Elegir el sistema adecuado para obtener resultados duraderos
Have you ever encountered clients who complain that gels never seem to last on their nails, no matter what you do? It’s a common frustration for both nail technicians and clients alike. In this blog post, we will delve into the world of nail compatibility and explore how choosing the right system can make a significant difference in the longevity of nail coatings.
Evaluación de las uñas: Factores a tener en cuenta
No todas las uñas son iguales, y lo que funciona perfectamente para una clienta puede no funcionar para otra. A la hora de elegir el sistema de uñas adecuado, hay que tener en cuenta varios factores cruciales:
1. Nail Type Assessment: Soft and pliable vs. Hard and brittle Nails
- Uñas blandas y flexibles: Estas uñas tienden a tener más flexibilidad y pueden no proporcionar una superficie ideal para la adhesión del gel.
- Uñas más duras: Las uñas más firmes suelen funcionar bien con varios sistemas, incluido el gel.
2. Análisis del nivel de actividad
- Clientes muy activos: Los clientes que realizan actividades que someten a sus uñas a un estrés constante, como deportes o trabajos manuales, pueden experimentar recubrimientos de uñas de menor duración. En esta categoría podemos incluir a peluqueras, madres primerizas (sus manos están en el agua todo el tiempo, etc.). Estas clientas suelen obtener mejores resultados con uñas más cortas.
- Low activity clients: Those who have less physically demanding lifestyles may have nails that are more compatible with gel systems. tend to get better results with their nail coatings.
3. Hyperhidrosis Consideration
- La hiperhidrosis se refiere a la sudoración excesiva, que puede afectar a la durabilidad del recubrimiento de las uñas.
- Las clientas con hiperhidrosis pueden experimentar resultados menos duraderos, independientemente del sistema de uñas elegido.
Incompatibilidad del gel y alternativas
For clients with soft, pliable nails, gels may not be the most suitable option. These nails tend to work better with a liquid and powder (L&P) system. The L&P system provides a stronger and more rigid coating, better suited to the natural flexibility of soft nails.
Análisis del nivel de actividad
A client’s level of physical activity plays a significant role in the durability of nail coatings. For high-activity clients, consider recommending additional protective measures or alternative nail systems that can withstand the demands of their lifestyle. Encourage them to be mindful of their nail health during activities that may compromise the longevity of their manicure, and stress on the importance of proper home care.
Caso práctico: Encontrar la solución adecuada
In the specific case of a client with gel compatibility issues, it may be worth trying an L&P system. Perform the necessary nail preparation and apply the L&P system to assess its impact on the client’s nails. Monitor the longevity of the coating and gather feedback to determine if this alternative system provides better results.
