I, too, have universalis and have pitting, but lately just picking something up or bumping my hand is splitting my nails so far they're very painful. And unsightly. I am thinking about taking those vitamins for hair, skin and nails.

my nails have deep lines in them and when they grow to a certain length, they peel. I also have a lot of white marks on my nails... I think their considered bruises on your nails. They are extremely thin as well.

Yes, pitted, splitting, ridges. I have been taking vitamines for Hair, nails, and skin religiously for a couple of months and my nails have gotten hard and I am actually able to grow them out a bit. I still have the ridges and pitting but am waiting to see what will happen in a couple of months when they grow out more. I also have been taking vitamin D since I was low and don't know if that is helping with the nails.

My daughter at 3 yrs old lost 5 fingernails and has lost a few toenails. The doctor didnt think it had to do with alopecia but I do. Her nails are very thin. She doesnt have pitting like the mention. She has alopecia univeralsis and has shown signs since see was 3 months old. She had hair and eyebrows but had circular bald spots until 2yrs old then lost all hair, eyebrows,eyelashes, hair. She hasnt got one hair anywhere.

My nails have deep grooves in them and the ends are very white like a french manicure, they also split very easily. The groves are very noticable, I have very ugly nails.

My nails are also pitted, I noticed this several months prior to losing my hair, I had no idea what it meant at the time.

Yes, I have universalis and my nails are pitted, have white spots and are starting to separate from the nail bed.
