Acrylic nails aren't likely to harm your natural nails but can sometimes cause problems, such as an infection.
If an acrylic nail
is damaged or as your natural nails grow, a gap can develop between the acrylic
nail and your natural nail. This gap provides a moist, warm environment in
which a nail infection can flourish. A nail contamination may additionally
happen if acrylic nails are too long or unbending, or the nails are connected
with unsanitary devices. It's additionally conceivable to have a hypersensitive
response to segments of acrylic nails or their glues. Indications of a nail
disease incorporate redness, swelling and discharge.
If you choose to have acrylic nails applied in a salon, take steps to minimize the risks:
·
Stick to salons that display a current state license, and work only with
technicians also licensed by the state board.
·
Make sure your nail technician properly sterilizes all tools used during
your treatment and washes his or her hands between customers.
·
Request a new nail file — or consider bringing your own — since nail
files can't be sterilized.
·
Return to the salon every two to three weeks for maintenance.
If you apply
acrylic nails at home, follow the safety precautions printed on the package.
Work in a well-ventilated area, and protect the skin around your nails from the
chemicals used during the application process.
Consider evacuating your acrylic nails and letting
your regular nails inhale each a few months. In the event that you think a nail
disease, counsel a dermatologist for an assessment.
