Interesting facts about nail growth

If you want your nails to grow fast, you would be interested in knowing that on an average our nails grow about an inch and a half in a year. You would also be surprised to know that the nails on the hand you use most frequently tend to grow faster. So, if you are right handed the nails on your right hand would grow faster than those on your left hand. This is because you do most activities with your favored hand, the blood flow to the nails on that hand is far better. The more blood that reaches the nail bed, the faster may be the growth of the nails. Another factor that may influence nail growth is the length of your fingers. It is found that people with long fingers tend to have faster nail growth than those with smaller fingers.
