Nail Health Basics: Best Habits for Growing Out Your Natural Nails

If your goal is longer, stronger natural nails, small habits make a big difference.

Many of Satomi’s clients in Auckland CBD switch to structured gel to grow their natural nails safely.

Here’s how to support the process at home.

1. Keep Nails Short at First

Short nails reduce leverage — which prevents breakage.

2. Use Builder Gel for Support

Structured reinforcement protects the nail while it grows.Satomi uses flexible Japanese gels that move with the natural nail.

3. Moisturise Daily

Hydrated nails bend — they don’t crack.Cuticle oil is essential.

4. Avoid Harsh Chemicals

Wear gloves when cleaning or washing dishes.This reduces peeling and dryness.

5. Book Regular Maintenance

2–3 week appointments ensure:

• structure stays balanced

• lifting is removed safely

• nails grow evenly

Growing out natural nails isn’t luck — it’s routine.With consistent care and detailed prep, your nails can reach a strong, elegant length.
