Nails


Nails are a way to make you look a bit more formal and elegant. Acrylic nails, wrap nails, duck feet nails, gel nails, press on nails and others are just some of the many types of nails that are used every day by women. There are also manicures and pedicures and both men and women can receive one. The price for getting any procedure of nails varies depending on the place and what type of nails you get done. Also on any nails that you get done can have diamonds sparkles and a few other accessories to make the nails look even prettier than they already are. Gel nails are more expensive than acrylic nails just because gel nails look better for a while longer because of the coat of gel applied to the top of the acrylic. to put on fake nails at a salon or at home you need acrylic powder(there is clear and also different colors and some even have sparkles) you also need nail primer which helps the adhesion of enchantments to the natural a nail and nail tips (there is clear, white and designed tips) the tips you can leave as is or you can get nail polish and paint them to your choice of color. Nails are also useful if you do not want to use nail tips. If you are going to use nail tips you will need nail adhesive to glue the nail tip to the natural nail. To apply the acrylic you will need a little dappen dish and acrylic monomer and an acrylic brush. The smell of the acrylic monomer is very strong that is why women that are pregnant are advised not to get their nails done because it might do some harm since the smell is very strong and it can harm a baby. Anyone can get their nails done because there is a range of inexpensive nails to expensive nails. if a nail tip is going to be used to form the nail you first put a drop of nail adhesive to the natural nail then put the nail tip and apply some pressure and then let it dry, then you dip the brush in the monomer and then place the brush on the acrylic powder and get a little ball and place it on the nail and spread it and repeat it again until there is a nice thick layer so the nail will be able to hold and till it looks nice. After the brush is not needed no more clean the brush y dipping it in the monomer and then swipe it on a towel tip all the acrylic powder seems to be gone. After the nail is dry you want to even it out using a nail file. Then if the nail is going to have gel you get the gel and brush on a layer so it can look nicer for a while longer. Yes gel nails look better for longer just because of the gel but acrylic nails also last for a while just a bit less than gel nails.
