What is a hybrid manicure and how to prepare?

Hybrid manicure for several years is one of the favorite methods of nail styling among Polish women. Women love it for the variety of coloring options, shine, beautiful designs and possible decorations, and above all, for durability. It is worth noting that this method is also relatively easy to apply and the perfect effect lasts up to three weeks. Hybrids do not chip or tarnish, remaining resistant to external factors such as water. Currently, more and more women decide to do such nails at home on their own. To start with, it is enough to buy a special UV or LED lamp and a special polish designed for hybrids. It should be noted that with regular manicure, the cost of equipment will pay for itself very quickly, and doing nails often becomes a new hobby or a way to spend free time

How to do hybrids – step by step instructions

In a few steps we will now present how to properly perform a hybrid manicure, so that you can enjoy beautiful nails with shine for a dozen or even several dozen days

  1. Give the appropriate shape to the nails with a file. Gently remove the shine from your nails with a polishing block and remove the dust with a brush.
  2. Rinse nails with degreasing lotion and wait for the liquid to evaporate.
  3. Apply a thin layer of basecoat over the entire nail plate. Then harden the polish under the lamp (1 minute under UV or 10 seconds under LED).
  4. Then paint the nail with a proper hybrid polish, curing it under UV lamp for 2 minutes or under LED lamp for 30 seconds
  5. To get a deep color and a perfectly smooth surface repeat step 4 once (or depending on your preference – twice)
  6. Finally, apply a top coat to protect the nail and add extra shine. Cure under UV lamp for 2 minutes and under LED lamp for 30 seconds.

To safely remove the hybrid manicure yourself, gently rub off the top layer of polish with a file. Then wrap cotton balls soaked in acetone around the nail and wrap in aluminum foil and wait for about 10 minutes. After this time you can carefully remove the cotton pad and remove any polish residue with a stick

Moreover, doing a manicure at home gives you a chance to save a lot of money

Manicure at home – what to remember?

You should be prepared for the fact that doing a hybrid at home on your own takes much longer than at a beautician’s. This is due to the fact that you don’t have to worry about your hair at home.
