Hello December Yessssss 🙌🏾 the last one so be the best one to remember!

Cyber Monday deal of the week! $30 express gel mani w/freestyle designs $45 call to schedule your appointment. “Go Waterless”!

When you soak your fingers in water, you nail expands, so if you put polish on after that, before they've started to shrink back to their regular size, the polish will be ready to chip the moment you touch it to something." Basically, "you'll have a longer-lasting manicure if you skip water."

Why then does anyone use water? "It softens dry cuticles and makes them easier to cut," but it's unnecessary if the technician knows how to use cuticle remover and cuticle oil in the proper manner. "So many salons put on cuticle oil before pushing it back—and that's like putting on a face oil and hoping it'll exfoliate." Instead, you should apply remover, softly push back the skin and wipe the nail clean.

Then, if you have any skin sticking up, you can carefully trim just that piece. "What you never want to do is cut all the way around.

"Think of it like this: A superblunt haircut that's perfect and even isn't going to be six weeks later because hair grows back differently. On a microlevel, that happens with your cuticle. It grows back unevenly and it's why they're ragged and peeling five days later."

The verdict is in: no water, no cutting, no problem.
