           Steps for after care of acrylic nails


           Aftercare is crucial  to maintaining  the health  and appearance of your natural  nails  after the application  and
           removal of acrylic nails.
           •  Moisturize Regularly: Keep the nails and cuticles moisturized to prevent dryness and promote overall nail
              health. Use cuticle oil or a moisturizing hand cream.
           •  Nail Strengthener: Consider using a nail strengthener or a nourishing base coat to promote the strength and
              resilience of your natural nails.
           •  Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Be cautious with exposure to harsh chemicals, including household cleaning agents.
              Wear gloves to protect your nails when performing tasks that involve contact with chemicals.

           •  Gentle Nail Care: Be gentle with your natural nails. Avoid using them to open packages, scrape off labels, or
              perform other tasks that may put stress on the nails.
           •  Regular Maintenance: If you choose to continue with acrylic nails, schedule regular maintenance appointments
              with a professional nail technician. This may include fills, repairs, or changes in design.
           •  Give Nails a Break: Allow your natural nails to breathe by taking breaks between acrylic applications. This
              gives your nails a chance to recover and helps prevent potential damage.

           •  Trim and Shape: Keep your natural nails trimmed and shaped to your desired length. Regular maintenance
              helps prevent breakage and maintains a neat appearance.
           •  Healthy Diet and Hydration: A healthy diet and proper hydration contribute to overall nail health. Foods rich
              in vitamins and minerals, along with adequate water intake, can promote strong and healthy nails.
           •  Avoid Nail Biting: If you have a habit of nail biting, take steps to break this habit. Biting can lead to damage
              and weaken the natural nails.
           •  Protective Measures: Use protective measures, such as gloves, when engaging in activities that may expose
              your nails to excessive moisture, chemicals, or physical impact.

           •  Monitor for Issues: Keep an eye on your natural nails for any signs of issues, such as discoloration, changes
              in thickness, or unusual textures. If you notice anything unusual, consult with a healthcare professional or a
              nail technician.

           •  Professional Consultation: If you experience discomfort, pain, or notice any abnormalities with your natural
              nails, consult with a professional nail technician or a dermatologist for advice and assistance.
