In the context of nail wraps, the use of a monomer is not necessary. Nail wraps are typically adhered to the natural nail using adhesive, which allows the wrap to stay in place and provides a solid foundation. Nail primer is sometimes used to enhance the bond between the natural nail and the wrap, while a nail dehydrator prepares the nail surface by removing moisture and oils, ensuring better adhesion. The monomer, commonly associated with acrylic systems and used to create a chemical bond in polymerization, does not apply to the process of applying nail wraps, which rely on adhesive rather than a chemical bonding process. Thus, the correct choice highlights the absence of a monomer in the application of nail wraps.
