I bruised my nail at a work event last summer and half the nail finally fell off. It's not the half closest to the cuticle.
Would it be ok to get a fake one put on :look:
I don't know about where you all live, but they do that here in Detroit.
I just know my nail won't grow back by sandal season :perplexed

I do not suggest that you put a fake nail on only because it might cause a fungus to grow under it. I would wait it out. a corner of my big toe nail had a crack in the middle and I was trying to stop if from completly fallng off, I had them put a silk wrap on the crack. Then I had to have them take that part of the nail off because the wrap was causing water to be trapped under my nail bed and it caused a fungus. My nail is growing back really nicely now but I would never to that again:ohwell:
Yes, don't put an extension on your toe nail! This happened to me not long before sandal season. I bought this nail oil called Mavaderma - by Mavala. I think I got it from Amazon.com. It makes nails grow fast. I was back in sandals by summer! HTH.
God bless.

its better to leave your nail uncovered.and dry.and it will grow back in nicely in no time....fake nails will hinder the growing process....
i had a similar inccident..more than half of my toe nail went off.. it was painless though..tank God for that.
