Tips for Nail Protection
Here you will find several simple quick tips that will ensure your nails are groomed and in tip top condition.
Weekly Nail Care Tips (15-20 minutes each week)
1. One of the most important parts of maintaining strong, healthy nails for life is making sure you have the vitamins, minerals and other important nutrients to maintain nail strength.
3.Shape the nail, using a file or emery board. File each nail tip from corner to center; do not file in a see-saw motion with the emery board because doing so can cause crestsin the nail and nail splitting.
4. Soak the hands in warm, soapywater for a few minutes to remove dirt. Clean under free edge of nail with orangewood stick.
5. The cuticle is the skin that grows from the finger onto the base of the nail (nail root). We recommend that the cuticle not be pushed back. The cuticle intact helps to prevent infection of the nail growing tissue.
6. Now apply clear nail polish. There is no reason to waste money on several different kinds of clear polishes such as a ridge filler, base coat, and top coat or nail strengthener. They all do about the same job. After the clear polish dries, apply a color polish of your choice if you wish. Let dry. You may then reapply the clear polish as a top coat. This will help strengthen the nail and prevent chipping of the nail polish.
7. Finally, apply a moisturizing cream or lotion to the hands and cuticles. This will help prevent splitting of the nails.
