For a nail technician, a good set of nail extensions requires that proper preparation is carried out. The most common cause of client complaints comes from poor preparation of the nail plate, resulting in lifting and infection.
The nail plate must be completely free of dirt, grime, oil, and bacteria. If not, enhancements will lift, bacterial infections will grow and surrounding tissue may be damaged. To remove dirt, oil and bacteria, wipe the nails with a nail dehydrater/cleanser.
Cuticles must be removed from the nail plate or enhancements will lift due to failure of the product bonding with the nail plate. To remove dead cuticle tissue, use a double ended pusher.
