In runs the nail tech... yep licensed and everything... I have read this whole thread and have some information to share... but I think I need to be awake more to do so... For those of you having issues with dry and cracking hands try some of the same product that nursing women use on their nipples... I know, I know... but is is made from lanolin and is safe and it will absorbed into the nail bed and cuticle keeping them moisturized, thus helping to prevent cracking and peeling of the natural nail... As for nails, acrylic, gel, wraps and overlays there are so many products out there today it will make you head spin... Polishes, now that is a whole different creature in its self... then we could totally get into the new gel polishes... everyone is jumping on that band wagon... Okay more later going to have my ribs x-rayed... Happy nailing everyone!
