Jacqueline, diamond dust is used in a number of nail products. For example, some nail files are coated with diamond dust for added strength and durability. Similarly, it's added to nail polishes and treatments to strengthen the nails and prolong the life of your color.

QiQi, thanks for your question! The funny thing is that so many women use acrylics to hide their weak, soft nails in the first place. Unfortunately, that's just it - they're hiding the problem instead of taking care of it. The result is an even weaker nail when the acrylics are removed (which is a harsh process in itself).

Your clients may be well advised to give their nails a rest, treat the weakness, brittleness, tearing or whatever their nails might be suffering from and then consider acrylics if they want them down the road. Products like Nailtiques, Nail Tek and so forth are outstanding for this purpose, as I'm sure you know.

Good luck!

Hi, i am a manicurist. i would like to know how come after soaking off acrylic nails, the nails tend to be very weak n soft. (no choice, have to keep the nails short after removed)How do i persuade my customer to do another acrylic when they found that their nails will turn out to be weak? what should i tell my customer when they ask me about their weak nails. sorry to be too talkative, because i just started my business and these are my problem..

Ashli, most people need to have them professionally done in order to really see the best results. If they make you feel better about yourself, they are definitely worth it. Thank you for your comment!

Be careful with oils on acrylics, Melody. Some may have a tendency to cause the acrylics to separate, which obviously defeats their purpose a bit. Solar Oil is a great choice to moisturize your cuticles, and a bit of residue will not hurt the acrylic.

Tania, do a bit of research and you'll probably come up with a number of informative sources. Right off the bat I found this. Good luck!

Kitty, rates can vary depending on the salon you visit. I usually like to shop around before settling on the salon with a combination of a great reputation and reasonable rates.

Thanks for your question, Kim! Actually, acrylic won't really help make your nails stronger. Essentially, they create an "artificial" strength for your nail, but they won't make your actual nails any harder.

Try a strengthening treatment instead, such as one of the following:

Andrea, thanks for asking! If you wear acrylics and plan to keep them on, you'll need to get them filled. If you get this done every two weeks, you won't need to have them completely removed and reapplied. Of course, much of this is personal opinion - if you feel like you'd rather have a complete reapplication done, then by all means you can have them removed completely. Hope this helps!

Do you have to apply tips for acrylic nails? My nails are a good length but they tend to break when they get to a certain point. I just wanted to apply the acrylic to make my nails stronger.

I just wonder, is there a time limit on how long I can keep my acrylics on?
