Thick toenails sneak up on you — one day the clippers just don't want to close. Home care can do a lot for how they look and feel day to day.
Why nails thicken
Years of shoe pressure, running and sports impact, age, and old injuries all encourage nails to grow thicker and less even. The result: harder trimming, snagged socks, and a surface that looks bumpy instead of smooth.
The prepare-first routine
1) Soften after a shower. 2) Trim in small bites, never one big cut. 3) File the surface gently to reduce visible buildup. 4) Then apply your renewal pen — on a prepped surface the formula reaches the nail instead of sitting on buildup. 5) Repeat daily; re-trim weekly.
