Our Definitive Guide to Nail Salon Treatments

What

better way to show off your new, very sparkly engagement ring than by having an immaculate manicure to match? It doesn’t matter if you have brittle or torn nails, have trouble growing them, or you’re a biter – there’s a salon treatment to help your nails look instantly beautiful and healthy.

You can, of course, paint your nails at home, but where’s the fun in that? At a salon you get to relax, be pampered, and walk out with smooth hands and flawless nails.

Overwhelmed by all your options? We provide you with all the help you need, to get your nails camera-ready for your wedding day.

Manicures Many women regularly have manicures, which involves buffing and shaping the nails, and then applying a colour. There are different types of manicure, but the most popular for the Big Day is the French. With this option the nail base is coated in a light pink, and the tip is painted white, which is essentially an enhanced version of your nail’s natural state (much like how we wear pink lipstick), and is considered an elegant and timeless go- to. With all of these manicures, you’re improving your nails by simply painting over them, but if you want to add length or thickness to your natural nails, you need artificial enhancements. For this you have two choices: nail overlays and nail extensions.

Nail Overlays During this process you get a strengthening mixture painted on top of your natural nails, and this makes them harder and more durable, but not longer. Overlays are ideal if you struggle to grow your nails, or if they’re weak and prone to breaking or splitting.

Nail Extentions As the name suggests, this is the option to choose if you want longer nails instantaneously. A lightweight plastic plate that follows the shape of your natural nail, is glued to the nail tip and then a strengthening mixture is applied over the entire surface, to keep the tip in place. You can shape the tip into any style you choose, from round and square to stiletto.For both overlays and extensions you can choose which strengthening system to use: acrylic, gel or fibreglass.

Acrylic

This is one of the oldest, most affordable and popular types of nail treatment available. A technician will mix a powdered acrylic with a liquid acrylic, and then brush this onto your natural nail - if you’re having an overlay - and onto your nail and tip - if you’re having extensions. The product hardens quickly when it’s exposed to air, and when it’s dry it forms an elongated nail. This is filed to the length and shape you want, and then it’s buffed until it shines.There are two types of acrylic nails – normal, and pink and white.

- With normal acrylics you can use any colour polish over the nail, and this can easily be removed at home, when you’re bored, and replaced with a different shade.

- Pink and white acrylics have a translucent base and a white tip, which replicate normal nails.

Acrylics grow out with your natural nail growth, and so they last for about 2 weeks, before a gap appears between your cuticle and your artificial nail. Instead of having a new set done, you can choose to have them filled, where your nail technician simply tops up the “gap” with the same colour, and your nails look like new. *This treatment is widely available, and it’s the strongest, thickest and most durable type of artificial nail.

It’s ideal for the active woman, or if you want something that won’t easily chip. If they’re not applied professionally, your nails will look thick and unnatural. The most common problem is infection between the false nail and your real nail, which happens if they’re poorly fitted or not properly maintained. Long term use can also leave your nails weaker and more brittle.

Gel These are quickly gaining popularity as a more natural-looking artificial nail. They’re formed by painting a premixed liquid chemical gel onto your nails, and after each coat, your nails are put under a UV lamp to “cure”- which means to set them. The hardened gel creates an artificial nail coat on top of your natural nail, and this strengthens it. You can use the gel to fix broken or split nails, or you can paint over your extensions to give you extra length. You can also get a gel manicure that is cured using a special activator, or by dipping your hands in water, if you don’t want to use a UV light. Gel nails, like acrylics, will grow out after about 2 weeks, but will last longer if you choose to have them filled * Gel nails are hard and glossy and resemble your natural nails. The gel doesn’t turn yellow or damage the nail bed underneath. It forms a protective layer which promotes growth, and this makes it perfect for people who want help growing their own nails. The gel is odourless and because it hardens within minutes, there’s no chance of accidentally bumping your wet nails, or waking up in the morning with your sheet pattern imprinting on your nails.

You can apply polish or leave them clear and

shiny. This treatment is usually more expensive than acrylic nails. The gel is more flexible and therefore less durable than acrylics, which means that the colour will chip quicker on a person who is very active. With most gels you have to return to the salon to have them professionally removed. from: http://www.brideonline.com.au

Choose Your Wedding Cake with Janet Mohapi-Banks Once you have choosen your cake designer, it’s time to decide upon the flavour or flavours of the cakes that will make up your wedding cake. Years ago it was simple, you had rich fruit cake and that was that. Nowadays you have the choice of every flavour under the sun. From classic sponge to rich chocolate cake to lime and passion fruit! The only thing that narrows .your choice are your likes and dislikes and your imagination When you visit your cake designer you should be offered some samples. My clients get to choose three cake samples on our first visit and once I’m secured as their cake designer they can try as many flavours and make as many tweaks to the recipe as necessary to ensure that they get the cake they really want. I often suggest to my brides and grooms that they have at least one tier of rich fruit cake for their more traditional guests. Many people opt to have a different flavour for each tier, whilst others feel that the choice might be unfair .for their guests and so stick to a single flavour throughout

There are good and bad aspects to both of these decisions: 1. If you choose a single flavour throughout, it is best to stick to a well-known and well-liked flavour such as classic sponge, vanilla sponge, rich chocolate or rich fruitcake as you want everybody to enjoy the cake and therefore your choice is slightly limited.

2. If you decide upon different flavours for each tier you run the risk of guests being disappointed at not being able to have the flavour of their choice. For this reason it is advisable that the largest tiers be very popular flavours, and the more unusual flavours are kept for the smaller top tiers.

3. Another option is to have a very large cake, which is currently very on trend, so all guests can enjoy all flavours.

4. It is still very popular for people to keep the top tier of the wedding cake for either their first anniversary or the christening, baptism or naming ceremony of their first born child. If you would like to keep the top tier you must make it a rich fruit cake as no other cake can remain edible for that amount of time. Also, for the long lasting qualities, the rich fruit cake should be loaded with alcohol as it’s the alcohol in the cake

that preserves it. In my opinion you really can’t beat a very good rich fruit cake. Whatever cake centre you choose, make sure it is moist and scrumptious so the cake tastes as good as it look. After all, cake is for eating!

Cost Saving Tips Of all the events you plan in your life, your wedding is likely to be the most expensive. But it doesn’t have to cost a fortune to create a beautiful and .memorable day

The average cost of getting married in New Zealand is around $35,000.

That’s a lot of money in anyone’s language – and you could easily spend twice that amount if you really wanted to get carried away. But you don’t have to pour tens of thousands of dollars into a single event. It is possible to get married on a more modest budget and still have one of the best days of your life - Have your wedding on a weekday as it’s usually cheaper than the ever-popular Saturday.

- Bake your own cake and have a professional ice and decorate it.

- Send email invites or set up a website for your wedding.

- Get married in the off-season – May to September.

- Have your reception and ceremony at the same venue to save on transportation costs and flowers.

- An eye-catching arrangement of iced cupcakes can be dismantled and boxed at the end of the evening to be sent home with guests as favours.

- Much of the expense of a wedding gown lies in the fabric. Opt for the same style in a more economical fabric such as duchess satin, taffeta or chiffon.

- Buffet meals allow hungrier guests to go back for more, and the staffing requirements are less so they’re cheaper than a plated menu.

- Ask talented family and friends to contribute their skills in lieu of a gift.
