Phá bỏ huyền thoại: Tại sao không nên cạo lông chân trước khi làm móng chân

Contrary to popular belief, there are several reasons why you shouldn’t shave your legs before a pedicure.

Rachel Miest, assistant professor of dermatology at Mayo Clinic, said (in an interview with USA Today) “It’s not always obvious how bacteria and fungus can wreak havoc and even clean-shaven legs or cut nail folds could seriously raise risk of infection. Note: Serious infections associated with nail salon services are rare, but they do happen.”

Hiểu được mục tiêu cốt lõi của việc chăm sóc móng chân

A cosmetic pedicure should make you look good and feel good. Pampering your feet and shaping your toenails is a relaxing experience. Finish that off with a gorgeous nail Polish or a gel Polish and you’re good to go.

Remember, if you’re having your nails polished, your nail Polish needs to be removed in time.

Nail Polish or nail varnish has a life cycle and after about 7 to 14 days, depending on which brands your salon is using, the product starts to breakdown and little mini cracks appear in it. These mini cracks allow water when you’re showering or taking a bath to creep underneath the fractured nail polish and you could develop a surface fungal infection called Bệnh nấm móng nông màu trắng. Điều tương tự cũng đúng với sơn gel, nó cũng có vòng đời, thường là khoảng 3 tuần, sau đó nó cũng sẽ có dấu hiệu nứt vỡ, và việc tắm vòi sen hoặc tắm bồn sẽ khiến nước thấm vào bên dưới lớp sơn gel.

If however, removing your gel Polish or your nail Polish is too much hassle, get your salon to put a permanent nail product on your nail plates before applying the gel polish or the nail polish. A thin layer of Liquid & Powder acrylic will make the world of difference and means you can enjoy the color of your toe nails a lot longer.

Rủi ro tiềm ẩn khi cạo râu trước khi làm móng chân

Shaving just prior to your pedicure causes little micro cuts and irritation abrasions to your legs. You can’t always see them but they are there.

All salon tools should be new or sanitised before they touch your feet. That means technicians should be opening packaging or pulling tools out of a hygiene solution, (usually a blue liquid).

Pay attention to the pedicure spa basin before you stick your feet in it. Salons should be disinfecting those after each use or using Disposable liners that they get rid of after each service. If you’re unsure of salons cleaning practises, it doesn’t hurt to ask them.

Removing the skin around your nails has no benefit, but for some reason is a routine part of most cosmetic pedicures. The only possible advantage could be that when this skin is removed, there is more nail to polish. But this process doesn’t make sense. The proximal nail fold and the lateral nail folds (that’s the skin around your nails) are there for a reason. They protect the nail, and the nail unit from infection. Cutting the skin or mechanically removing it is asking for trouble.

Phần kết luận

Having a cosmetic pedicure should be a relaxing and fun experience. Good communication is part of making this happen. No one wants to walk out of a salon with somebody else’s infection and I am sure that there are no salons that want their clients to do so. Just pop into the salon any time before you make your appointment so you can see how serious the salon is about customer and personal hygiene.

It’s just smart to not shave your legs the morning before you go to your cosmetic podiatrist. Why run the risk?
