Don't Neglect Your Acrylic Nails: Causes of Lifting and Tips for Prevention
Overview
Acrylic nail lifting can be a frustrating issue that can ruin the appearance of your manicure. There are several factors that can contribute to lifting, including:
Inferior Products
Using low-quality acrylic products can weaken the bond between the nail and the acrylic.
Inexperienced Technicians
Inadequate technician skill can lead to improper application and weaker bonds.
Inadequate Care
Not properly caring for your acrylic nails by avoiding contact with harsh chemicals or excessive moisture can weaken the bond.
Maintaining Your Acrylic Nails
Proper maintenance is crucial to maintain the longevity and appearance of your acrylic nails. To prevent lifting: * Avoid harsh chemicals and excessive moisture. * Wear gloves when doing chores that involve contact with these elements. * Get regular touch-ups and infills. * Use a nail strengthener to reinforce the natural nail underneath the acrylic. * Moisturize regularly to prevent nails from becoming brittle.
