ่มชื้นจากภายใน นอกจากนี้ ฉันยังใช้ผลิตภัณฑ์บำรุงเล็บที่เป็นธรรมชาติ เช่น น้ำมันละหุ่งหรือน้ำมันมะพร้าว ทาทุกคืนก่อนนอนเพื่อช่วยให้ผิวหน้าเล็บเรียบขึ้นและลดความเปราะบางในระยะยาว สำหรับใครที่ชอบทำเล็บแนะนำให้ไม่ทำเล็บบ่อยเกินไป ควรเว้นระยะพักเล็บประมาณ 1-2 เดือนหลังทำเล็บเจล หรือทำเล็บสี เพื่อให้เล็บได้ฟื้นฟูและลดความเสี่ยงจากสารเคมีสะสม อย่าลืมสังเกตอาการเล็บบอบบาง สีผิวเล็บที่ผิดปกติ หรือมีอาการเจ็บ เพื่อไปพบแพทย์เฉพาะทางหากจำเป็น สุดท้ายนี้ การทำเล็บนั้นดีและช่วยเพิ่มความมั่นใจ แต่สุขภาพเล็บก็สำคัญไม่แพ้กัน การรู้จักรักษาและพักเล็บเมื่อร่างกายส่งสัญญาณช่วยให้เล็บของเราสวยและแข็งแรงไปได้นานๆ ค่ะ
