Aftercare

Be extra gentle with the nails for the first 24-48 hours after a manicure, as the bonds between the nails and the coating are still building. Avoid Prolonged Water Exposure: Limit long baths, showers, or swimming, as excessive water can weaken the nails and cause the polish to lift. Protect Nails During Activities: Wear gloves when doing dishes, cleaning, gardening, or other activities that involve harsh chemicals or prolonged water contact. Moisturize Regularly: Apply hand cream and cuticle oil daily to keep the nails and surrounding skin hydrated and healthy. Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Be cautious when using nail polish removers, as acetone can dry out and damage the nails. Don't Use Nails as Tools: Avoid using your nails to pry open lids or as tools, as this can cause chipping or damage. Be Gentle with Nails: Avoid picking or biting at nails or the surrounding skin, as this can lead to infections or damage. Avoid Oily Products Avoid moisturisers, sun cream or tanning products which contain lanolin or mineral oil as these can cause gels and acrylics to weaken and lift Regular Salon Visits Regular follow up appointments with nail technicians can help maintain beautiful manicures
