The Doctor Behind Dr Tom.
Dr Tom Cawood is a hospital doctor, published lab scientist, and passionate classical guitarist. He developed this nail strengthening cream after years of frustration with nail breakages that stopped him from playing guitar.
Using his scientific background, Dr Tom created a new lab testing method for nails — then developed a product that delivers real results.
Today, the formula he uses is trusted by musicians, nurses, hairdressers, and people everywhere who want stronger natural nails without polish or artificial coatings.
Where It All Began
Before the lab tests, the clinical trials, or the product packaging — there was just a guitar, a curious mind, and an obsession with maintaining strong healthy nails.
Dr Tom has played classical guitar for most of his life. It’s a discipline that demands precision, patience… and perfectly shaped natural nails. For years, every snap or split meant weeks without practice.
What you see here isn’t just music — it’s the origin of the idea. The spark that led a hospital doctor to reinvent nailcare from the ground up.
Turns Out, This Started Decades Ago
When Tom’s mum recently sent him these newspaper clippings from 1991, even he was surprised — he’d forgotten just how far back this obsession with nail health went.
At 17, Tom had already started experimenting with ways to protect his nails for guitar, giving up rugby to avoid breaks and even using superglue and gloves to keep them intact.
He might not have known it then, but that teenage guitarist — sanding his nails and tweaking his tone — would one day become the doctor who built a better solution for all of us.
