Why have a manicure?


Manicures are beneficial for a multitude of reasons and we all deserve a treat once in a while.

The aim of a manicure is to help improve the appearance and health of the hands by performing different steps.  These steps are
  • -         Soak – Helps to soften the cuticles and clean the hands in preparation of the manicure
  • -         Scrub – Helps to improve the texture of the ski by gently exfoliating away the dryness.
  • -         File – Helps to create a nice shape to the free edge
  • -         Cuticle work – Pushes the cuticles back and removes any excess cuticle to help improve the skin around the nail and prevent hang nails.
  • -         Masque – Used to help deeply hydrate the hand and nails
  • -         Massage – Aids in helping with circulation and can reduce symptoms of arthritis.
  • -         Polish – Applied to help strengthen the nail and improve the general appearance of the nail.
  • -         Cuticle oil – An oil used to help hydrate cuticles and improve skin around the nail bed
  • -         Hand cream – Deeply hydrates to help soften the skin on the hands.
