Gel Nails Are A Great Option


ď śGel nails are a kind of artificial nail that were designed specifically to create the look and feel of a natural nail. Many consumers find such products very beneficial. ď śThis is particularly true for those who have trouble growing out their natural nails.


ď śFingernails manufactured from a gel base contain monomer fluids and polymer powders, similar to those made from an acrylic base. However, there is one primary difference between the two, which is the high flexibility associated with the gel variety. ď śThis is due to the fact that the latter contain an extra ingredient called oligomers. This is the substance responsible for the natural flexibility of each nail.


ď ś There are two different varieties of artificial gel-based nails: light cured gels and no-light gels. The former harden when the tips of the person's fingers are positioned under ultraviolet light for up to five minutes. ď śUltraviolet light is not necessary when the no-light variety are used, as this type is applied with an adhesive substance that can be brushed or sprayed onto each nail.


ď śFingernails of this type have similar characteristics to acrylic versions. For example, they can be painted, brushed with designs, or one can choose to add French tips to their ends. ď śA variety of lengths are available as well, and one can choose from a square, pearl, or round finish for the tips.


ď ś There are many advantages associated with choosing such nails in lieu of acrylic varieties. For example, they are less likely to chip, and therefore last longer. In addition, the substance used to fasten each nail is completely non-toxic, and for this reason they are safe for pregnant women. ď śThey also do not have to be filled as often as their acrylic counterparts.


ď ś Gel-style artificial fingernails are a bit more expensive than the aforementioned type. However, because they last longer, most consumers are not concerned about the cost. ď śThere are certain aspects one must keep in mind when wearing artificial fingernails of this kind.


ď śFor instance, if they break or become damaged, one should not attempt to fix them without assistance. Rather, the person should visit a salon to have the nail filed off and replaced. ď śIn addition, harsh substances, such as decorative glitter or rhinestones should not be placed on their surface.


ď ś Each finger should be cleaned with isopropyl alcohol prior to applying gel nails. This will help to prevent the development of a fungal infection, which can sometimes occur when fake fingernails are applied.
