• Apply hand cream regularly.
• Rubber gloves should be worn as water and detergents will weaken the nails and have a drying effect on the skin and they will prolong the life of your varnish.
• Drink plenty of water as this helps strengthen the nails and hydrates the skin and is essential part of maintaining a healthy body (we recommend 6-8 glasses per day).
• Eat a healthy, balanced diet – include at least five portions of fruit and vegetables.
• Gentle buffing of the nails will strengthen them.
• Allow adequate time after your manicure for your nails to dry before leaving the salon.
• Massage cuticle with oil.
• Use non-acetone varnish remover.
• Have regular manicures.
