do you think she will be okay? she didnt show any signs of pain. i dont know!!!!!!!!My parakeets are very happy and healthy birdas. one male and one female.my females nail got to long and broke?
That happened to my grandmothers parakeet. If it is bleeding use corn starch or Kwik Stop. If not she will be fine. Make sure you tend to it soon, if bleeding. To much blood leaving the body will cause the bird to die.My parakeets are very happy and healthy birdas. one male and one female.my females nail got to long and broke?
As long as she's not bleeding she'll be fine. Get some of those sandpaper perch covers for the cage, to help file down their nails.
It'll heal. If it's bleeding, use corn starch or quik stop.

Is it healthy to paint my 2yr olds nails often?
My 2yr old and I go once to twice a month to get our nails painted and I was wondering if it is bad for her nails, because their are childrens spas that paint only kids nails so do they have a special kind of nail polish for kids? Thank you to anyone who could help me out.Is it healthy to paint my 2yr olds nails often?
Some companies market nail polish for kids, when I was little I had Disney Princess nail polish... Try Avon maybe? Also, make sure she doesn't bite her nails or put her hands in her mouth when she's had them painted since that can make her sick. Ditto on the make sure to give her nails time to breathe at least 1 week off for every week on...Is it healthy to paint my 2yr olds nails often?
I think it's fine as long as she's not a thumb sucker since I'm pretty sure that the nail polish may have some icky chemical in it. You could ask the salon about some non-toxic nail polish or bring your own if you happen to find some especially made for kids, even if it's not as good a quality as ';adult nail polish.';
NO!
I wouldn't worry so much about the nail polish. But the fumes she's breathing at the salon. It's very toxic for her tiny little body. If I were you, I'd try to find some child polishes or all natural that would be okay for her. And would limit the salons to like once or twice a year. Those chemicals are just too intense for your little one.
I think it's great that you include your daughter in this kind of outting. I would be careful though as to not cover her nails all the time with paint as it will not allow for air to to naturally harden her healthy nails. After prolonged use of nail polish they will get weaker. I do not know if nail salons have a special nail polish for kids. I was not aware of that but it's possible.
Dan - I am assuming you're the only one who gave each of us a thumbs down. First of all nail polish is NOT makeup...get your facts straight.
why do people want there two year olds wearing makeup if you are using the adult nail varnish it is not good for your childs lungs she is breathing chemicalsyes yes i know i am a bloke so i automaticaly qualify for thumbs down in this section but its the truth
As long as she doesnt chew her nails or suck her thumb I dont see a problem
I think adult polish could be harsh on little kids nails but they do make polishes for kids that easly peel and are non toxic.
It can be...just check the nail polish they are using to make sure its non toxic. They make child safe nail polish.
Good luck!

Help! How do i get my nails to be healthy, long & strong? Any at home remedies? Thanks!?
well if u bite ur nails stop biting them then they will grow nice but once they start curling cclip them because that means they r to long also wash under ur nails alot and if u paint ur nails dont keep the nail polish on for to long because then that damages them and if you want to paint your nails you can always put on the clear coat that says '; Makes your nails healthier and strong'; it comes in an orange bottle =)Help! How do i get my nails to be healthy, long %26amp; strong? Any at home remedies? Thanks!?
There's this stuff by Sally Hansen that really works. I don't remember what it's called but it is clear and has the word hard in it. lol. :) Also, I heard eating jello will help them grow that way!

What should I use on my real nails to help them grow stong and healthy.?
I removed acrylic nails I have worn for more than a year.What should I use on my real nails to help them grow stong and healthy.?
When you remove acrylics your nails are very weak especially after 1 year so try and keep then well manicured.. always file straight do not file the sides, apply a nail hardener and keep them at a reasonable length. That should do it!What should I use on my real nails to help them grow stong and healthy.?
EEK. Your nails must be very brittle right now. I suggest going to the store an buying prenatal vitamins. I know it sounds funny, but they do wonders for hair and nails. There's also a ';hair and nails'; vitamin out there. You can try nail polishes, but I think you're just going to have to let them grow out. There isn't very much you can do when they're that damaged. Good Luck!
Nails are dead tissue you can鈥檛 put anything on them. I take a multivitamin every day and I believe that has helped my nails immensely.
Oh dont worry most girls have same the problem with fake nails.
You can by Sally Handson formula for brittle nails. Just use that while with no nail polish for about 2 week let heal on it own. You can also use some gel for cuts. You know the nail something in morning and day.
Use a hardening or strengthening polish. Other than that, it is best to leave them the way they are. Also, you should drink lots of water and eat healthily.

Is it healthy to use sharpie brand marker on your nails?
Please don't answer saying it's tacky or anything, there's a design i want to do on my nails that only sharpie is fine tipped enough for me to do. I put clear polish on my clear nail before putting the sharpie on, and i put layers of clear polish on after i let the sharpie dry so that it won't easily come off.
So is it healthy for my nails? (: Thanks.Is it healthy to use sharpie brand marker on your nails?
no. it will dry your nails out %26amp; make them brittle.
you should just use regular nail polish.Is it healthy to use sharpie brand marker on your nails?
I asked my mom just now who's a pediatric nurse and she said it's not bad, but it would just be a pain and take awhile to get off. Don't use it too much!
In my opinion, I don't think using Sharpies can hurt your nails..
As long as you have an undercoat.
I imagine it can't be healthy.
Not sure how bad thou.
just do a base coat like sally hansen

Is it healthy to have long cracks on your nails?
i can take my finger and go over it and theres lots on long bumps on my nails. how do u make them go away for good?Is it healthy to have long cracks on your nails?
if you've been using lots of hand sanitizer, then stop. its bad for your nails.Is it healthy to have long cracks on your nails?
eeewwwww!!! no way
That's is deffinatley not normal. Maybe your not get enough calcium or vitamin C. There's pills and all sorts of stuff that help your nails grow stronger. Talk to someone who specializes in that area. It's fixable you just have do what's neccessary, either way talk to a proffessional
Are they bumps and ridges or really cracks that go down to your skin?
cracks are more unsettling than ridges because they may end of collecting bacteria and hurting. See a doctor.
If they are just ridges, if you have always had them might be just the way your nails are built. If they are recent it's probably a dietary thing. See if you are getting enough nutrition.
best of luck
you need to take geletin caps every day...and then use a
';nail-buffer';----go to your local drug store or a nail salon, and buy a square filing BLOCK...and have the nail-stylist show you how to use it---even if there's a language barrier between you...she/he can SHOW you how. Always do it to clean nails, and then after you've buffed them up, wash your hands well, then put a DROP of olive oil at the nailbed (base of your nail) and massage it into the full length of the nail. Don't polish your nails until this oil has completely disappeared (been soaked into the nail %26amp; skin).
no. take care of nails.myspace background

What are some good natural nail growers and tips to make my nails look and grow healthy?
I have VERY distorted nail(Yeah, sad) which are all dew to the many years of my (OCD) if you will* of biting and picking at all of them???
I would appreciate Very much Anyone who would be willing to give my some Great tips and hints as to how 2 grow out them more(which I am actually trying to do) .....Besides STOP PICKING AT THEM PLEASEEE:):):)and what a good daily nail routine would be to keep for me! and I would love to have a great french nail polish so if any1 knows of a pretty french nail lacquer to get PPPLLEEAASSEE let me know now!!I love painting my nails!What are some good natural nail growers and tips to make my nails look and grow healthy?
It's a vitamin called Biotin. You can get it at any health food store or vitamin shop..maybe even Wal Mart. It helps hair and nail growth and strength. I highly suggest using it. If you still bite your nails, they have nail polish that tastes really nasty that will help you stop biting them. I had to use it for a while cause I chewed mine so much they'd start to bleed. Nervous habit for me. Got over it, though. My nails used to be really thin and fragile, too. Now they're rock solid from the vitamin.What are some good natural nail growers and tips to make my nails look and grow healthy?
file them. please answer mine, http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;鈥?/a>
stick them into your vagina and they grow like crazy trust me...
There's no over night cure, so you'll need to make restoring your nails a bit of a special project over the next few weeks. Sweet almond oil is natural and safe to use on thin and delicate nails and it won't irritate or burn broken skin at the cuticle. Rub the oil into the entire nail area, cuticle, nail bed and naim tips. This will moisturize the cuticle and the massaging action on the nail bed will stimulate nail growth. Best part about almond oil is that you can use it as often as your want, morning, noon night, before and after washing dishes...whenever.
Treat you nails very gently for a while, don't use a plain old emery board, they are too coarse and they will shred your nails. Use a fine metal diamond coated file, available in the drug store. Revlon makes a diamond file that's inexpensive yet the very best you can buy. You might also want to look into a good nail buffer, that will make your nails smooth and shiny without harsh polishes and polish removers and it's better for you as your nails return to health.
Give your nails about six weeks to restore themselves to good health. Then, at the six week mark -which is right at Christmas -treat yourself to a manicure at a salon or with a nice french nail kit. Sally Hansen makes one that a girlfriend uses and she has nice nails. And all this pampering of your nails and seeing how nice they look should help motivate you to keep up the routine.
