Why You Should Consider Gel Nails

If you have short nails and struggle to grow them, you may have investigated the various types of false nails available at salons. Because your hands are on show all day, you want long, attractive nails. Natural-looking gel nails may be just what you need. They can give you longer nails, and protect your natural nails long enough for them to grow out.

Made from a pre-mix of polymer and monomer gel, gel nails are applied to the nail and then cured in one of several ways. Light-cured gels are cured under UV lights, no-light gels are cured by brushing or spraying a gel activator onto the gel nail – a quicker process than sitting with your hands under UV lights. Gel nails are quicker to apply than acrylic nails, as there is less filling. The mixture is odourless, making it a more pleasant process for the technician and yourself.

Gel nails look and feel more natural than acrylic nails because they are thin, clear and flexible. They don’t go yellow, and they do not lift as easily as acrylic nails do, Because they are glossier than other false nails, gel nails look great even without the benefit of polish – which can be applied to the gel nails as well. You can have a French manicure or nail art applied to gel nails as well.

If your own nails don’t seem to grow, or keep their shape, gel nails can be applied without any fear of damaging your natural nails. You can choose the length you prefer, and have beautiful long nails with little fuss. Gel nails are best applied in a salon, as the application and fixing process is difficult to do on your own.

You can use gel nails to enhance your natural nails until they grow. Although they are said to last for less time than acrylic nails and may be a little more pricey, the lack of nail damage makes up for it. Acrylic nails can do so much damage to your natural nails that you cannot grow them out and find that you have to repeatedly apply acrylic nails to hide your damaged ones. Gel nails are more of an enhancement than a replacement for your real nails, unlike other types of false nails.

Manicured, elegant nails are the finishing touch to a polished image. They are on show all day, and it is important that they look as good as the rest of you. If growing your own nails is proving to be a struggle, you should try the natural-looking gel nails now available in salons. They protect weak nails so that they can grow naturally while protecting them from damage and breakage. Give your nails a chance, with super natural-looking gel nails.
