Why acrylic nails are so popular

Did you know that Acrylic nails are used in all sorts of occasions? They can help if you are a nail biter, to hide or repair broken, damaged, or short nails. The are also great if they would look better a little bit longer.

If your nails are short and bitten, I can build you a new nail bed with Acrylic. In most cases people who bite their nails stop biting them after a few months if they follow my care plan.

If you have natural nails that seem to split or break off once they get to a nice length. You can use Acrylic as the acrylic gives your nails that little bit of extra strength.

History & application

Acrylic nails are very popular and one of the most common form of artificial nails since 1954. Acrylic nails can be applied in a few different ways; a simple acrylic overlay over your natural nails for extra strength, add a plastic tip for extra length than with the acrylic over the top for structure, sculptured, or with the help of pigments, you can colour the acrylic and get really creative with your nail art designs.

To apply the acrylic to the nail, the nail technician must to some prep work to your natural nail bed to make sure the acrylic will last. After that to apply the acrylic the nail technician will make a mixture of acrylic liquid and powder which is then applied to the nail to create the desired shape and structure that is needed, after a few minutes it will harden allowing the nail technician to shape the acrylic to perfection.

Acrylic nails are very durable and can be left natural or decorated with many different systems like gel overlay, nail polish, magnetic gel, foils, glitter, stencils, stamping, pigments, nail art etc..
