Manicure: What you should consider for beautiful and healthy nails

A well-maintained manicure is not only beautiful to look at, but also important for the health of your nails. Here you will find everything you need to know about manicures, including tips, procedures, and current trends.


What is done during a manicure?


A professional manicure involves caring for your nails and cuticles. The process usually includes the following steps:

Cleaning and Disinfection:
Hands are cleaned and disinfected.
Nail Care:
Nails are filed, shaped, and possibly buffed.
Cuticle Removal:
Cuticles are gently pushed back or removed to make the nails look clean.
Skin Care:
A nourishing hand massage and care products ensure soft skin.
Optional:
Application of UV gel wraps for a long-lasting look.


How long does a normal manicure take?


A classic manicure usually takes between 30 and 60 minutes. The exact duration depends on the scope of the treatment, e.g., whether it only includes nail care or also the application of UV nail wraps.


Why is cuticle removal controversial in manicures?


Cuticle removal is a controversial topic. While it ensures a clean nail appearance, it can also carry risks: Pros: With professional removal, the nail looks cleaner and the manicure lasts longer. Cons: Aggressive removal can injure the cuticle, lead to infections, and impair nail health. Many experts therefore recommend only gently pushing back the cuticles and not completely removing them to protect the natural barrier of your nails.

Important before applying UV gel nail wraps


Before applying Manifix UV gel nail wraps, you should perform a thorough manicure. It is particularly important to degrease the nails well. This is best achieved with a cleaner or dish soap to ensure optimal adhesion of the wraps.
