How to Have the Best Mani-Pedi

Here are some insider tips from the expert nail technicians of Nailaholics on how to have the best mani-pedi and how to have perfect nails.

1. Moisture. Moisturize your nails before getting your manicure and pedicure. Hydrated nail beds protect the nails and cause less nail breakage and chips.

2. Base coat. Always use a BASE COAT before applying nail color. The base protects your nails from staining. It also acts as a great adhesive for the polish so that you will enjoy lasting color on your nails.

3. Light strokes. Apply thin coats of color for every layer. This will make the nail polish dries faster and wouldn’t produce air bubbles.

4. Wait. Space out your application between coats to make sure that the nail polish adheres properly to its base. A few minutes will do.

5. 1D. No, I am not talking about the defunct singing group One Direction. Apply you nail polish in one direction. But towards the end, make horizontal swipes across the tip (along the edge) of your nails after your final coat to seal in color and to protect your nails against chipping.

6. Get it cold. If you are in a hurry, you may dip your tips in ice cold water to harden the nail polish faster.

7. Top coat. To extend the life as well as the shine of your manicure, apply really thin coats of topcoat every other day.

8. Protect. When you are doing the dishes or anything that gets your nails soaked, be sure to wear gloves. Water expands the nail bed and causes the nail polish to chip.

9. Oil it. Cuticle oil helps freshen up your manicure and also moisturize your hand.

10. Skin vs. nails. We all use some kind of skin care products. But there are certain kinds that can cause your nail polish to dull and discolor. Some of the products that can affect your polish are sunscreen and mosquito repellants

So these are the tips on having the perfect nails. And you can experience it first-hand when you visit Nailaholics Nail Salon and Spa where you can relax and have beautiful nails afterwards.
