Are you battling the effects of chemotherapy?


Today, I just want to try to encourage that someone out there that is having a real tough day to just hang in there. Stay positive and get out there. Hope you have a great long weekend.

If people want to use this board to send encouragement out to people or just tell someone how today is a tough day - then please feel free to comment here.

If you are undergoing chemotherapy, remember to check out the program at www.FlexiNail.com to help with your nails. We may just put you on our list to send free product to. Take care. Derek

Chemotherapy, brittle nails and free FlexiNail

Although hair loss and chemotherapy are well associated - nails problems are also very common.

We get people writing and asking if it's true, "Do we give away free product to people on chemotherapy?"

The short answer is yes we do. The longer answer is that we also have to limit the free product we give away - or people just abuse it and write and say they are undergoing chemotherapy and want free product. When you write us, please tell us a little about yourself. Don't just write and request free product please. Ideally, we would like to help those people that are having some financial difficulties (although right now, who isn't?).

Tell us what drug you're taking, a little about what you're going through and maybe why some free product would make a difference to you. We will take your email and put you on our list - we try to help out one person (and sometimes more) each day.

Write FlexiNail at admin@FlexiNail.com and remember to stay positive.

Why most nail oils don't work...

For a nail conditioner to show long term results, it needs to penetrate the nail's protective coating. Most conditioning oils don't penetrate - they just sit on top of the nail. They absorb into the cuticle - but not into the nail itself. Many products even advertise "vitamins" - but in many cases this "vitamin" or antioxidant is one of the ingredients used to simply stop the oil in the product from going rancid (and it sounds good too).

For a nail conditioner to be effective - it has to get into the nail which is made of alpha keratin and very different in composition from the skin. Without a penetrating formulation, the ingredients can't penetrate to the nail matrix and you're wasting your time AND money.

FlexiNail is formulated to penetrate the nail. That is why there is a 100 day money-back guarantee. It works.
