Manicure Services Business

During a manicure treatment, the nails, the cuticles and the skin on the hands and up to the elbow is treated. Firstly the nails are filed in to shape. This is followed by an application of a cuticle cream and the hands are then soaked to soften the cuticles. A cuticle remover is then applied and the cuticles are gently pushed back and away from the nail plate. Any excess skin is taken away with cuticle nippers. A hand and forearm massage is then performed. During deluxe treatments heated mittens or paraffin wax is then applied to soften and nourish the hands. The nails are then filed over and cleaned and are ready for polish, a base coat, two coats of color and a protective top coat.
