Does getting nail extensions damage your nails??

In order for nail extension products to be introduced and remain on the market, they must (just like medications) have a number of approvals and certifications from organizations that guarantee (through their authority) that they are safe for human health.

Thanks to advocates of the gel method, acrylics have been saddled with unfounded claims about their harmfulness—claims that actually pertain to products from the 1960s.At that time, the acrylics in common use were completely different and contained highly harmful chemical compounds.In the 1970s, the use of harmful methyl-based acrylic liquids was banned and replaced with ethyl-based ones.These new e-liquids have a fairly intense, pungent odor, but they have been approved by the most prestigious American Commission for.CIRB Cosmetic Ingredients Listed as Safe for Use on Natural Nails.Furthermore, studies conducted by Polish sanitary and epidemiological stations rule out the presence of volatile toxic substances in the air during acrylic nail treatments..- Source: "Acrylic Nails: Safe and Elegant," by Antoni Bilons, *Nails* No. 22 (3/2005).

Any unnatural intervention in the body has an impact on its health.However, modern nail extension methods can be compared to hair coloring or bleaching.The tip is applied only to the tip (not the entire length) of the nail using a special (non-toxic) adhesive.Acrylic/gel is applied to the top (hardened, dead) layer of the nail.

It is also important to remember that removing artificial nails without professional assistance causes much more damage to the nail plate than having them applied or refilled regularly and professionally..

Another mistake sometimes made by clients with problematic (weak, brittle, neglected) nails is expecting that, after removing their artificial nails, their natural nail plate will suddenly and miraculously come back to life (and become strong, durable, and beautiful).
