When it comes to Gel Nail Polish, Leave it to the Pros

As the popularity of gel manicures continues to rise, we are seeing more and more fantastic nail designs. However, if we have one word of caution it is this: leave it to the professionals. Unlike other nail jobs, a gel manicure is a procedure that requires the skill and proper tools that only a professionally certified salon like Paralela Beauty has. Applying the gel nail polish is the crucial first step in achieving the perfect gel manicure. However, it is not a simple procedure and if applied incorrectly it can damage the nail bed for a long time. In addition, the materials and polish required for the nail polish stage need to be of the highest possible standard. Otherwise you run the risk of causing additional damage to your nail bed. At Paralela Beauty you can rest assured knowing that the materials and equipment that we use are of the highest possible standard.

How are UV Gel Nails Applied?

At Paralela Beauty we receive a lot of questions from our customers regarding the process of applying UV gel nails. In brief, it a straightforward process but one with many layers to it! Following the initial thinning of the nail and the pushing back of the cuticles, any nail dust is removed before additional layers of foundation are applied. This procedure is done to prepare the nails for the gel nail polish stage and is accompanied by the heating of the nails under a special UV lamp. This process is repeated after the color and style is chosen before a second layer of gel is added prior to the final heating under the UV light. This stage is completed by the application of an eco-friendly oil that helps soothe any discomfort to the nails and cuticles.

Points to Consider With Gel Manicures

At Paralela Beauty we take great pride in being able to offer an honest and upfront service to all of our customers. That is why we feel the need to highlight some of the points to consider if you’re thinking about a gel manicure.

Firstly, excessive exposure to UV lamp can damage nail cuticles and the skin surrounding the nail. In addition, if you have sensitive nails or skin, then the thinning of the nail can weaken your nail’s integrity. Finally, repeated application of gel manicures without sufficient breaks in between can result in lasting damage to your nail bed.
