You’ve just had your nail infills at Honeys, and they’re looking flawless! To keep them strong, shiny, and beautiful for as long as possible, a little care between appointments can make all the difference. Here are five expert tips to help your nails stay perfect until your next visit.
Healthy nails start with nourished cuticles. Apply cuticle oil daily to prevent dryness, cracking, and lifting. Keeping your cuticles soft also helps your infills last longer by maintaining flexibility in your natural nails.
💡 Top tip: Massage cuticle oil into your nails before bed to lock in hydration overnight.
Harsh chemicals and excessive water exposure can weaken your nails and cause lifting. Always wear rubber gloves when washing up, cleaning, or using any products that contain bleach, acetone, or harsh detergents.
💡 Top tip: If your hands do get wet for long periods, dry them thoroughly and reapply cuticle oil or hand cream.
Your nails may look strong, but they aren’t tools! Avoid using them to open cans, scrape off labels, or pick at objects, as this can cause lifting, cracks, or breakages. Treat them with care to maintain their flawless finish.
💡 Top tip: Keep a small keyring or tool handy for opening things instead of using your nails.
To keep your nails looking seamless and strong, regular infill appointments are essential. Most clients find that visiting every 2-3 weeks helps maintain their nails without damage or excessive regrowth.
💡 Top tip: Rebooking your next infill appointment before you leave the salon ensures you never go too long between treatments.
Tempted to pick at lifting gel? Don’t! Peeling or biting at your nails can cause damage to your natural nails and lead to weak, uneven growth. If you notice any lifting or issues, contact the salon for advice rather than trying to fix it yourself.
💡 Top tip: If a nail does start lifting, resist the urge to pull it off—apply a small amount of cuticle oil and book a quick fix appointment instead.
Taking care of your nails between appointments means they’ll stay beautiful, strong, and long-lasting. Follow these simple tips, and you’ll enjoy perfect nails right up until your next visit to Honeys.
