How can I grow my nails out in one month?

I always have short nails because I bite them but I have a formal dance coming up in one month and I want to grow my nails out so I can get a french manicure for it. So I've stopped biting my nails but as soon as they grow out the a decent length, they break on their own. Is there some type of (cheap) product I can buy that will make them stronger and more likely to grow out faster???

    Nail Strengthener- it looks like clear coat but it has strengthener and it helps your nails to grow fast.

    I recommend Sally Hansen Green Tea+ Bamboo Nail Strengthener, you can get it at any drug store where nail polish is sold.

    make sure first ur nails are healthy then

    getting your nails to grow fast is really about taking care of them and keeping them healthy. Nails grow about 1/8 inch per month but what keeps nails from getting long is more about nail damage and poor nail care than about slow growth. Taking care of your nails is about taking care of yourself as the nails are often the first thing doctor's look at to judge a person's general health.Shape your nails from the outside edge toward the middle, moving the emery board in one direction only rather than sawing it back and forth which damages the nail. Soaking nails in warm, soapy water before pushing cuticles back makes for less scraping on the nail bed (the pink part of the nail).Shape your nails from the outside edge toward the middle, moving the emery board in one direction only rather than sawing it back and forth which damages the nail.

Don't fuss with your nails all the time as over filing can cause weakening and other nail problems.

    i also had that problem before until my mom made me bring a pusher always. You can use the pusher to clean the dirt underneath your nails rather than using your teeth because that could tempt you to bite them and break them. If your nails are already long you can use a nipper to maintain the desired shape that you wanted. :}

    A little bit of toe nail is fine... but I agree together with you. Long nails are kinda gross.
