The Nail Care Process at Nails with Louisa

When you visit Nails with Louisa, you can expect more than just a quick nail treatment. We believe in providing an experience that is as relaxing as it is effective. Here’s what you can expect during your visit:

Every appointment begins with a thorough consultation. Louisa takes the time to understand your preferences, whether you're looking for a minimalist design or something bold and colorful. During the consultation, you'll also receive advice on the best treatments for your nails' health.

Nail Preparation

Once the consultation is complete, the nail preparation process begins. This step is crucial for ensuring that the final result is flawless. Your nails will be cleaned, shaped, and gently buffed to create the perfect canvas for the next steps.

Depending on the service you've chosen, Louisa will apply the necessary products with precision and care. Whether it’s a gel polish or acrylic extension, she ensures each layer is smooth and even, providing a lasting, professional finish.

Why Nail Health Matters

At Nails with Louisa, we are passionate about maintaining the health of your nails. We believe that beautiful nails start with strong, healthy foundations. That’s why we provide guidance on how to take care of your nails between appointments.

One of the most important factors in maintaining nail health is hydration. Dry nails are more prone to breakage and damage, which is why we recommend using a good-quality cuticle oil and hand cream regularly. Additionally, taking breaks between gel manicures and acrylic nails can help your natural nails recover and stay strong.

Tips for Prolonging Your Manicure

To ensure your manicure lasts as long as possible, it's essential to follow a few simple aftercare tips:

1. Wear Gloves: When doing household chores, especially those involving harsh chemicals or water, wearing gloves can prevent damage to your manicure.
2. Avoid Picking: If you notice a chip or a lift in your gel or acrylic nails, resist the urge to pick at it. Instead, book an appointment with us to have it fixed.
3. Moisturize Regularly: Keep your hands and cuticles moisturized to prevent dryness and cracking, which can affect the longevity of your manicure.

By following these tips, you can keep your nails looking fresh and beautiful between visits.

The Importance of a Clean and Safe Environment

When it comes to nail care, safety and cleanliness are paramount. At Nails with Louisa, we take hygiene seriously. Our tools are sterilized after every use, and we adhere to strict sanitation protocols to ensure a safe and clean environment for our clients.

We also prioritize the safety of the products we use. Many nail products on the market contain harsh chemicals that can weaken your nails over time. That’s why we use high-quality, non-toxic products that are free from harmful substances like formaldehyde and toluene. This not only helps maintain the health of your nails but also ensures a pleasant experience without the strong chemical odors often associated with nail salons.
