Salon Nail Quick Treatment
I'm a qualified Nail Technician/Manicurist & thought I'd share some tips for keeping your nails healthy this summer...
1. When cleaning beneath the nail's free edge doso gently or you could damage the delicate skin that joins the nail plate to the nail bed, thus reducing the surface area of the nail bed.
2. Gently buffing the nails with a fine-grain buffer will help to smooth unsightly ridges but be sure not to over-buff as the nails will just become thinner & weaker.
3.A soft leather shammy can really make the nails shine like they have a vanish on so if your profession does not allow nail varnish, try this instead for the same look.
4. Treating cuticles regularly with a massage oil or hand cream will help keep them pliable, and gently pushing them back weekly will keep them out of the way without having to cut them off completely.
5. For weak, damaged and fine nails use a very fine grit board which allows for a smooth but light removal of nail and a clean shape.
6. Most of all TOP TIP if you want your nails to be strong buy a good quailty nail strengthener,of the shelf types such as Sally Hansen are good, butbest of all go to a Nail/Hair wholesalers & pick up a good quality one there, more money but worth every penny!!
