Don't forget that thyroid disease can cause nail separation, too. Usually it starts on the pinkies and/or thumbs first. When I finally was diagnosed with Graves disease (type of thyroid disease), I had already taken off my nail enhancements due to all the separation. It took over 2 years for the last holdout, my left pinkie, to finally re- attach. But I had kept it cut back beyond short and used Dr. G's and Vicks vaporub. Tea tree oil burned the skin around my finger, so I had to quit using that.
To this day, I cannot wear anything over that pinkie and ring finger, including polish, otherwise they lift off the bed again. I just tried the Gelish on them and had to soak it off after 4 days because they began separating again. It's so frustrating. Oddly enough, I can wear anything over my other nails....just not those last 2 fingers.
