¿Hay que limar la uña natural antes de un recubrimiento de dos semanas?

No, this practice is generally not recommended, as it can lead to cumulative damage. If a nail grows at a normal rate, filing the placa para clavos each time a revestimiento is applied could result in eight rounds of filing before it reaches the borde libre. This increases the risk of over-thinning and weakening the nail plate, especially when coatings are frequently removed.

Minimizing Filing to Protect Nail Health

Over-filing is a common issue in nail salons, and additional damage can occur if coatings are improperly removed. I recommend that técnicos de uñas limit filing on the nail plate as much as possible. If filing is necessary, use only a fine abrasivo and apply minimal pressure, heavy pressure increases the risk of damage.

Choosing Nail Coating Systems That Protect Natural Nail Health

Many advanced nail coating systems now require minimal or no filing to achieve good adhesion. I suggest finding a system that doesn’t depend on excessive filing. If adhesion loss is an issue, it may indicate an underlying problem with the application or product, rather than the need for more filing.

Remember, recubrimientos de uñas adhere better to a healthy, thick nail plate. Avoid over-thinning, and choose solutions that protect the natural thickness and health of the nail.
