Artificial Nails

Tips to keep longer your artificial nails
  1. Your nails are NOT tools.  Use anything but your nails to open, rip, etc.  Example:  To open a soda can you can use your car keys, scissors, anything but your artificial nails.  They may crack or lift, plus with the time you my cause a damage on your nail matrix.
  2. Keep them dry.  Avoid washing dishes, if you have to use gloves or dry them right away. 
  3. Do not bite them. 80% of my clients tend to bite the nails, the skin around or just have them in their mouth.  This again may cause lifting but also you will be bringing bacteria to your mouth and viceversa.
  4. Apply daily lotion and/or cuticle oil to keep your skin and cuticles hydratated.
  5. Do your filling every 2 weeks to avoid accidents, lifting and to always have them pretty.
