How To Extend The Life Of Your Manicure Cross Creek TX

By Stephanie Perry


If you want your nails to look their best, nothing is better for doing that than a good professional manicure. A good manicure Cross Creek TX will leave you with gorgeous looking nails that are healthy as well. Here are some tips and tricks that you can use to get your nails looking their best.

The cleanliness of the salon is important. Not only will clean, well-maintained tools do a better job on your hands they will also not result in bacterial or fungal infections. An infection can not only be unpleasant to look at it can end up causing you to develop serious health issues.

You need to think about whether you want to keep your nails natural or if you want to have gel or acrylic ones put on. If you are athletic or if your natural nails are weak or brittle it may be difficult to prevent breakage. If you do experience breakage it will mean that your fingers do not look good no matter how much you spend on manicures. Some salons may charge fifty dollars or more depending on what you are having done so it is important to think carefully before making a final decision.

To make your polish last as long as possible, make sure that the surface is completely clear of oils or lotions. These may end up on your hands when the professional uses skin lotion or cuticle oil on your hands prior to working on the nails themselves. If there is any trace of grease or oil the polish will not stick properly and your manicure will not last nearly as long.

If you are having acrylics or gels put on the technician will need to grind down the surface of your nail. This is so that once the overlay is applied the nail will not be excessively thick. Make sure that when the grinder is being used that the technician does not take too much of your natural nail off. If you end up damaging the nail bed you can end up developing an infection.

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.

Once your natural nails have been shaped and filed or your false ones applied they will be painted. Many people like to have a solid color applied whereas some will enjoy having French tips applied. This usually means a neutral base with a white or light colored tip. Choosing an understated look will help keep your look beautiful and professional no matter what time of year it is.

Even the best manicure can't help if you are rough with your nails. Soaking them in the bath or in water will soften them and make them weak. Bending them or using them to pry things open can rip or break them as well. Taking care of your nails will help them stay strong and look beautiful even between sessions at your local nail salon.
