Many people love getting acrylic nails added to their fingertips because they love the way that they look afterwards. With acrylic nails, Connerton residents can have a look that they never thought would be possible such as longer fingernails that would normally break by the time someone got their fingernails to that length. While acrylic nails can be a great option for many individuals, they are not the only option that is available to choose from. There are many alternatives to acrylic nails that many people might not know they exist if they always get the same nails done by a trusted nail tech. Here are some other ways that people change the way that their nails look.
Nail Extensions with Gel Nails
If someone is looking to try other nail options but have only ever tried acrylic nails, Connerton residents should consider trying out gel nails first. Many of the same looks and designs that can be achieved with acrylic nails can also be done on gel nails. In order for gel nails to be sturdy and functional, they first have to be dried under an LED light. Not only do gel nails look and feel very similar, but they also last just as long as acrylic nails. Typically, someone will take about three weeks before they would have to go touch up their nails.
Dip Powder Nails
While many individuals desire to have long and carefully shaped fingernails, there is a large portion of people who do not feel comfortable with fake nails. One option for people who want to work with their natural nails would be to used dip powder nails instead of acrylic nails. Connerton residents should know that there is no gel or paint coat involved in the process, so there is no need to dry them under a UV or LED light. Once the powder is applied to the nails, a sealant or topcoat is applied to keep that look lasting long.
