There are many ways in which you can support the length and durability of your manicure. Please avoid submerging your hands in water for long periods. This is most important during the first 24 hours after your appointment. This will affect the length of time your gel manicure will last. Your nails are jewels, not tools, which is a saying you may here often, so please remember to look after them. Hydrate your hands, making sure that you moisturise after hand washing and sanitiser. Cuticles: Oil twice daily with an oil that has either jojoba or avocado oil in. Hands: Exfoliate twice a week Moisturise after hand washing Wear gloves for washing up & gardening Feet: Exfoliate once a week Use a pumice stone after your bath or shower on heels and dry/hard skin. Moisturise after bath/shower Foot mask, once a week Please don't use your nails to pick labels, open tins, or parcels. You may damage them. Try a keysie as me for more information. Book regular appointments every 2 - 4 weeks, dependent on your nail growth, after care, preferences and how you use your hands.
