Yes, it is always hard to start the first time – this isapplies to any business. And manicure also seems to be quite a complicated procedure, especially when you look at the work of the master - everything is so fast and smooth. However, nothing is impossible! You can do your own manicure at home, even if you have never held scissors in your hands before. Doubt it? And absolutely in vain! The main thing is to set aside absolutely free time for this, turn off your phone and devote yourself to this activity with all attention.
Standard solution
- Scissors shape the nails - if you havesmall and full fingers, then the oval shape of the nails will suit you, and if you are the owner of the elegant, long fingers of a pianist, you can make square ones ("spatula");
- After shaping, be sure to cut the edges of the nail file. It is better to choose the glass instrument;
- Now we need to process the nail bed - we work withcuticle. In manicure sets there is such a stick with a slightly pointed end, it is made from an orange tree and it is it that pulls back the overgrown skin. If the cuticle is rather dense, then first break up your hands - it will be easier for you;
- Well, now you can apply and varnish - neatly andnot hurrying, staining all the sections of the nail. Try not to get the varnish on the skin or on the cuticle, and if this happens, immediately remove the blot with a cotton swab;
- Wait until the varnish dries, apply the fixing agent on top. Thus, you will achieve the glitter of the nails, and will last such a manicure longer.
For beginners, I would like to clarify one detail:If you use matte varnish (enamel), be extremely careful - this type of coating does not tolerate fuss and requires accuracy. After all, enamel, like litmus paper, immediately reveals flaws: uneven strokes, gaps or smears. For beginners, those who are just taking their first steps in this business, it is best to use mother-of-pearl, light-colored - on this, small mistakes are not very visible.
Drawing on nails
For beginners, a manicure with a design generally seems like something extremely complicated - and in vain! Look how simple it is:
- We put on a fingernail a colorless varnish, we wait for full drying;
- Now, with a white matte varnish, we paint stripes at the very top of the nails. For beginners, it will be difficult - use special patches for the French manicure;
- Now take the black lacquer (enamel) and remove the needle from the brush with a drop. Now, on a white strip, we apply arbitrary strokes.
Everything, modern, fashionable and even creativethe manicure is ready. By the way, for beginners it is better to use this option, because it is considered the easiest to perform. After you have learned a little and can easily do the black and white option, you can try more complex ones:
- We put a varnish on fingernails or nails - here it is possible to choose any color, but only dull;
- Now, with a needle or toothpick, we put two or three drops of a different color and start painting. A twig, leaves, flowers, abstraction - anything that you like best;
- Be sure to apply after completely drying the fixing varnish.
This manicure is also not suitable for beginners.too complicated, because almost everyone can draw a star or a snowflake. Just keep in mind that a complex design cannot be applied to every nail - it will look too defiant. Usually, one or two fingers are decorated this way - this is enough to impress and create a unique image of a fashionable and stylish lady. You can try decorating your nails with rhinestones - even for beginners it will not be difficult! Just glue them on the nail in any order - that's it, an exclusive manicure is ready. It must be said that manicure is such an interesting process that you can get seriously carried away by it. Many ladies change their nail polish and decorations so often that sometimes you don't have time to keep track of everything! But this is good - each time you can show your mood or feelings to others, you can choose a color to match your suit or dress, create your own unique image and always surprise others. Show everyone your style, taste and ability to do a manicure - many do not even realize that it is not difficult at all.
