Nail styling is a true art that requires precision and experience. At Easy Nails, we are experts in this field and want to share our knowledge with you. We invite you to read on!
Improper preparation of the nail plate
One of the most common mistakes made during nail styling is improper preparation for hybrid styling. Remember that the key to a long-lasting and beautiful manicure is proper degreasing and matting of the nail surface. If we don’t do this, the hybrid polish may easily lift or chip. At Easy Nails, we always thoroughly prepare the nails to ensure an excellent final result.
Inaccurate application of the base
The base is the foundation for the entire hybrid styling. If we do not apply it evenly and precisely, it may result in unevenness when applying subsequent layers. In our salon, we place great importance on this stage because we know how crucial it is for the final result.
A layer of color that is too thick
Although the temptation to apply a thick layer of color is strong, it is not a good idea. Too much hybrid polish can cause uneven curing and even cracking after curing in a UV/LED lamp. Therefore, at Easy Nails, we apply color in two thin layers, achieving perfect depth and color saturation without the risk of unwanted effects.
Inaccurate application of polish
Precision in applying hybrid nail polish is essential for both the aesthetics and durability of the style. Unevenly distributed polish can result in visible streaks, gaps, or an unsightly thick layer effect, which detracts from the nails’ elegant appearance. Moreover, flooding the cuticles is a common mistake that not only looks messy but also reduces the manicure’s longevity – the polish may start to lift from the nail plate, leading to chipping and faster deterioration of the style. Additionally, contact of the polish or base with the skin can cause allergic reactions, such as redness or itching, especially with prolonged exposure. Therefore, it is crucial to apply each layer of polish carefully and meticulously, maintaining the appropriate distance from the cuticles – this will allow you to enjoy a beautiful and long-lasting manicure.
Inappropriate curing in the lamp
Curing in a UV/LED lamp is a crucial step in hybrid styling. If not done correctly, the polish may not bond properly, resulting in a short-lived manicure. At Easy Nails, we use professional lamps with the appropriate power and ensure that the nails are properly positioned during exposure.
Skipping the top coat layer
The top layer, or top coat, is an absolute necessity in hybrid nail styling. It protects the color from wear and gives a beautiful, deep shine. Skipping this step will make your manicure look matte and quickly deteriorate. At Easy Nails, we always apply a high-quality top coat to ensure our clients a long-lasting and dazzling effect.
Lack of proper care
Even the best hybrid styling won’t last long without proper care. That’s why at Easy Nails we always advise our clients on how to take care of their nails to enjoy a beautiful manicure for as long as possible. Avoid detergents, hot water, and other factors that can weaken the hybrid polish.
We hope this article helps you avoid the most common mistakes when styling hybrid nails.
