We all have different needs when it comes to our nails. But nding a good nail tech that has your nails in their best interest can often be very hard. Follow these easy tips to ensure you nd the best tech for you.

1 THE RESEARCH

Make sure that the salon is reputable. If you’ve never used the salon before, research them before booking an appointmen­t. Read reviews to see how other customers have rated them. This will also give you an indication of what to expect.

2 THE PORTFOLIO

Check out their social media. Instagram allows us to see a visual diary. This will give you an idea of the technician’s work. By seeing examples of their work, you’ll be able to gauge the variety of colours and techniques that are available.

3 THE SERVICES

Every nail tech’s skills should be topnotch. As the client, your nails should be led and shaped to your request and satisfacti­on. Your nail artist should be creative when it comes to the design of your nails. This will give you a good idea of the level of service and expertise they have to offer,ƒ

4 THE QUALITY

Check that your nails are properly sealed with a highqualit­y topcoat. This ensures that your edges are sealed to provide longevity. Aftercare is just as important as the nail applicatio­n itself. Your nail artist should advise on how to take proper care of your nails to guarantee a longlastin­g effect.
