The Hand Ritual

Somewhere along the way, so many of us were taught that taking time for ourselves is a luxury… something we have to earn… something that comes last after everything and everyone else.

But the truth is, you are already worthy of being cared for.

Worthy of sitting down for a few hours.
Worthy of feeling put together.
Worthy of looking down at your hands and feeling good.

These aren’t just nails.
It’s a moment to pause. To breathe. To be looked after for once.

And you don’t need a reason for that 🤍

“Why doesn’t my BIAB last longer than 3 weeks?” 🤍

There’s usually not just one reason — it’s a combination of a few things working together.

The most common ones we see are:

• Nail prep — if the nail isn’t properly prepped, product won’t adhere as well
• Your natural nail type — some people naturally have more flexible or oily nail beds
• Lifestyle habits — things like water exposure, using your nails as tools, or daily wear and tear

Builder gel is designed to last, but it’s not just about the product — it’s about what’s happening underneath and how your nails are treated day to day ✨

Small changes can make a big difference in how long your nails last 🤍

You are doing more harm than good when you pick off product… 🤍

We understand, it’s tempting. But when you pick off builder gel, you’re not just removing the product… you’re also pulling up layers of your natural nail with it.

This can leave your nails thin, rough, sensitive and more prone to breakage and lifting with your next set.

If your nails are showing signs of lifting first thing you need to do is…

If you can’t get in for an appointment straight away, here’s what to do instead:
• Gently file down any thick or lifted pieces (don’t pull them off)
• Lightly buff any flaky areas to smooth the surface
• Apply cuticle oil daily to help nourish and hydrate your nails.
