Beautiful well-groomed nails are a visiting card of a woman. For high-quality manicure, we often turn to masters, in whose arsenal there must be special equipment, which also includes a led lamp for nail extension. Despite the fact that acrylic and gel extensions have already lost their relevance, these lamps are still used by manicure and pedicure masters for shilak, which is very popular today. About what UV lamps can be and how to choose the right model, we'll talk today.
What is the difference between LED nail lamps?
There are several important indicators by which UV lamps differ:
- Power. In order to choose the right lamp for you, pay attention to what materials you will use and how much you are going to work. For beginners working at home and nail artists, suitabledevices of medium power, in which hands are placed one at a time. Such a lamp should have a mirror surface inside for uniform drying of the gel or any other material used.
- Volume. This characteristic implies the possibility of drying two hands at the same time. Naturally, LED-lamps for nails, which have a larger volume, will allow you to work more quickly and are suitable for employees of beauty salons. Such devices are often equipped with a special finger separator, which will help make the procedure more convenient and comfortable for the client.
- Many led nail dryers are equipped with a timer. This function allows you to set the time on the device, during which one or another nail composition should dry. The timer function is equipped with many devices, including compact portable ones.
- The presence of a fan is an important option for a high power led-lamp for nails. The fact is that UV rays, under the influence of which materials such as shilak, gel or acrylic harden, heat the air very much, so clients may experience discomfort during the procedure. It is the fan that will help to avoid overheating of the hands and the appearance of a possible tan.
- The presence and absence of additional functions (fan, timer, mirror surface, finger separator) can significantly affect the cost of a led nail lamp. However, the most important indicator of the price is the power of the device.
UV Lamp Care
This lamp is considered to be low maintenance. However, it is worth following the simple rules for using the device in order to maximize its life, make it comfortable and safe for lovers of beautiful manicure. Here are some recommendations:
- Try to clean the inside and outside of the led nail lamp as often as possible from the sticky layer that forms during use.
- Remember to use antiseptic after each client to avoid the possibility of fungus and other skin diseases.
- Keep the lamp from overheating, try to avoid direct sunlight and table lamp light for a long time.
