I have a nail that has a fracture in it, and I really really need my nail. I play guitar and I need my thumbnail! And tricks to repair it?

You can get some nail glue that comes in the little tube, and fill it in where the nail is fractured. I do this all the time when my nails get tiny fractures :)

Cut a tea bag in a pice that covers your whole nail. then put nail glue over your nail and place the pice of tea bag on top. wait until it dries and then put anothe coat of nail glue over your nail. Once its dry then gently file to make the nail eaven and smooth. And then your done!! Repeat until the nail grows out. when you want to remove it simply soak your nail in acetone. this method works for me.

Top coat won't hold it for long.

Exactly. it will work but not for long. so then you have ro repeat the process more often.

And if you are using the method I described then you can't file after you apply the 2nd coat over the tea bag.

Soak it in olive oil, vinegar and a bit of warm water. Then soak in milk! Afterwards, dry and use nail glue to fix! Hope this helps! Drop me a comment if you need to clarify! xo.

Ps: if you play the guitar I don't suggest using top coat!
