Tips to protect against Infection from artificial nails

Artificial nails can make your fingers look attractive and beautiful, but it is more important to make sure you do proper care of them and keep them free from infections.
The Dermatologist suggests that:

  • Use artificial nails only if your own nails are healthy.
  • Artificial nails may decline nail infections and other problems, possibly leading to nail loss.
  • For avoiding any problem first apply one nail initially to make sure that you don’t have an allergic reaction to it.
  • Wash hands clearly with water and soap, Also use a brush to clean underneath your nails.
  • Then dry your hands and nails completely.
  • Attach again if any artificial nail is loose.
  • Take care of it and remove the nails after some time every two to three months.
  • Always wear gloves when you wash clothes and dishes or while doing some yard work.

Artificial Nails and Preventing Nail Fungus and its cure

Nail fungus is generally called onychomycosis It occurs more frequently in toenails.
When finger nails are overlaid with the plastic of artificial nails, a barrier is made to the normal air flow. Fungus always grows in dark and moist places. Artificial nails can get loosened from the nail they are pasted to and an air hole can be created between both nails, that allows water to get entrapped. This gives a great breeding ground for the nail fungus to grow.
The worst problem with nail fungus infections is that they are really hard to cure and may also repeat again easily.
Nail fungus mostly grows at the tip of the nail where it touches the skin.
Nail fungus can seem as discolored, thickened, ragged or brittle at the ends of the nail.
You will have to wait for few months after treatment for the new healthy nail to grow, especially if the infection occurs again.

The nail fungus is treated by applying a topical cream

If the nail fungus is very small the it can be treated by applying a topical anti fungal cream.
Lamisil cream consists of the alive elements of terbinafine, that fight against nail infections and other skin fungus problems.

    Thank you so much, I did these at home and made them just like yours. (except shorter) I really like this idea it is very creative and awesome and now I don’t have to pay every time I want my nails don. Again, thank you so much for the awesome nail tips. I really like how hard and strong tehy are even though they are made of tape, also I really like how easy they are to take off, you can simply just peel them off.

    Put the tape on your finger so it covers the entire nail and extends past it, so the whole nail looks glossy. Do this over the lower edge of the tape, and it will wear the tape down, making the line less visible.
