Gel manicures are designed to enhance the aesthetics of your natural nail. Our products have been made with minimal harsh chemicals and do not contain TPO or Hema.
However, gel nails & builder gel nails, when applied correctly, with high quality products, also give strength to weak nails. Think of this... when you hit your nail off something when you are cleaning for instance, you would rather hit the builder gel than your natural nail with nothing on to protect them. Your natural nail with nothing on will snap and break.
Gel nails, builder gel and hard gel all should last a minimum of 3 weeks when you go to an expert nail artist. They will retain their shine if you keep them away from chemicals that can damage them. For example, wear gloves when cleaning.
Here’s how you can keep your nails from getting damaged:
Use Safe Removal Methods
Gel manicures must be removed carefully. You may need to book with your manicurist for a safe and professional soak off removal. Your nail artist has been trained on how to remove gel manicures safely to protect your natural nail from damage. Your manicurist will also apply hand lotion, cuticle oil and a strengthener after removing your nail enhancement.
Use hand lotion and Cuticle Oil
Dry, brittle nails can become a cause for concern. Regular moisturising can help to rehydrate your nails and prevents breakages. Cuticle oil massages as a daily routine are highly recommended to maintain your nail health. When your nail artist prepares your nail plate for adhesion, you should always be reapplying moisture back into your nails daily after your service for your service aftercare.
Avoid DIY Nails
Although you may find a lot of gel nail kits and UV lamps for sale online, experts recommend you don’t do this as a DIY. Uncured products and incorrect exposure to UV lamps can harm your nails, cause allergies and compromise the nail bed. Also, avoid the temptation to peel your gel polish by yourself.
Always Seek a Qualified Manicurist
Although using high quality products is a good start, it’s equally important the work is done by a qualified manicurist. The manicurist will check your natural nails and tell you whether you should opt for hard gel nails or soft gels. A professional manicurist will use the correct products and ensure your nails and hands are not harmed while you go through the process.
