We are all aware of the allergy situation. Builder products are becoming more and more popular (not always appropriately). What is also becoming more popular are coloured/opaque builders.
Aqui está o que também está acontecendo com muita frequência:
- allowing clients to keep a coloured coating on for many weeks
- using an opaque builder gel or an opaque hard gel and not removing this layer on a very regular basis
- como muitos relataram, os sintomas indesejáveis podem aparecer em poucos dias, sem falar em semanas.
Por que você precisa fazer exames de saúde das unhas? Bem, o último ponto diz tudo!
If an opaque layer is left on, then you cannot possibly see the nail plate to check that all is well.
O que deve acontecer?
- a UV gel polish is designed to stay on for 2-3 weeks! Not 4,5,6 etc. It is irrelevant that a client may want this! If they do, then they are NOT the right client for this service. Clients need to be educated as to why this is important. One of the issues of some of the most problematical nail coating products is the fact that they usually have a high HEMA content!
Many nail pros like this because nail prep doesn’t have be so precis. Additionally, clients like the longevity as it will stick like nothing else! Both of these are far from ideal for the health of the nail.
- não há problema em usar um construtor opaco ou gel duro. MAS você DEVE removê-lo após, no máximo, três semanas de uso para verificar.
The solution to this is to soak off the builder. Or a popular solution is to apply a clear builder or a thin clear coating, then buff or e-file off the opaque layers. The clear layer will allow to check on the health of the nail before reapplying the colour.
- an allergy that is not noticed will just keep getting worse, resulting in horrible and painful conditions and possible loss of the nail plate. It is likely to result in the client not being able to wear any acrylate based coating (all except nail polish). Plus, they will have wider implications with dental and orthopaedic procedures.
Big message: do not ignore checking the health of your clients nail plate and nail bed!
