Nail Enhancements

 

"Nail Enhancements" are artificial nails made with gel or acrylic products.  Acylics are chemically different from gel.  There are a lot of acrylic products on the market and the average consumer is ill-informed regarding which products are safe and which ones are not.  Also, there are a lot of shops putting acrylics on people, airbrushing a French style or applying a white tip, and then putting a gel topcoat on the nails and telling the customer that they have just purchased "gel" nails.  NOT TRUE!!

Unfortunately, there are a LOT of businesses providing nail services to people who do not use proper sanitation methods AND are still using products that have been outlawed in the state of North Carolina.  Please know that I provide services using TRUE gels and acrylics that are made WITHOUT  METHYL- METHACRYLATE MONOMERS AND ACID-LESS PRIMERS!  These are the chemicals that have been outlawed in this state--and most states-- and studies show they can be permanently damaging to nails and have been shown to cause cancer in some people.  One easy way to know if you are in a salon using MMA products is to note if there is a really strong odor--you know the one I am talking about--those strong odors come from products with MMA in them! 

ALSO:  Please note that the majority of nail damage comes from the TECHNICIAN APPLYING THE NAILS! Sad, but true... That is why I sculpt all my nails instead of gluing a tip and then applying product. Sculptured nails are less damaging to the nails because there is less filing on the natural nails AND they are structurally stronger nails that have less lifting and breakage issues.  Nevertheless, I guarantee all my work so, again:  IF you have any problems with my product or my workmanship, PLEASE do not hesitate to call me!  I am more than happy to fix them because

 IF YOU DON'T LOOK GOOD, I DON'T LOOK GOOD!!!
