Selection Tips
To quickly determine whether this or that device is suitable for your work, answer a few questions.
For what purposes do you need the purchased device?
Think about whether you will really start doing a pedicure with this device.
The thing is that manicure devices cost much less than manicure and pedicure devices.
Do you want to buy devices for professional activities or to work from home?
If you are choosing a device for the home, it is better to look at models that have low power - about 1500-5000 engine revolutions per minute. These devices are perfect for craftsmen who are just learning how to use the device. They do not weigh very much, are mobile and will not take up much space in the apartment.
For a beauty salon, it is better to choose a professional device, which will save time on performing manipulations without compromising quality (by the way, the more power the device has, the longer it can work without overheating). The number of revolutions per minute can vary from 30 to 40 thousand revolutions.
What do you intend to do with the device?
If you carry out professional activities in a salon and want to provide a full range of services, you should take a closer look at multifunctional types of equipment that allow you to perform a large list of various procedures - from correcting marigolds to a care pedicure.
Pay special attention to those device models that have already earned positive customer reviews. Machines, which are more convenient to use at home, are much cheaper.
Will you offer your services to the exit?
Perhaps you are accustomed to processing nails not only in a salon, but also at home with your regular customers. If yes, then it is best for you to opt for models that are complemented by a stylish suitcase or a convenient carrying bag, which will keep your device intact for a long time. Always remember that you will have to carry the device, constantly transport it, and therefore you should not buy too bulky equipment.
How long would you like to work with your device?
Check whether the purchased device has high-quality protection against overheating, whether the device will turn on without the presence of a working tool in it, or whether the handle of the device can inadvertently turn on. Functions of this kind will guarantee not only a long service life of the machine, but also complete safety during operation.
Check if the purchased device has a warranty - however, it must be provided for at least one year. Otherwise, know that you are clearly dealing with not very high-quality equipment.
Be sure to find out if the device has service after the expiration of the warranty period - and then, if it breaks down after the expiration date, you will know exactly where you need to go for repair.
Home use
Hardware manicure performed at home must be done according to certain rules.
- First you need to prepare the nail plate - remove the old varnish.
- Using a special stick, the cuticle must be pushed aside the skin lateral ridges of the finger.
- For work, a nozzle is selected that has an average rigidity. At low speed, you can easily remove the rough epidermis from the sides and from the rollers.
- If there are calluses on the hands, then they can be removed using the most gentle cutter.
- The cuticle is removed. To do this, you need to use a special round cutter, which is similar to the tip of a regular pen.
- Now you can start polishing the marigold. Special care must be taken here. If you press too hard on the cutter while sanding, ugly grooves may appear on the nail. This means that instead of a beautiful and shiny marigold, as a result, you can see an unexpected and unpleasant effect.
- Hand treatment is completed with a special compound that has a disinfecting effect. This is extremely important when you are just learning how to use the device, as a small wound sometimes leads to quite serious inflammation and pain.
- After processing, gently smear your hands with any moisturizing cream.
Here are some of the precautions to take when treating your nails.
- Before starting the procedure, you should make sure that the device is in good working order, that all elements of the device are in full working order. Before starting up the device, make sure that the cutter bits used are well and correctly installed.
- It is possible to carry out hardware manicure only on dry hands.
- The cutters should be kept at an angle of 45 degrees during operation. Movements must be made from the very center of the nail to its edges.
- At first, it is worth choosing low revolutions, gradually increasing the rotational speed of the cutter. When you perfectly learn to master the device itself and the technique of performing a manicure, then all the manipulations will take you only a few minutes.
