It can be difficult for novice manicure masters to create drawings on nails on their own, since modern design is not limited to patterns and allows you to embody interesting and stylish ideas using improvised means. To master the technique, you need to constantly train, study photos of finished works of masters and develop your imagination.

General guidelines for beginners

Before starting a manicure, you need to study its types:

Edged (classic)... It is characterized by the fact that the cuticle is removed before the manicure. This option is suitable for owners of coarse and thick cuticles. Among the advantages of a trim manicure are: quick and easy execution, a minimum of tools is needed, even the most neglected nails are tidied up. The main disadvantage of this technique is its high injury rate. Without proper experience in manicure, it is possible to damage the skin, cut off excess cuticles and infect an infection.
Unedged... This option eliminates the use of sharp and cutting tools, which reduces the risk of injury. To remove the cuticle, special products based on lactic and fruit acids are used. Unedged manicure is performed faster than a classic one, but is not suitable for owners of sensitive skin prone to allergic reactions.

Technique for performing a trim manicure:

The key to a neat manicure lies in getting the same shape and length. Therefore, the first step is to shape the future shape. Scissors, wire cutters and nail file are suitable as tools.
Hand bath. This step is the main base of a trim manicure. To make it easier to remove the cuticle, it must first be softened in water. You can add sea salt, soap or essential oils to the bath. It is necessary to process each finger within 5 minutes.
Use a pusher or an orange stick to push back the cuticle. This should be done carefully so as not to harm the nail plate. It is not recommended to place the instrument at a large angle; ideally, the stick should lie on the nail.
Cuticle removal takes place with the help of rounded scissors or nippers, along the entire perimeter of the nail.
After removing the cuticle, experts recommend applying oil to the nails.

Technique for unedged manicure:

The nails are given the desired shape with a file. If the nail plate is uneven, it should be polished with a buff.
A special gel is applied to the cuticle. It softens the skin in 2-3 minutes.
Remove the gel with a napkin. Then the cuticle is removed with a wooden stick, pushing it back.
Finally, a cream is applied to the nail plate to moisturize and nourish the skin.

One of the most difficult tasks for novice craftsmen is choosing a color.

Experts identify a number of basic shades that the master should first of all have:

white (often used for a jacket or moon manicure);
the black;
red;
burgundy;
pink (preferably warm and cold shade);
beige;
silver or gold sequins.
