How to Maintain Healthy Nails While Using Gel Polish

As a nail technician, it’s important to guide your clients on how to maintain healthy nails while using gel polish. While gel polish from Dolla Nails Pro is durable and long-lasting, proper care is necessary to keep nails in top condition. Here are some tips for maintaining healthy nails while using gel polish:

1. Prepping the Nails: Before applying gel polish, ensure the nails are clean and free of oils and moisture. Proper prepping helps the gel adhere better and lasts longer.

2. Avoid Over-Buffing: Buffing the nails is important for gel application, but over-buffing can weaken the natural nail. Ensure that the buffing is gentle and not too aggressive.

3. Use a Nourishing Cuticle Oil: Apply cuticle oil regularly to keep the nails and surrounding skin hydrated. Dry nails are more prone to breaking, so proper hydration is essential.

4. Don’t Pick or Peel Off Gel Polish: Never pick or peel off gel polish, as it can damage the natural nail underneath. If the gel polish starts to chip, remove it with the proper gel remover.

5. Give Nails a Break: While gel polish can last up to 3 weeks, give your clients a break in between applications. This allows the natural nails to breathe and recover.

By following these tips and using Dolla Nails Pro Gel Polish, your clients can enjoy beautiful, healthy nails for years to come.
