Question: 1 / 400

What often causes lifting in nail enhancements?

Inadequate preparation of the nail plate

Lifting in nail enhancements is primarily caused by inadequate preparation of the nail plate. When the natural nail is not properly prepped, it can prevent the enhancement material from adhering effectively. This process typically involves cleaning the nail surface, removing any natural oils, and ensuring that the nail is dry and smooth. If this step is rushed or poorly executed, it can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in lifting as the enhancement fails to bond securely to the natural nail.

Other factors, such as overuse of nail products, improper drying time, and excessive heat exposure can contribute to issues in nail enhancements, but they are not the fundamental causes of lifting. Proper nail preparation is critical, as it forms the foundation for the entire enhancement application.
