5 tips to suggest you before manicure

After a long, hard week dealing with life’s nail-biting moments, a trip to the nail salon or the day spa is a great way to pamper your digits (or tootsies). Whether you want gel nails or a classic manicure, you’ll find it pretty easy to find the services and styles you want. But what should you notice when you getting manicure? Let me give you some suggestions before manicure.

1. You’d better bring your own nail gel.

Bring your own nail gel can help you in three ways:

1). Bringing your own nail color, you can easily fix the damage if something happens (like someone accidentally steps on your nails), because it’s your nail polish that was used on your nails.

2). If your nail color had chipped or you just want to retouch your nails, you can easily do so. This allows you to prolong your manicure or pedicure a few more days instead of heading to the salon right away.

3). Bringing your own nail polish ensures you of the quality of the polish being used on your nails. So if you don’t trust the brands used by your local nail salon, it’s best that you bring your own.

2. Bring your own tools.

The danger in salons doesn’t end with non-toxic polish. Salon practices—which cause both trauma and infections—as major health concerns.These salons are working under major economic duress because there are so many of them, and when time is money, they will choose to sacrifice clients health. Not the case in your local salon? But I still think you need to put your health into your own hands.

3. Chose the uncomplicated design

I suggest going for uncomplicated designs if you decide to have nail design on your fingers or toes, that show enough background color. For instance, choose a nail design that has two to three flowers or other designs that are not that detailed. This way, when the tips chip, you can easily repair it at home. Leave the intricate designs for special occasions!

4. You’d better shave your lower legs after getting a pedicure, rather than before.

You’d better don’t shave it even after 24 hours. If you nick yourself while shaving, a pedicure could put you at risk for an infection. File your nails into a shape that mirrors your cuticle’s, which makes them less likely to break.

5. You have to apply a cream to moisturize your nails.

The more moisture your nails and cuticles have, the less likely they are to break and tear. So apply a cream to moisturize your nails, especially after removing nail polish since most removers contain chemicals that dry the nails.
