Press on Nails

 

With the explosive popularity of the press on nails market, more and more people choose to wear it to show off their beautiful fingers. However, some people also have doubts about this emerging product. Will press on nails cause damage to our own real nails? Today we will mainly discuss this issue.

 

 

Pros of Press on Nails

 

 

Before we discuss whether press on nails damages nails, let's first discuss the benefits of press on nails compared to going to a nail salon.

Low price

Everyone knows that the price of a manicure at a nail salon is very high, and pressed nails are popular because of their low price.

Wear or remove at any time

Going to a nail salon to get a manicure requires long-term wear, and if you encounter a special occasion, you need to spend time and money to remove it. Press-on nails are different, they can be worn or removed anytime and anywhere, which is very convenient.

Various styles

Whether it is daily wear or attending special occasions such as weddings, dinner parties, etc., press-on nails have a variety of different styles to choose from.

 

 

Cons of Press on Nails

 

 

Everything has two sides. Let's discuss what damage long-term wearing of press-on nails can cause to real nails.

  • If the press-on nails are not removed properly, the glue connecting the press-on nails and the nails may damage the nails. If they are pressed too tightly when worn, it may easily cause dents on the surface of the nails when removed.
  • If you press your press-on nails too long during daily wear and they get caught on clothing or other items, your nail tips will be torn, which may cause damage to your nails.
  • Glue can also cause some damage to nails, but the damage is much less than going to a nail salon to get a manicure or remove a manicure. Whether it is a manicure or a manicure removal, the nail salon will first use a machine to polish your nails, which in itself will cause damage to the nails. However, the viscosity of glue will gradually weaken after being worn for a certain period of time, and the damage to the nails is very small.

 

 

Precautions for Press-on Nails

 

 

  • When wearing press-on nails, do not press too hard to avoid dents on your nails.
  • When choosing glue, try to choose jelly glue to minimize the damage to the nails.
  • Choose the length of the press-on nails according to the occasion. If you wear it daily, try to choose a simple medium-short style to avoid the press-on nails being too long or the accessories on the nail tips getting caught on clothes and causing damage to the nails.
  • Do not wear press-on nails for a long time (more than two weeks). After wearing press-on nails for a long time, the adhesiveness of the glue or jelly glue will slowly decompose, causing the press-on nails to curl up, which is easy to breed various microorganisms and bacteria.

 

 

Conclusion

 

 

Everything is a double-edged sword, including press-on nails. But compared to the damage to nails caused by going to a nail salon, the damage caused by press-on nails is almost negligible. However, in order to ensure the health of your nails, you still need to follow the above precautions to keep your nails beautiful while ensuring that your real nails are not damaged.
