Treat your nails like jewels, not tools! - Use cuticle oil at least once a day. - Dry hands thoroughly after washing and apply hand cream. - Wear rubber gloves when doing washing up/cleaning/gardening and avoid having your nails in water for long periods of time. - Avoid harsh chemicals. Please wear gloves whilst cleaning. Thoroughly wash hands after swimming to remove chlorine. - Avoid intense heat eg, hot tubs and saunas especially within first 24 hours. - Do not pick or peel your gel off! Forcefully removing gel (picking/peeling/biting) can remove a layer of your natural nail. This causes weakness and may result in your next set not lasting as long as you’d hope. - Book your next appointment. Leaving this until the last minute may mean having a longer gap between sets which may lead to breakages, lifting etc
