Every woman has a natural desire to decorate herself. One way to do this is piercing. It is difficult to decide to pierce any part of the body. But to make a piercing on the nails is quite easy and without consequences. This trend in manicure can be considered relatively new, it is still gaining popularity.
How do they do it?
Of course, in order to do a nail piercing, it is better to contact the salon. A qualified master will not only perform this procedure correctly, but will also pre-evaluate the condition of your nails, select a design and tell you how to properly care for them.
The essence of the procedure is as follows:
- to begin with, the nail needs to be put in order - to remove the cuticle, to grow the nail or adjust the shape of the existing one;
- a hole is made from the back of the nail plate with a special device with a drill;
- then the edges of the hole are well sanded, the selected coating is applied to the entire nail;
- after the coating has completely hardened, a decoration can be inserted.
Since all manicure tools can be bought on their own (including a piercing drill), you can do it yourself or invite a girlfriend. Under the finger usually put a rug of elastic material. If you have extended nails, the drill can be replaced with a heated thin metal needle or a needle of the desired diameter.
Tips and contraindications
The procedure for nail piercing involves the fulfillment of a number of conditions that must be observed.
- Natural nails for this procedure should be perfectly strong, without damage. Because cracks may appear on them.
- For piercing, extended nails are better than natural ones. They are stronger and easier to adjust.
- When choosing a finger, it is better to incline towards the middle or nameless, and on a non-working hand. So the risk of damage is reduced.
- The more punctures in the nail plate, the easier it is to break it.
- Getting rid of the piercing is simple - you need to cut or remove this part. In extended marigolds, this is an additional advantage, they can be quickly restored, with natural ones - you have to wait until they grow back.
If your activity is associated with active work with your hands, it’s better to remove the piercing for a while, as there is a risk of serious injury.
Types of Jewelry
Piercing is done in order to demonstrate a new jewelry. Moreover, it does not have to be valuable, on the contrary, since there is a risk of losing it, it is worth spending money only in exceptional cases. You can buy such products both in specialized stores and online. At the same time, the material is completely unimportant - it can be metal or plastic. In this case, you can seriously show imagination, for example, by making a couple of jewelry from old jewelry.
Various options are possible.
- Small jewelry - in the form of rings or earrings-carnations. This option is the most practical and, despite its modest size, can be decorated with beads, rhinestones and so on. Rings can be ordinary or with pendants - with different decor and length.
- Chains - connecting fingers in pairs or attached to rings. Such a design will not be left without attention, but without habit causes certain inconvenience.
- Stylized - in the form of letters, numbers, symbols, silhouettes. Often used initials, jewelry in the form of significant objects.
Particular attention should be paid to the method of fixation. It is better if it is a lock that easily opens and allows you to remove the jewelry for a while or quickly change to another.
Design
Of course, even in the design of nails, everything should be harmonious. And the piercing should not look like a foreign object. Thus, you can decorate nails made in almost any design - lunar, French, ombre.
To emphasize the elegance of a solid plain coating, you can choose a pair of discreet decorations. It can be simple rings. For warm shades “under the gold”, for cold shades “under the silver” or with a pronounced shine.
For gentle manicure and decoration, appropriate ones will be required - thin, graceful, unobtrusive. The shine of all kinds of coatings with sparkles, metallic effect, transparent or colored crystals are emphasized.
When choosing a design, you can adhere to the following rule: the more saturated the decor of the coating, the more modest the decoration should be. Overloaded options are only suitable for master competitions or special occasions.
Sometimes for design you can choose a specific theme - with the heroes of comics or cartoons, summer, winter. Then jewelry for piercing should be appropriate. By the way, it is now fashionable to emphasize with a manicure certain events (wedding, childbirth) or holidays (for example, New Year).
