Taking Care of your Bio Gel Nails

Posted on by

It maybe hard to believe but your bio gel nails should last unto 3-4weeks.

So Aftercare for your beautiful nails is as follows

Dont’s

  • do not bite, pick at or file at your Gel Nails as this will cause lifting and damage to your natural nail.  Do not pull backwards against the tips of your nails as this could cause injury or breakage (eg. pulling washing out of the washing machine). 
  • Do not use nail clippers or metal files on your enhancements as this can cause chipping, cracking or shattering of the nail. 
  • Do not leave your hands in water for long periods of time without gloves as this can lead to the nail adhesive breaking down which can cause the Gels to become weak and break.
  • Do not do anything which will cause strong or repetitive pressure on your nails as this can lead to cracks which can, lead to a nail break.
  • Do not attempt to repair any lifting or damage to your nail enhancements yourself with glue, plasters or other such methods.  Please contact me and arrange for an appointment for me to repair the damage for you.
  • Do not attempt to shorten the length of your nail enhancements between refill maintenance appointments.  If your nails are getting too long, please contact me to make an appointment for me to shorten them for you.
  • Wear gloves when washing up, gardening or using household chemicals as exposure to these types of products can cause your nails to become weak and/or damaged and prone to breakage.

Reactions

If any adverse reactions occur – rash, redness, inflammation of any kind around the nails  please contact me immediately.

Please do not try to remove your Gel Nails yourself as this can cause major damage to your natural nails.  If you wish to remove your enhancements, please contact me and come into the salon to have them removed properly and safely.

Discolouration can be caused by tinted lotions, suntan creams and some hair products can discolour your nails so wash your hands thoroughly after use or use gloves to protect your nails.

Your New Gel Nails are jewels not tools.  They were not designed to be used as a screwdriver or can opener!
