Nails & hair

Now here's a thing! My nails & hair are growing more quickly. That usually only happens when I've been fell-walking for a fortnight (one of the reasons I quit by the way. I could see the day fast looming when hauling myself up a mountain would become impossible).

I put it down to improved circulation. Has anyone else noticed the phenomena?

Over the years quite a few people have posted about improvements in their hair, and since nails are made of the same stuff it stands to reason that they would improve too.

Just one more unexpected benefit, enjoy discovering more of them :)

Haven't noticed my hairs or nails yet - but I was told that my skin looked really good recently so there's another benefit to ditching old nic!

My hair is growing about 3 inches a month. I can sit on it now and I only had it cut a few months ago! Its like super grow!!

Everyone keeps mentioning how fast my hair grows.

I had my hair bobbed and shaved at the back about 4 years ago and I can sit on it now. Its ridiculous lol :D

My nails are long too :D

Well Skid the longer hair will do you well on the moors and the hills this time of year - it will keep you warm. However, the longer nails may be useful for something whilst up there - such as ............. :D

My skin feels smoother and plumper - the bags have also gone from under my eyes. Teeth also seem to be brighter.
