Nail Appointment Care Guide💗

Make it so you can actually see the free edge, and its a natural nail colour with no polish at all

Nail Appointment Care Guide

Pre-Appointment Preparation

• Come with clean, product-free nails - Remove all polish, gel, or enhancements at least 24 hours before your appointment


• Avoid oils and moisturisers on nails and cuticles - Skip hand cream, cuticle oil, or any oily products on the day of your appointment as they prevent proper adhesion


• Ensure previous enhancements are removed properly - If you have existing gel or acrylics, have them soaked off carefully rather than picked or peeled to avoid nail damage


• Keep nails dry for 2-3 hours beforehand - Avoid soaking hands in water (swimming, long baths, washing up) as wet nails won’t bond well with products


• Don’t cut or push back cuticles yourself - Leave cuticle work to your nail technician to avoid damaging the nail bed or causing infections

Post-Appointment Aftercare

• Avoid hot water and steam for 24 hours - Skip hot baths, saunas, or dishwashing without gloves heat & moisture can cause lifting


• Wear gloves for household tasks - Protect your nails from harsh chemicals, prolonged water exposure, and impacts during cleaning


• Apply cuticle oil daily - Keep cuticles and surrounding skin hydrated to prevent lifting and promote healthy nail growth


• Don’t use nails as tools - Avoid opening cans, scratching, or picking at things to prevent chips, breaks, and lifting


• Book infills on time - Schedule maintenance every 2-3 weeks(gel polish)/3-4 weeks (extensions) to prevent overgrowth, lifting, and potential nail damage

Cuticle Oil Benefits

• Prevents lifting and extends wear - Well-hydrated cuticles create a better seal around the enhancement, reducing gaps where water and dirt can enter


• Promotes healthy nail growth - Nourishes the nail matrix (growth area) encouraging stronger, faster-growing natural nails


• Maintains flexibility - Keeps enhancements supple and less prone to cracking or breaking, especially important for gel and builder gel treatments


• Improves appearance - Keeps cuticles looking neat and prevents dry, ragged skin that detracts from your beautiful nail art


• Protects natural nails - Creates a barrier against environmental damage and helps repair any dehydration caused by enhancement products


• Best applied twice daily - Morning and evening application (especially before bed) gives optimal results for both nail health and enhancement longevity​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
