Repair a broken nail quickly and effectively with household items: nail glue, a tea bag, nail file, small scissors, and tweezers.
Step-by-Step Guide
1. Gently file off sharp edges from the crack, focusing on the top of the nail.
2. Cut a tiny piece from a tea bag—large enough to cover the crack.
3. Apply a small drop of nail glue directly to the crack.
4. Position the tea bag piece over the crack, then add another thin layer of glue on top.
5. Once dry, file smoothly to blend the patch seamlessly with the rest of the nail.
6. Finish with nail polish—the repair will be virtually invisible.
This reliable DIY fix is ideal when you don't want to shorten your entire nail or need a quick solution before a special event.
