At the moment, many girls have extended nails. Indeed, by virtue of time, not everyone has time to look after natural nails at home, almost every day, applying a new varnish. And with extended nails, everything is much simpler, because, having done them, you will have perfect beauty for at least three weeks.
But, what is better to choose as a material for building such nails. Gel or acrylic? After all, basically we all hear about helium nails, and about acrylic almost nothing. Many do not even know what it is. In this article we will try to understand what acrylic is and what acrylic nails look like.
Acrylic nail extension technique
The fact is that, in fact, the gel is the same acrylic. The only difference is that the extension technology, as well as some properties of the products are different.
Acrylic is inherently fine powder, which dissolves in a special solution called ethyl methacrylate. This substance is not toxic unlike its predecessor, methyl methacrylate, which is banned worldwide. The fact is that when building acrylic nails, it emits a not very pleasant smell. But at the same time, acrylic is considered more durable than gel.
If you hit an acrylic nail, then your native under acrylic will not receive serious damage. Since acrylic evenly distributes the load throughout the nail plate, part of the force of the impact, taking over.
Unlike gel, acrylic freezes in air when the gel itself is only exposed to ultraviolet rays. The process, building up acrylic nails, occurs according to the standard scheme. First, the cuticle is processed, the nail plate is polished, and the nail smile zone is also adjusted. After the tip is applied, and on top of it, the master applies acrylic powder, in which he dips with a brush previously moistened in the monomer.
Then he makes the shape of the nail, and then polishes the file to perfect condition. At the end of the extension, the master adds special oil and polishes the nail plate.
Acrylic french nails
Basically, many girls continue to make acrylic nails in the form of French manicure. Because they turn out to be quite durable, and in their beauty they are in no way inferior to helium nails.
Also a very big plus in the direction of acrylic nails, this is a quick removal. If you decide to remove the nails, then your master will simply lower them into a special liquid where the acrylic will dissolve. But with helium this will not work. Such nails will be removed only with the help of a special machine with a coarse frieze.
Ombre Acrylic Nails
Acrylic, due to its finely divided composition, fits perfectly on the nail in different colors. The master can calmly make you build in the form of an ombre. When two colors flow smoothly into each other, without a clear merging place.
Matte Acrylic Nails
Gorgeous nails you can achieve by building them with acrylic. They have a thin, neat structure, and their shape is easily adjustable to your taste in the process of building.
Glossy Acrylic Nails
In fact, acrylic nails are very difficult to distinguish from helium nails. After all, there is no significant difference between them, except at some points in the process of building up.
Acrylic Masterpieces
Many masters often go to different competitions where they present their work. Basically, such masterpieces are made of acrylic, because it is then easier to remove. This selection is purely exhibition in nature, because in real life with such nails it will be very, very difficult.
