Day Two

12/09/2015

I don't know why, but for some reason I saw a lot of progress after just one day of no biting.

I was really impressed at how quickly my nails seemed to have grown in one day. After using so much handcream (Poundland's finest), the Sally Hansen nail gel I mentioned in my last post, and some coconut oil, I felt like my nails were a bit more...moisturised I suppose.

They're still obviously the nails of a nail biter. It'll take a long time for them to look more normal, and I know from experience that we're not talking days here. We're talking weeks and months. And then I'll have to wait for my nail beds to (hopefully) sort themselves out. But this is the sort of thing that can only be done day by day, step by step. Aaaaargh I wish I could fast forward to when they're long. My gad.
