2. Garlic Paste and Lemon Juice

How it works: Garlic strengthens the nails while lemon juice helps to exfoliate and lighten any discoloration. Together, they can help improve nail health and appearance.
How to use it:
Crush or finely chop 1-2 garlic cloves into a paste.
Mix the garlic paste with 1 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice.
Massage the mixture gently onto your nails and cuticles.
Leave it on for 10-15 minutes, then wash off with lukewarm water.
Do this 2-3 times a week.

3. Garlic Oil Massage

How it works: Garlic-infused oil can penetrate the nail bed and nourish the nails from within, promoting growth and helping to prevent brittleness.
How to use it:
Crush several garlic cloves and mix them with a carrier oil such as coconut or olive oil (about 1 tablespoon of oil for 2-3 garlic cloves).
Let the mixture sit for a few hours to infuse the garlic in the oil.
Massage the garlic oil into your nails and cuticles before bed.
Leave it on overnight for best results and wash it off in the morning.
Repeat daily for improved nail strength.

By regularly incorporating garlic into your nail care routine, you should start to see stronger, faster-growing nails in a few weeks.
