Nail artist Spifster Sutton shares the dos and don'ts of caring for your nails at home.
By now, your nails might be growing out, chipped or even cracked. You might be tempted to leave them as is ― but you shouldn’t. Sutton explained there are more than a few reasons to take them off.
“The number-one reason is to stop any kind of fungus from building under the nail,” she said. “You’re home, cleaning, washing hands and dishes at an alarming rate. If you have any lifting of the nail, water can get under there and can build fungus, then you’ll have a whole other issue. It’s better to keep them off than to risk it. Also, the weight of the product will cause pain to your nails — they could snap or break off in all different ways.”“To remove, you need 100% acetone,” Sutton said.
You can either soak your nails straight in the acetone in a bowl, or you can soak cotton balls in the acetone, and wrap them around your nails with strips of aluminum foil. For the former, you’ll need a small glass bowl that you can fill with the acetone, one that’s deep enough to cover your nails and preferably one that won’t be used for food. For the latter, you’ll need cotton balls and strips of foil. “Using foil takes a bit of coordination, so [if that’s too hard] you can just put your nails in a glass bowl ― not plastic ― and soak anywhere from 20 minutes to an hour.”,” to file the nail color down before soaking .
Using an object instead of properly soaking your nails can cause damage and even infection. “You could break a nail, expose your flesh, get an infection in the very worst case,” she said. “You don’t want to have that ― you’re trying to maintain the health of your nails.”
