Bitten or short nails: a routine to support regrowth
Biting your nails can leave them short, brittle, and uneven. To support regrowth, Vitry offers a targeted selection of treatments and accessories: Sensitive Repairing Bitter Polish, Nail Repair Serum, Whitening Effervescent Tablets, and refills for the Perfect’Ongles Electric Nail Buffer.
Which treatment should be used for bitten nails?
The Sensitive Repairing Bitter Polishis specially designed to help stop nail-biting. Its very bitter taste acts as a deterrent from the first application, while its formula helps repair and strengthen damaged nails. Invisible once applied, it is suitable for adults and children from age 4.
The bitter polish should be applied to clean, dry nails once a day until the habit stops. Once under control, Vitry recommends continuing applications twice a week for one month to minimize recurrence.
How to care for short and weakened nails?
When nails have been bitten regularly, they may need time to regain their length and strength. A regular routine helps support them during regrowth by combining strengthening care with gentle maintenance steps.
Nail treatments allow you to complete this routine with formulas adapted for fragile nails. The Nail Repair Serum, featured in this collection, helps nourish and strengthen the nails while supporting their growth.
How to maintain nails during regrowth?
During regrowth, it is best to avoid cutting or filing the nails too aggressively. A suitable nail file helps maintain a uniform length and prevents edges from snagging or breaking. The glass fileis particularly appreciated for its gentle and precise filing, which is especially beneficial when nails are fragile.
Buffing can also be occasionally integrated into the routine to smooth the nail surface and improve its appearance. The nail buffer allows you to care for the nails gently, without trying to change their length.
