HIINC International Nail Care Certification
Your nails deserveto be understood
Nail care is more than making nails look good.A certified nail care specialist looks at your nail condition first, then decides how to shape and care for your nails.
Nail art and nail care: what is the difference?
Nail art
Focuses on shape and colour: nail art, gel and extensions that make nails look good.
Nail care
Starts with your nail condition: the thickness of the nail plate, its shape, and the cuticles and skin around it. The care plan follows from there, keeping nails stable and easy to look after.
The two go together. Many certified nail care specialists also do nail art. The difference is that they look closely at your nails before they start.
Do any of these sound familiar?
Thin, soft nails that break easily
Nails split or peel as soon as they grow out.
Uneven nail shape
After years of nail biting or picking at cuticles, nails grow irregularly.
Dry cuticles and hangnails
The skin around the nails cracks and lifts easily.
Damage after removal
After gel or extensions, the nail plate is thinner and shows white marks.
A certified nail care specialist can take a look first, so you can decide how to care for your nails.
If you have pain, swelling, pus or obvious discolouration, please see a doctor first.
