How to care for nails after a hybrid manicure?
Poor nail condition can be caused by excessive nail filing, using sharp tools, or removing cuticles too deeply. Oils (such as argan or castor), creams, or specialised conditioners can help in the regeneration process. Use them systematically, and you will quickly see the first results. Avoid products with formaldehyde to prevent drying out the nails.
Don't wear "bare nails"
Consistent use of hybrid polishes can dry out the nails and block air access, which promotes brittleness and splitting. Therefore, it is sometimes worth taking a break from hybrid manicures.
Beautiful nails are primarily healthy and strong nail plates. Applying a conditioner as a protective shield during a break from hybrid manicures. "Bare nails" after removing hybrids is not a good choice. Weakened nails are more prone to damage. Proper conditioner will seal the nail surface, strengthen it, and add shine. It also prepares nails for future styling. During this time, remember, for example, to wear gloves when cleaning. This way, you will avoid contact with detergents.
