Gel manicures are meant to extend the length of your nails and also give strength to your weaker nails. They last a good 2-3 weeks and retain their shine if you keep them away from stuff that can damage them. Gel manicures, when done rightly, can enhance your nails. Here’s how you can keep your nails from getting damaged.

Use Safe Methods

Gel manicures need time to set and must also be removed carefully. You may need nail soaking sessions to get your earlier manicure polish removed. Do this under the supervision of a nail expert using the right solvents and products.

Take Time Off

You could do well to take some breaks between your gel nail appointments. Although this is not really necessary if you are getting your nails done regularly by a professional and qualified nail technician. For people who face nail problems such as staining, peeling, ridges, etc., a break between manicures is a good idea.

Use Moisturisers and Nail Oils

Brittle nails can become a cause for concern. Regular moisturising can help to rehydrate your nails. Cuticle oil massages as a daily routine are also highly recommended.

Avoid DIY Gel Nails and UV Lamps

Although you may find a lot of gel nail kits and UV lamps for sale online, experts recommend you don’t do this as a DIY. Uncured products and incorrect exposure to UV lamps can harm your nails, the nail bed and also cause allergic reactions. Also, avoid the temptation to peel your gel polish by yourself.

Always Seek a Qualified Manicurist

Although using high quality products is a good start, it’s equally important to  the work done by a qualified manicurist who can tell you how to go about it. The manicurist will check your natural nails and tell you whether you should opt for hard gel nails or soft gels and polishes. A professional manicurist will use the right products and ensure your nails and hands are not harmed while you go through the process.
