Perfect manicure: professional advice

For several seasons in a row, nails of a small length and a natural semicircular shape have been in fashion. This cannot but rejoice, since a modern girl leads an active lifestyle, and too long natural nails require special treatment.

“Nowadays it is customary to combine the color of nail polish not with a shade of an outfit, but with accessories. Varnish to match a belt, bag or scarf is an easy way to create an actual image, says the master Elena Vnukova. – The choice of color is set not only by fashion trends, but also by the girl’s personal preferences. Fortunately, there is plenty to choose from in the variety of popular trends. So, now natural shades of beige, pink and caramel are popular. It is important to remember that natural nude skin tones and translucent nails need to be matched to your skin tone for a natural look. Deep wine tones do not go out of fashion – purple, burgundy red, plum. Moreover, they can be easily combined with gold and black – a very fresh and original solution. Precious metal shades look great on their own too. Gold and silver manicure goes well with jewelry made from matching metals. A very unusual and fashionable combination – French manicure with a black base and gold or silver stripes. Blue is the perfect base for a “space” manicure, also one of the most fashionable this season. It uses a varnish with a lot of glitters, as a result, the effect of twinkling stars is created on the nails. “

Almost all clients, first deciding to decorate their nails in a manicure room, ask the master the same question: “Which is better: acrylic or gel, gel polish or biogel?” Let’s try to figure it out.

“The answer lies primarily in the needs of the client. The materials used by the masters are practically the same in composition and differ only in the final density. The softest material is gel polish, which is why it is considered to be the least harmful to nails. Even the most inexperienced nail technician will be able to perform this procedure, providing a long-lasting glossy finish on beautiful natural nails. It will last from 7 to 10 days, then you need to make a correction, “- says the experts of the studio of the nail service” Selena “.

What if there is often no opportunity or time to make a correction? And if the nails are beautiful and grow quickly, but break or exfoliate from the constant influence of the external environment, and you really want to grow long ones? Biogel for nails is irreplaceable here! A strengthened, protected marigold will very quickly reach the desired length, and the correction after 4-6 weeks will no longer be so burdensome.

“If nature has not rewarded a beautiful shape of the nail plate, it is worth considering gel nail extension. You will receive marigolds very similar to natural ones, and the master will offer an incredible variety of options to decorate such a manicure. Many professionals have chosen gel as the main material for their work and use it to create masterpieces at the fingertips of their clients.

The client’s desire to get nails of a special length or extravagant shape will require real experience and skill from the master, and acrylic is indispensable here. It is the densest of all materials. Acrylic nails can even be twisted into a spiral! He has one drawback – it is a pungent smell, which is not at all harmful to health (remember the smell in a static clinic), but can be annoying. Acrylic requires professional skill, a novice master can ruin the reputation of himself, and the salon, and the material, “- note the experts of the studio of the nail service” Selena “.

A modern girl is often in time trouble: there is less and less time left to take care of herself, but the effect of the procedure is necessary for a long time. This is also true for manicure. Here the combined technique of manicure comes to the aid of women of fashion. “The main techniques of salon manicure are classic edged, European and hardware manicure. But the craftsmen are constantly looking for new methods of cuticle processing so that the quality will delight the client for a whole month. We use a combined manicure, which is performed with a manicure machine and nail scissors. It “lasts” 3-4 weeks, solves the problems of burrs, is able to “calm down” strongly growing cuticles and make the coating as close as possible, “say the experts at Nail studio Ok.

New techniques are also emerging in the field of pedicure. Acid cosmetics are replacing the classic and hardware. Nail studio Ok uses products from the Israeli company Kart. This line of unedged pedicure is the only one approved for diabetes. In addition, the funds have healing properties: after 2-3 procedures, cracks heal, hyperkeratosis and dry feet are significantly reduced.

“With regular salon manicure and pedicure for home care, only the use of a moisturizing or nourishing oil can be recommended. If there is such a problem as a thin cuticle adhered to the nail, then it is necessary to move it with an orange stick. After 2-3 combined manicure procedures, you simply do not need to use tweezers at home. And we, in turn, guarantee the durability of gel polish from three weeks and a gorgeous palette that will not leave indifferent any woman!

We are also ready to help everyone who wants to do manicure and pedicure professionally. We conduct refresher courses, design courses, consulting on the selection of tools and materials. Upon completion of the training, a diploma is issued, “- note the specialists of Nail studio Ok.

Each drawing is carefully planned: colors and shades are selected, the smallest details are thought out. As a result of the operation of this device and the efforts of the master, you will be able to admire a real masterpiece on your nails ”, – note the masters of the NailCouture school-studio of the nail service.

• complex geometric and floral ornaments in 2 minutes;
• miniature figures.

In pursuit of the most fashionable color, shape and design of nails, it is important not to miss an important point: any manicure will fade if the skin of the hands is not well-groomed enough.

“It is the hands that give out the occupation, social status, habits and true age of a woman. For men, hands are a sign of success. But we often forget to take care of them as reverently as for the face. As a result, we get rough, wrinkled skin, ”says nail service master Varvara Sorokina.

There is a whole range of risk factors for the skin of the hands. Firstly, the sun’s rays, wind, frost, dry air contribute to premature aging of the skin and the appearance of age spots. In addition, we continually degrease our hands with detergents, detergents and soaps. Immersion in water in itself contributes to dehydration of the skin, while the stronger the solution of minerals and salts in the water, the more moisture the skin loses. If a woman does not protect her hands, the skin on them quickly becomes flabby and wrinkled.

One of the most important conditions in order to ensure a beautiful and well-groomed appearance of the skin, as well as nails and hair, is a correct, healthy, varied and nutritious diet. Fresh salads, milk, eggs, meat, cottage cheese, grain breads, fruits and vegetables will ensure that your body has enough vitamins B, D, iron, calcium and protein. Therefore, if you have any problems with your hands and nails, pay attention to what you eat.

The stratum corneum of the skin of the hands is, on average, completely renewed within 30 days. So that the process of cell regeneration does not stop, the skin must receive the required amount of fat and moisture, since a lack of them leads to dryness, peeling and inflammation of the skin of the hands.

Hand care products moisturize the skin, compensate for the loss of fat, make the skin soft, tender and elastic. The most convenient and popular are creams that contain biologically active substances (plant extracts, vitamins, glycerin, oils) and fatty components.

Hand skin care rules:

1. Use cream every day after washing your hands. It protects your hands from external factors, moisturizes and softens the skin.

2. For evening care, use regenerating or (if necessary) anti-aging creams for additional skin nourishment. They will ensure the restoration of the skin at night, will have a calming, anti-inflammatory and rejuvenating effect.

3. In the spring-summer period, during morning care, be sure to protect your hands from ultraviolet radiation with a sunscreen. For this purpose, you can use a face emulsion or body milk.

4. Exfoliate your hands and elbows with superficial peels on a weekly basis. This will soften the skin by removing the stratum corneum, activates the activity of cells, moisturizes, softens and brightens the skin.

5. Scrub your skin or use a body salt wrap weekly (you can use it after exfoliation). Apply salt to your hands, massage for 2-3 minutes and wear gloves. After 15 minutes, wash off the remaining salt with water.

6. Self-massage your hands weekly from fingertips to wrist.

7. Perform weekly hand nourishment and regeneration treatment. To do this, apply the nourishing cream to clean hands under cotton gloves for 20-30 minutes, or use special nourishing hand masks.

8. Take care of your nails weekly: nourish with creams, be sure to do a manicure, cover with strengthening and healing varnishes.

9. In winter, protect your hands from the cold.

10. When working in the garden, washing dishes, washing, cleaning, protect your hands with gloves. You just need to take into account that if you work with rubber gloves for more than 10 minutes, your hands begin to sweat, which also dries out the skin. Therefore, if you have a long work ahead of you, it is worth wearing thin cotton gloves under the rubber gloves. If at the same time you saturate them with a nourishing cream, then your hands will not only not suffer during work, but will also receive an excellent treatment. Wash gloves after each use. It is better to do this while they are still in your hands, then remove, rinse from the inside and sprinkle with talcum powder. Dry them away from heating appliances.

11. Wipe your hands dry, as the remaining moisture on them will dry out the skin when evaporating. The skin is not indifferent to what kind of water it comes into contact with. Cold and hard water deteriorates much faster. And if it is quite difficult to change the hardness of water, then trying to use only warm water is available.

Hand care does not require much time and effort. The main thing is that it should be regular. The sooner you start taking care of your hands, the longer you will keep them youthful and beautiful.
