Gel Polish aftercare

 Gel Polish Aftercare Instructions for Clients

Congratulations on your beautiful gel manicure and/or Pedicure! To ensure your nails remain healthy and your polish lasts as long as possible, please follow these aftercare tips:

1. Avoid Water and Chemicals:

-  Avoid soaking your hands in water (e.g., baths, washing dishes- use gloves) and exposure to harsh chemicals, as this can affect the  gel.

2. Moisturize Regularly:

- Apply cuticle oil daily to keep your cuticles and the skin around your nails hydrated. This helps prevent hangnails and keeps your nails looking their best.

3. Be Gentle:

- Avoid using your nails as tools (e.g., opening packages, scratching surfaces) to prevent chipping and breaking.

4. Protect Your Nails:

- Wear gloves when doing household chores or using cleaning products to shield your nails from damage.

5. Avoid Picking or Peeling:

- Do not pick or peel at your gel polish, as this can damage your natural nails. If your polish starts to lift, contact me for removal or a touch-up.

6. Regular Maintenance:

- Schedule your next appointment for fills or removal every 2-3 weeks, depending on your natural nail growth and the condition of your manicure.

7. Proper Removal:

- When it’s time to remove your gel polish, please do not attempt to remove it at home. Contact me for a professional removal to avoid damaging your natural nails.

8. Report Any Issues:

- If you experience any discomfort, lifting, or other concerns with your gel polish, please reach out right away.
