Nail extensions allow any woman to make her hands beautiful and well-groomed, but sometimes wearing artificial claws becomes boring and the question arises of how to remove gel nails at home. In a beauty salon, this is done by the extension master, carefully removing the material with a carbide cutter, leaving a thin layer of gel. But in order to properly remove nails at home, you need to know not only the properties of materials, but also the structure of the nail plates so as not to harm them.
The nail plate has 100-130 layers. In order to grow nails, it is enough to remove only 3-5 layers. Otherwise, the plates become thinner and their sensitivity increases. Before removing gel nails at home, you need to know this, because sawing through the gel can damage the structure of the plate.
Before removing gel nails at home, you should purchase the necessary tools: files of different grain sizes, gel remover, tips cutter (if possible) and medicated oil. Before that, you need to remove the nail polish from the gel and remove the length with a tips cutter or a coarse grain file.
Before removing the gel from the surface, wash your hands to remove the dust formed from sawing off the length. Taking a nail file of medium grain, you should carefully cut off the gel, without touching the cuticles and periungual ridges in order to avoid injury. A prerequisite that you need to know before removing gel nails at home is that a thin layer of gel must remain on the nail plate, otherwise it will be sensitive to touch.
After all the gel is removed from the nails, hands should be washed with soap and after drying, apply varnish of the desired color. In conclusion, the cuticles should be lubricated with medicated oil and a hand massage should be done. If, after removing the gel, there is a desire to build up again, then it is best to make short gel nails, the jacket on which will look amazing.
Knowing how to remove gel nails at home, you should not neglect the rules of the procedure. Many women are lazy and do not want to spend time cutting off the gel, tearing off the material from the nail plate. In no case should this be done: almost half of the layers of the nail are removed along with it, which leads to its deformation. Often, due to unsuccessful removal of the gel at home, many complain that after building up their nails are badly damaged, forgetting that they themselves removed them incorrectly.
Barbaric removal of the gel can lead not only to uneven surface of the nail plate, but also to onycholysis (nail lagging behind the bed and voids). Such spaces between the nail plate and the bed -an excellent place for the reproduction of pathogenic microflora. Therefore, extended nails should be removed either by a specialist or by their owner herself, strictly following the instructions. The beauty of hands and nails depends only on the careful attitude of the woman herself to them, therefore, extended gel claws should be removed very carefully and carefully.
