Acrylic nails are the latest rage in women's trends. They are artificial nails that are glued on to the natural nail tips to make them look long and beautiful. They are also used to strengthen thin, chipped or chewed nails. They come in a plethora of colors and designs to suit every woman's taste. While getting artificial nails, there are a few things to keep in mind:

 

  • Choosing the right salon is very important. There are 2 types: ones that use drills and ones that use manual files. Many prefer to go to salons where the nail technicians use drills give better results. They give a smoother, thinner and more natural-shaped nail. However, a benefit of using salons with manual files is that you are likely to be issued a new set of nail files that are set aside and labeled with your name. This is great as good hygiene practices are important for applying and using acrylic nails.

 

  • Making sure that the salon you choose has trained professional nail technicians to apply the artificial nails is important. Getting it done wrong or in an unhygienic manner can often lead to infections. Professional nail technicians can also give you great tips on how to care for the nails after they are done. They are able to provide you with better service and products.

 

  • As mentioned earlier, technicians will give you advice on how to maintain the nail tips once they are done. This is extremely important as it can ensure that your artificial nails stay on for a longer period of time. Checking your nails regularly for discoloration is advised. Fungus can grow between the natural nails and the acrylic if moisture gets trapped where the acrylic has lifter or if proper hygiene is not observed during the application. If there is anything you notice that does not seem normal, you should go to your technician right away. They are trained to recognize and treat nail fungus. Sometimes the acrylic has to be removed until the nails are healthy again. In severe cases, it is advisable to see a physician for prescription to clear up the fungus.

 

Always make sure your salon is certified and practices good hygiene and you can have beautiful, healthy nails, not to mention, experiment with as many designs as you like.
