Nail fungus is not always noticeable, especially if you color your nails. It is good to know the beginning signs of fungus-thick, brittle nails with a yellow, brown, or a white tinge to the nail. When your nail has fungus, the nail will sometimes crack. Today we will discuss how to prevent that dreaded nail fungus infection.

Candidates for A Fungal Nail Infection

As we get older, fungal infections become more common. As we get older are nails grow slower, blood circulation becomes slower, making the older generation excellent candidates for a fungal nail infection. Men are more likely than women to get fungal nail infections because men walk around barefoot more than women usually. Men will walk around barefoot in locker rooms, swimming pools, public showers, and shower floors more than women. Candidates for fungal nail infections include customers visiting nail salons that are not clean and not licensed.  Your nail salon should only use sterilized single-use tools. Fungus can be transferred on the nail polish brush, so it is advised to bring your own personal bottle of DND gel polish to use.

Proper Manicures and Pedicure Procedures

To Best Toenail Fungus Treatment, it is suggested to keep your nails cut short. Keeping your nails short will help prevent the spread of fungal nail infection. Remember to wash your hands regularly and at least once a day, take your nail brush and scrub underneath your nails. This daily scrubbing will clean out any germs lingering underneath your nails. You should never share your manicure and pedicure tools and always clean your tools after each use. Your cuticles act as a barrier to infection, so you should never cut your cuticles.

You may not have the time to have your nails done in the salon. But the thought of damaging your nails may also keep you from changing your nail polish when it is time to do it. That could even be more intimidating when you need to remove a gel nail polish as it really sticks well on the nails. It makes the nails so strong and bonds thoroughly that it may seem impossible to remove the polish from the nails without ruining them. Don’t worry. We have you covered. This guide will help you do it the right way.

1. Look for a well-ventilated space to do the removal process. It takes some time to completely remove the old nail coatings on your nails. Just imagine how much of the safe nail polish remover combines with the air that you breathe throughout the time you wait for your polish to peel off from your nails? If you want to do the removal process the right way the first time, make sure you do it in a well-ventilated room. You also need to make sure that the workspace is set up properly that you will not risk anything other than your nails getting drenched with the gel nail polish remover.

2. Be gentle with your nail file. First, you need to remove the top layer of the SNS dipping powder. To do that, you need to use a coarse nail file. Gently and slowly file through each nail, making sure that only the outer cover of the nail polish is taken off. The best-suited nail file for this job will be a 150 grit nail file. If used properly, this nail file will remove your gel nail polish effectively.
