From practice it is clear that the one who is maddened bytechnological progress, the world decided to make friends with its ancestor, nature, again. Naturalness is triumphantly returning to fashion to the applause of designers, stylists and other beauty gurus. Bright coloring and makeup (akin to Indian war paint), so beloved at the end of the last century, have given way to the natural. Shiny synthetic curtains have disappeared from the windows, and linen is becoming the most popular material. The anthem of naturalness, like a spring breeze, sounds in all spheres of life. This trend has also touched upon such an exciting topic for the beautiful half of humanity as manicure. Girls again want healthy natural nails. The trend of the coming season is short nails covered with white or pink varnish and French manicure. For every day, for example, for work in the office, it is better to use varnishes of neutral colors. For a friendly party, varnishes with various design elements are suitable. A special manicure is needed for different occasions.
Artificial nails
Until recently, nail extensions were a personal matter.the pride of many beauties. Monumental stucco moldings could flaunt on artificial ones, flowers could bloom, and even quite realistic aquarium fish could “swim” in the thickness of the nail itself. How convenient it is to constantly, without the right to a day off, wear a work of art on your own fingers is a debatable question. Fans enthusiastically assured that a giant nail is not an obstacle to either washing or ironing, and it is even more convenient to bathe a baby or change a diaper. Whether these admiring reviews will be shared by the babies themselves and other heroes, honored to be caressed by a gentle female brush with an extended nail - it is better to ask them. But for the owners of such a manicure, beauty, as the proverb says, is really worth the cruel sacrifices. Acrylic A popular material for extensions is acrylic. It hardens at lightning speed, and therefore the alignment always happens in a hurry. The chemicals contained inside are loudly evidenced by the far from floral aroma. And behind the seemingly strong artificial layer, there are hidden the suffering nails, wounded by such a procedure. The main trouble threatening a lady who decided to have her nails extended is an allergy. Over time, the acrylic will turn yellow. Victims of newbies in the manicure business may be in for an unpleasant surprise - an acrylic layer with pits and bumps, if it is not leveled in time. And after its retirement, this substance will leave real nails thin and brittle, because all the time the extended manicure lasted, it invisibly "strangled" them, being an air-tight armor. Gel Gel manicure "smiles" at ladies from advertising brochures of salons with a hypocritical smile. Why hypocritical? Because externally it is really smooth. The client of the salon will be assured that the gel will even allow her nails to breathe. But such a compromise will not improve the woman's health. After all, at the beginning, when the layers of gel are just applied, they will be dried for a long time under a lamp, crippling the natural nails with ultraviolet light. When the time comes to get rid of the layered masterpiece, the process will again be traumatic - the layers are not removed immediately, for this you will have to use a file for a long time.
Consequences of wearing artificial nails
The sad consequence of building up isdamaged by unprofessional matting of the nail root. When a lady's nail is mechanically degreased, it is very important not to remove the extra layer. The injured root affects the production of new cells. If the master took a coarse-grained file in his hands, then the client is guaranteed to file too aggressively. And instead of the permissible three to five layers, you can say goodbye to thirty-five. As a result of such manipulation, the chemistry contained in the material for extension will combine with spongy cells - then itching or burning is the least of the negative consequences of the procedure. Why do ladies turn to extensions? The only answer is for aesthetic reasons. In fact, your real nails can look just as attractive, only for this, you will have to take care of them, like the rest of your body.
How to cure natural nails?
Resuscitate a victim of extensionsnail will help individually developed tactics. Firstly, do not dream about grown natural nails until the entire plate is restored again (immediately after removing the artificial layers, it is thin, possibly in streaks and spots). Now you will have to file your natural manicure towards the center - then the likelihood that the nail will delaminate at the wrong time will decrease significantly. It is also better to leave the cuticle in place for the time being. Masks are useful for all types, including healthy nails. The berry summer period is a wonderful reason to feed your nails tired over the year with strawberries. The procedure is elementary - rub the berry, ground to a mushy appearance, into the nail. Ten minutes - and thanks to the strengthening properties of the acids contained in the mask, the nails will feel much happier.
General health of nails
Strengthening your nails is necessary starting from the beginningof the body as a whole. After all, they, like the skin, are a mirror of the diseases living in a person. Sufficient fluid intake - clean water and fresh juices will not be slow to affect the nails. Positively, of course. Wet nails (after a shower and washing hands) are more vulnerable than dry ones. Therefore, you need to start a manicure with drying your hands. Hangnails indicate a lack of protein and vitamin C. A corrected menu is the good doctor Aibolit, who will definitely defeat harmful hangnails. Apricots, carrots, cheese, as well as products with calcium are true friends of healthy natural nails. And, of course, do not forget about dairy products - kefir, milk, sour cream, yogurt. Another assistant is a salt bath. Only you need to bathe your hands in it not once a year, but regularly. Moreover, such baths must be done at least twice a week. For this you will need only hot water and salt. Dissolve salt in water at the rate of three tablespoons of salt per liter. The water should be as hot as you can stand. The duration of the bath is at least 30 minutes. After that, dry your hands and apply any moisturizer. Finally, you can remember the stupid habit of biting your nails. More often, this is a consequence of an unbalanced mental state. If a lady has caught herself in something like this, it is better to look for another way to relieve stress. Such an action (and often its roots grow back in childhood), if it is constant, can injure the nail plate much more than even a one-time extension. Do not offend your nails, then they will definitely reciprocate your care - health and a pleasant shine. We advise you to read:
