Your natural nails can stay healthy even with regular extensions — the key is proper care and removal.

Don’t pick them off

Picking off gel/acrylic is the main cause of thinning and damaged nails. Always remove professionally with proper soaking.

Care for nails & cuticles

  • Apply cuticle oil daily for moisture.
  • Get enough protein & biotin for strong nails.
  • Avoid using your nails as “tools” (prying, opening cans).

After removal

Give extra moisture and, if needed, use a strengthening base for a few days before the next application.
