Hi Sarah, that sounds nasty for your friend. I was in my gym today and saw an ad for various different 'Jessica' nail treatments, for splitting, brittle, tearing nails and so on. I've never been a manicure kind of gal, but am considering having it done, as my nails are weak after chemo and Herceptin. Don't know if that will help, or if anyone has even been advised against having this kind of thing done?
Best wishes to you both
Caroline
