How to Get the Best from Your Enhancements
We want you to be happy with your nail enhancements, we also want them to be long-lasting and stay looking beautiful. We’ve put together some easy to follow steps to help you make this happen
Getting Used to Your Nail Enhancements
- Make sure you book a regular rebalance appointment with your nail technician. It’s a good idea to book a series of appointments at once, try to book the same day, same time every two to three weeks.
- Don’t bite or pick your nail enhancements, this can lead to weakening or breakage and can cause damage and thinning to your natural nails.
- If you notice your nail enhancement lifting, don’t pull or pick at it. But don’t ignore it. Return to the salon as soon as possible; your technician will decide if a repair is necessary.
- Nail enhancements may take some time getting used to. Gradually you will get into the habit of using your hands in a different way and the nail enhancements will start to feel as natural as your own nails.
Around the House
- Wear rubber gloves when you wash up or clean. Detergents and solvents can be harmful to the natural nail plate.
- Treat your new nails with care, use them as jewels not tools! Car doors, kitchen cupboards, ring-pulls and switches can all cause breakages.
- When wearing nail enhancements always avoid pulling backwards against the tips of the nails; this could cause injury or breakage. So don’t pull your laundry out of the washer with your nails!
What Products Should I Use on My New Enhancements?
- It is important to use SolarOil daily. Massage it into your nail enhancements. It will keep them flexible, prolong their life and dramatically reduce the risk of breakage.
- Invest in a hand lotion that will penetrate the skin and your nail enhancements such as SolarSilk (whipped up SolarOil).
- When removing nail enamel always use an approved non-acetone remover as recommended by your nail technician.
- If you need to remove your nail enhancements you should return to the salon. Your nail technician will be able to remove the nail enhancements without damaging your natural nail with a professional product remover and give you a manicure to restore moisture and condition to the natural nails.
Let Yourself Be Pampered
- Above all, leave the hard work to the professionals and let your nail technician manicure your nail enhancements
