Nail strengthening tips

Brittle nails look like a tragedy. Do you know any expert-approved remedies? Strengthening your nails will help make your nails strong, so you will wear a nail cover longer, and your nails will break less. There are several ways to strengthen nails, let's discuss the most effective.

Which types of professional nail strengthening exist?


You can strengthen your nails by using the base coat, sometimes this is enough. When nail master applies the base to the nail, stress zone becomes under reliable protection. The stress zone is located in the middle of the nail and is the most vulnerable part of our nails.

The next most popular method in our salon practice is strengthening with acrylic powder. The powder has a porous structure and helps to build the skeleton of the nail, which prevents the nails from exfoliating and breaking. This strengthener is available both in salon, and in manicure and pedicure home service. Acrylic powder is safe, harmless material and it has no smell at all.

You can also strengthen nails with acrylatic cover. Acrylatic is a gel and acrylic combination. It is more suitable for extra-long nails.
