How can I fix my index finger nail that is split vertically and will not heal?

Assuming you can deal with any infection, the sides must be stabilized by bonding the two halves. Use a small hardware store stainless steel washer, bend it to match the curve of the nail, and bond it with superglue. Then tape the end of the finger to exclude dirt. and let the nail grow out for several months. Again, infection changes this to a medical problem in a hurry, so watch the site.

Why do some uv gels turn yellow right after they are fixed in uv lamp?

Yes UV Gel nails are way better than Acrylic nails. They are more expensive, but well worth it! The substance MMA is found in ACrylic nails. methyl methacrylate (MMA), are nown to have cancer causing agents. Discount ACrlylics are a no no. Ladies just grow out ur own nails. I recommend natural nails over any kind of artificial nails anyday!!!!!

Yellowing of UV gel nails is most often caused by the use of inferior, and cheap UV gel products. Top of the line UV gels will not yellow, even with exposure or in tanning beds. It is true that MMA is founf at many discount salons, but a good tech will never use any acrylicproducts which contain that hazardous substance. BTW, gels are very similar to acrylic nail in that they come from the same acrylic family of chemicals. But to say that one is better than the other for your naills is not accurate. Many factors affect the health of your natural nails when wearing nail enhancements of any type. I would strongly suggest staying away from any and all discount salons and going to reputable, and experienced techs instead who use nothing but the very vest products available on your nails. Discount salons will ruin your nails more often than not. It is simply not worth risking your personal health for the sake of saving a few dollars by going to any discount salon. They are all pretty much the same, IMO. Avoid them at all costs.
