      I don’t think you can. You can eat the right things to make them grow a bit stronger so they don’t fray so fast. (toenails apparently grow a lot slower!)

      Chris is certainly right about the toenails and the diet. Nails grow faster or slower depending on general health, so eating a balanced diet which includes plenty of vitamins is important. They also grow faster in summer than in winter! Perhaps you could experiment like this:

      You could also glue on false nails. That’s quite fast.

      its all out side my field and nothing I have ever considered before. But I had noticed that my nails grow quicker in the summer
