We’re all used to Buff and Polish our nails at home.
Especially when they are weaker and the tips are not equal and organized and sticks
in clothes with each move you make, But did you know that for polishing and
buffing your nails, there are some basics you have to follow otherwise you will
make your nails weaker and brittle?
Here are some tips and Steps you should follow while polishing and buffing our nails:
1-
Do not try to polish or
buff your nails unless it’s completely dry, because our nails are usually weaker
so it’s very easily broken or crackle.
2-
Trim your long nails, so
it’s a little bit longer than the actual length you want to get to eventually.
Make sure the trimming is at the sides of the nail and not in the middle.
3-
If there is any nail polish
isn’t removed yet, leave it on your nails till you polish and buff them,
because it gives your nails extra strength and protect it from brittle.
4-
Use a wooden file with a
medium smooth touch and stay away from the rough files , since it’s very rough
on your nails and will make them very weak.
5-
The file have to make a 45
degree angle with the lower surface of the nail instead of the common mistake being perpendicular on it
.
6-
When you polish and buff
your nails, the file has to move smoothly in one direction from one of the
sides to the middle which means when you polish the right side of the nail the
direction of the file from the right to the middle then polish it the other
side from the left to the middle. Avoid polishing and buffing your nails in a
circular direction and don’t ever start polishing from the middle of your
nails.
7-
Avoid Polishing and Buffing
your nails too close to your skin, so you don’t infect that area or make the
side of your nail much weaker.
8-
After you finish polishing
and buffing your nails in the shape you want ( circular, squared, oval or
tapered) get rid of the left soft layer
of the nail by polishing the pluses in a direction from the higher to the
bottom with observing that the file is not perpendicular on the nail but
sloping from the top of your hand side.
9-
When you’re done from all
the steps, it’s preferred washing your hands and applying some Jojoba oil if
possible to moisturize your nails since it’s the only thing that the nails
could absorb.
