Manicures - A Guide for Beginners


 
Business
Many people are put off of the idea of getting a manicure as they don't know what to expect or what to ask for before they go in to get one. Manicures offer a great way to relax, have healthy and attractive hands and also do something a little different. It is also quite common to receive beauty deals on manicures at the moment. These deals offer people the chance to receive up to 70 per cent off the price of these manicure's from daily deal sites.

What to ask when getting a manicure

Getting a manicure can be a little bit daunting. However the best thing to do when getting a manicure the first time is to get it done in a salon, or a spa. This means you will be pampered all the more and will find it easy to ask questions in the relaxing environment provided by the surroundings and staff. These salons are often available with beauty deals.

To Start

The first thing that usually happens is that the manicurist will begin by removing all the old polish and clean your hands. Nail technicians will then round and file your nails, you can choose to have them tipped in a rounded or squared fashion - they will ask you which is your preference. People who have not received a manicure before should ask the advice of the manicurist who will offer the best solution.

Your cuticles, which are the pieces of skin below your nails will be next. It is often the case that the therapist will apply a cream to these and push them down from the nail. In some cases they can be cut, however this is not often advised. If you wish you can have your hand soaking as the other is being treated. This ensures the skin is at its softest before treatment.

Massage

Manicurists will often then offer a hand massage to the person .This is generally through the use of reflexology and will usually completely relax your hand, which is often the most tense part of your body. Enjoy this part as it can be fantastic.

Polish can throw up some tough choices. There is often a wide ranging selection and many people often just choose the French manicure in this case. This is designed to look as natural as possible and there is often only the slightest hint of any tint in the polish. Your glossy nails look clear, but also amazing and there is a real sense of style with this sort of polish. Shades range from clear to light pink and most look quite natural. If you wish you can also get a decoration on your nail, though this is often an extra cost.

Polish

After the polish is applied, you will place your hands under a UV light to dry and harden the coating. This is usually a short procedure and takes in and around five minutes. It nearly dries nails 100 per cent, however you should ensure to keep an eye on nails for a while afterwards as they can often be still a little bit brittle. Something newbies don't often abide by. Chipped nails are a disappointment and there is nothing as bad after a treatment - a little like scraping a new car after it is removed from the garage. Nail salons however provide quick fixes for these problems if targeted in time, so call your salon and ask them to help you with the issue at hand.

Types of Manicures and Beauty Deals

There are also a number of different kinds of manicures. The basic manicure can be done at any nail salon. This is a basic shaping of the nails, pushing back of the cuticles and general looking after of the hands.

The French manicure is as we discussed above, however there is an alternative called the American manicure. This uses similar products to the French manicure where the tips are painted white instead of left natural like with the French manicure. Finally the paraffin manicure uses herbal wax treatment to polish nails. Hands are dried inside mitts instead of under UV lighting but the end result is the same. Ask about whichever you require with your beauty deal and see if you can be accommodated.
