Acrylic nails are a type of artificial nails which are more permanent and long lasting than other alternatives. Some people might like to use them for cosmetic purposes or some would want them to repair their damaged fingernails or strengthen them. One can use acrylic nails to cover their entire natural nail or just add it to the tips to extend its length. The process will involve your nail technician to brush a mixture of liquid and powder onto your nail. The mix can be shaped the way you want it and will harden as it is exposed to the air.
Before the application of the acrylic nail, your natural nail should be clean and slightly rough. Thus, you should first remove any previous nail paint remaining on your nails using a nail paint remover. Do not peel the paint off because it will make the nail thinner and damage it. Also, trim and file the nails nicely before applying the acrylic nail as the trimmed nail will act as a more solid and shapely base to the acrylic nail.
