They may not be as common as Liquid and Powder or Gel enhance- ments, but Natural Nail Wraps using Silk or Fibreglass should not be overlooked.
Originally conceived to act as a splint to support breakages in the natural nail, wrapped nails are an ideal solution for clients looking for that middle ground between natural nails and enhancements, as they offer a thinner and more lightweight alternative to their acrylic and gel counterparts.
In wrap-tures
One of the main advantages of wrap nails is that virtually any type of material can be used to help strengthen the natural nail, as long as it is thin enough to allow the resin to soak through and bond the layers together.
In the past, technicians were known to use tissue paper and glue to temporarily repair split nails and prevent any further breakages, but this process has since evolved and the wrap process now involves cutting thin layers of fibreglass or silk to shape, and alternating them with resin to create an extended nail or reinforce the natural one.
Silk has the finest weave and therefore gives the most natural looking enhancement when finished, but it also has a reputation for breakages and is considered unsuitable for those with an active lifestyle.
“The advantages of silk wraps are they are flexible, look most natural, are thinner looking than acrylic and gel and they help to protect natural nails that have cracked or been otherwise damaged,” says Pamela Olden, Beauty Trainer at Hennessy Hair & Beauty Ltd.
