Express manicure: what is it and how is it made?

In the fast pace of life, a modern woman always does not have enough time. Despite this, I want to look perfect, and this is possible only when every little thing is perfect. Help in this situation will help express manicure. What is it, what are the differences from salon procedures and what is the essence of the technique itself, you will learn from the material in this article.

Express manicure is a procedure for instant transformation of nails, which is performed with a lack of free time. It takes no more than half an hour. In fact, this is a quick manicure at an affordable price, which can be done in between shopping at the supermarket. It is called island because such a point can be located anywhere in the shopping center, since it does not need any sophisticated equipment and furniture.

Experienced nail service masters perform express manicures. This is what explains the tight deadlines. In addition, quick action tools are used in the work. At the same time, in addition to hygienic manicure, the master manages to apply a coating to all nails. Depending on his experience and speed of work, the design can be classic or French.

Such a service is mobile; it does not require an appointment with a specialist. Basically, the execution technique will be dry (without soaking the nails in a bath of warm water).The master in the course of work will work in rubber gloves and apply materials based on acids, which due to their composition will accelerate the dissolution of dead cells and soften dead skin places.

In general, most of these gels have a moisturizing complex that provides skin care for the fingers. Also in the work, special pencils are used with tips made of plastic or felt, through which it is easier to distribute the emollient around the nail. These tools help the specialist to cut the cuticle easier and faster. Often, upon completion of work, a nourishing cream is applied to the skin.

Scissors or cuticles are rarely used in this technique., and even then only for deburring. The main part of the work is done with files (regular and soft grinder). They give the desired shape, remove dead skin cells around the nail plate, and even out the surface of the nail. In addition, the master uses wet wipes with disinfectant liquid. The disadvantage of this technique is the lack of sanitary conditions. Often at such points the required level of purity is poorly provided.

The essence of the so-called European unedged manicure is a quick hygienic manicure and decorative coating. Since a special gel softens the skin instantly (almost a minute after application), you have to work quickly.

The execution technique consists of several basic stages, which any girl who wants to have well-groomed nails in a short period of time should have an idea about.

First, the master must prepare the workplace by sanitizing it. After that, he is obliged to treat the client's hands with an antiseptic with a wide spectrum of action. You can’t pour a lot of funds on your hands, since it moisturizes your nails, thereby reducing the adhesion of varnish materials. This may be one of the reasons for the low wear of the manicure.

After disinfection of the hands, the master removes the old coating, if any, and then proceeds to modeling the nails. It is armed with a file at first with a larger grain size, and at the final stage it takes a fine one so that the edge does not have notches. The master gives the form, based on the features of the nail plate.

After shaping and aligning the length, the master applies a special gel with softening effect on the nails. This is not a simple emollient oil used to treat cuticle nails. This product is designed specifically for removing cuticles. After a minute or two, the specialist removes the dead skin with a pusher or orange stick.

After the excess skin is removed and the cuticle is sealed, it is necessary to finally get rid of the excess gel. The express material is removed, the nails are treated with an antiseptic. Depending on the chosen coating, the gloss and residues of sawdust are removed. To do this, the specialist should not use a hand, but a special brush that will better remove particles of nail dust.

It is important to understand that in half an hour the master will have time to cover the nails without any design. Therefore, nail decoration is not included in the price. No need to rely on drawing performance - this service is separate. In addition, it can increase the duration of express manicure. The moment is specified before the start of the technique.

Master the technique of express manicure for every woman. At the same time, it will be useful to arm yourself with the recommendations of the nail service masters, thanks to which you can learn to professionally and quickly perform nail design no worse than experienced specialists.

• If the nails are short, it is preferable to process them with a fine-grained file. When the length is sufficient, you can start work with a coarse-grained tool. It is necessary to walk through the nails with a grinder.
• There is no need to apply the product on all fingers - it is enough to process only the cuticle removal sites with it. You can’t rub anything, and even less so, under the nail.
• All quick-action cuticle removers are different. You need to work with them, based on the recommendations of the manufacturer. In this case, there can be no variations with technology. An increase in the duration can cause injury to the skin.
• You can not start working with a gel to remove the cuticle without having done a sensitivity test. It is better to spend a little time on this than to suffer further from allergies and skin burns.
• You need to remove the cuticle product immediately after cleansing the dead skin. Skin is removed not with hands, but with an orange stick.
• It is important to use quality materials in your work. To do this, you can scroll through the reviews of professionals of the nail service. To have a reliable assessment of the masters, it is worth looking at the reviews in several forums.
• In the work, you can use the corrector pencil, inside which is poured liquid to remove varnish. With its help, it is easier to correct the coating and eliminate possible smudges with insufficient cleansing of the cuticle.

With apparent safety, express design is not for everyone. And the reason here may lie in low-quality products that are used by unfortunate unskilled craftsmen. In an attempt to save money, they purchase products with alkalis that corrode the skin. These materials do not have a sparing effect, which neither the client nor the beginner can know. Therefore, in rare cases, already on the second day from the moment of the express design, inflammation may appear at the sites of application of the gel. In addition, the condition of the nail plates may worsen.

Having decided to do a quick manicure on your own, you should purchase a cuticle tool based on fruit acids. If there is a need to use scissors or nippers, the movements are performed not up, but along the cut. This will reduce the chance of skin injury.

Regardless of the type of varnish applied to the surface of the prepared nails, it must be applied in thin layers. Firstly, this eliminates the likelihood of flowing of the coating on the side rollers and cuticles. Secondly, prolong the durability of manicure. You need to take varnishes with good pigmentation for work. You can apply them in one layer, which will reduce the time of the general procedure.

Often such a design is not recommended due to the fact that gel is used in the work. Given that it affects the skin, from time to time she needs rest. It must be remembered that no matter how gentle the impact of a specialized tool, its use should not be permanent. It is especially important to consider that express manicures can not be done often at mobile points. If you do this, it is better at home, where you can provide the best sanitary conditions.
