The most popular nail services these days use opaque nail coatings (e.g. UV gel polish and opaque builders). This means that you cannot see the nail plate without removing the coating. But a nail health check is imperative!
If you have had experience or been following the stories of client allergies, you’ll know that a reaction can appear within days, not weeks.
Now, if an allergic reaction does take hold, you need to remove the coating immediately:
- Para permitir que as unhas comecem a cicatrizar
- To remove the allergen asap
An allergic reaction can start slowly, with minimal symptoms, but it can also be extreme with symptoms, such as severe onycholysis on all nails, hyperkeratosis, and splinter hemorrhages. removing coatings from this type of effect is quite shocking and horrifying for both client and nail pro.
Now, as a side ‘story’ that is very relevant to understand, for every coating you put on a natural nail, there will be a compromise you need to make. This is one of the many reasons oil is a non-negotiable daily.
Todos sabem e aceitam que, se você descolorir o cabelo, ele precisará de cuidados adicionais depois, para sempre. Você pode usar detergente líquido como xampu e amaciante de roupas como condicionador. Isso fará o trabalho, mas não tão eficazmente quanto os produtos reais. Por que quase todo mundo acha que pode fazer o que quiser com as unhas e não entende os compromissos?
If clients want the benefits of nail coatings, they need to play their part in taking care of them. And so do nail pros!!!!
If you are concerned about the use of acetone for soaking so regularly:
- Acetone is not an allergen but it may be an irritant. Its drying effect is temporary as the skin is producing natural oils all the time so will be replaced in minutes. OR, coat the skin with oil before the soak if clients don’t like the drying effect.
- Buff off. Whether it is hand buffing or an e-file removal, the action does disturb the physical attachment of the nail plate onto the nail bed. ‘Gentle’ is the key word. Apart from thinning the nail plate, harsh buffing can cause the physical bond to ‘pop’.
Verificar a saúde das unhas é realmente essencial. Então, existe uma solução para a remoção a cada 2 ou 3 semanas? Sim, é claro que existe!
Apply a clear layer first. Then apply any of the opaque options. This means that only the opaque coating needs to be removed without going near the nail plate. (A situation where an e-file would be invaluable)
Não comprometa a verificação da saúde de suas unhas, mas entenda que outros compromissos precisam ser feitos para serviços de unhas inteligentes.
