We have often experienced the frustration of a broken fingernail and waited long before returning to playing in optimal condition.
With Franco, I sometimes experienced the problem of a broken or compromised nail before a concert.
When the accident occurs before a performance, there is no other way but to decide to rebuild when one has enough time or by temporarily overcoming the problem using harmful chemical glues.
Following one or more reconstructions, the nail becomes progressively weaker; moreover, without none nails-check, any hidden mycoses can be overlooked.
The solution to avoid all these problems is undoubtedly to play upfront, trying to have a strong nail.
That’s why we’ve looked for products like, for example, ‘Pentaker,’ a strengthener struggling also the onychophagia.
Unfortunately, if the weakening process is due to endogenous causes, the problem remains.
