Nail Care - Nail Care

Nail care services in a salon generally focus on the maintenance and enhancement of the nails and cuticles of both hands and feet. These services are provided by professional manicurists or nail technicians. Here are some common nail care services:

1. Manicure: This is a cosmetic beauty treatment for the fingernails and hands. It usually includes shaping and filing of the nails, treatment of the cuticles, a hand massage, and application of nail polish.
2. Pedicure: Similar to a manicure but for the feet and toenails. It can also include a foot soak and exfoliation to remove dead skin cells.
3. Nail Extensions/Acrylics: These involve applying an artificial nail to the end of the natural nail to add length or strength. They are often painted or designed in a decorative manner.
4. Gel Nails: This is a type of nail treatment where a nail-colored gel is applied to the nails and then hardened under UV light. These provide a glossier and more durable alternative to regular nail polish.
5. Nail Art: This service involves painting or embellishing the nails in decorative ways. It can range from simple designs to complex artwork.
6. Nail Repair: If a nail is broken or damaged, some salons offer repair services.
7. Cuticle Treatment: This involves softening, pushing back, and/or removing the cuticles to improve the appearance of the nails.
8. Paraffin Wax Treatment: A treatment often added on to a manicure or pedicure, where hands or feet are dipped into warmed paraffin wax to moisturize the skin.
