How To Extend The Life Of Your Manicure Cross Creek TX

By Stephanie Perry


Having your nails polished by a professional can be expensive. That is why it is so important to find ways to make your manicure Cross Creek TX last as long as possible. If you want to keep your digits in top condition here are some things to do and a few things that you should avoid as well.

Choosing the right salon is important. You will want to make sure that the tools they use are clean. It is easy for bacteria to grow on manicuring tools. Look for an autoclave or other sterilizing equipment. Using a sterilizer on tools is the only way to keep them from spreading bacteria from one client to another.

One thing to think about is whether you want to keep your nails natural or whether you want the manicurist to put on an overlay. There are two main types of overlays that can be applied. One is made of acrylic and the other is made from a gel that uses UV radiation to harden it. The advantage to acrylic or gel nails is that they are harder than natural nails and are more resistant to chipping or breaking.

A good salon will make sure to carefully remove old polish and will spend time pushing back your cuticles. If they get too long they can look rough and may tear. This can cause bleeding and can also leave you at risk for developing infections. If you are leaving your nails natural you will want to make sure that the techs use a base coat under the polish to protect your fingertips from discoloration and chipping.

While a tech will need to do a certain amount of grinding before they apply a gel or acrylic tip you will want to make sure that they do not do an excessive amount of grinding. This may end up causing your nail bed to bleed. If this happens you may end up developing an infection under the artificial nail. In some extreme cases it may mean that the artificial tips may need to come off and it may take quite some time for your hands to recover.

Shorter nails can look beautiful and may be easier to maintain. If the tips are not allowed to flex or bend (the way they will if they are long) then the overlay will not crack and will last longer. You will still need to get them filled and regular maintenance will still be necessary but your tips will look much better between care sessions.

Lighter, neutral colors may hide chips or other problems as long as possible. If you have natural nails, make sure that the technician uses a base coat. This can help the polish adhere more firmly and can help avoid chipping or other issues. If you have the tech use your own polish you may be able to apply additional coats if you do develop any chips. This will help keep your hands in top condition.

You will want to make sure that you take good care of your nails between sessions. Don't soak your hands in water since this can damage the polish and weaken the nail underneath. Don't use them to pry or open items since this can also tear or break your nails. If you take care, you may be amazed at how long your hands will stay looking and feeling beautiful.
