Healthy nails are usually a consistent pink color. They are hard and moist enough that they do not break or split too easily. The edges of your nails should stop while still on the finger, and the nails should be firmly attached to your nail beds. Healthy nails are smooth, and the texture shouldn't include things like Beau's lines, which are deep grooved lines from side to side of the fingernail. Beau's lines are a sign of infection or Kawasaki disease. Nails should also run straight out of the finger tip, as opposed to curving out (koilonychias: a sign of anemia).
