Aftercare Maintenance for your new Gel Polish Service
Here are some tips and thoughts to help keep your new Gel Polish looking its
very best until your next appointment.
To keep any type of nail service looking great, always remember the golden
rule:
"Treat your
nails as jewels not tools."
DAILY CARE…
· Use cuticle oil daily.
Apply generously at bedtime and massage
into the cuticles and surrounding skin.
· Always use gloves when doing dishes, heavy cleaning or gardening.
· You may apply regular polish over your Gel Polish. When removing or changing
the regular polish use only Acetone Free polish remover.
· If you need to file the nails to alter the length before your next
appointment you can do so but do not cut them.
DO NOT…
· Please do not attempt to remove the Gel Polish yourself as it needs to be
professionally soaked off.
Damage of your nails can occur by removing
the Gel Polish improperly.
· Never bite or pick at the Gel Polish or your nails as it could cause
chipping, peeling or breakage.
REMEMBER:
· Your nail technician recommended this product as being best suited for you
and your lifestyle after a thorough consultation.
· Your
new Gel Polish application should stay beautiful for as much as 2 weeks or up
to 5 weeks on your toes.
· Gel Polish should stay on your nails longer and be more resistant to chipping
than traditional polish.
· Gel Polish is not acrylic or cement! You will need to rethink how you open
jars, pop-top bottle, pick things up etc.
· If you just switched to Gel Polish from acrylic or gel, your nails will not
be able to take the same amount of "abuse" as before. It may take up
to 8 weeks to adjust to the new product. Some breakage and tears are not
unusual in the first several weeks.
· Book your appointment in advance to have the Gel polish color removed and
reapplied every 2 - 3 weeks.
· If
for some reason you experience excessive chipping or peeling within 7 days of
your appointment, please feel free to contact your nail technician for advice.
