You have to take better care of your hands for your wedding day because they are in the spotlight on your wedding day. On this day everyone would want to see “the ring,” and you would also want them to look at nice well done nails and pretty hands. So planning ahead is very important so that your hands look dazzling on your big day.
The classic Look:
First of all your nails should be very clean and shaped perfectly. The classic way nails are painted for a wedding is using white and then the entire nail is painted with a soft, clear pink or eggshell color. The other classic colors include plum, red, wine, pink, coral and soft lilac, which are all good choices for your wedding day.
Manicure - Amazing Acrylics:
If you for some reason not able to grow your own nails, an acrylic set of artificial nails is the way to go. The acrylic tips should be filled in almost every two weeks. Acrylic is often thought to damage the nail beneath. This is just a quick fix and not a real solution to the problem nails. The other advantage of acrylic nails is that they come with certain innovative designs and shapes that can catch people’s attention.
Get a Professional Manicure:
In case you want to keep the nails natural, you should schedule a professional manicure a few months before your wedding. Setting aside an hour once or twice a month to pamper your hands will give you a good feel about yourself. This kind of treatment of the nails will help them grow stronger and look nicer.
If you don’t know a good manicurist ask your friends for references. And while looking for a good salon, don’t forget to inquire about their health and safety practices. Make sure you go to a salon where tools are disinfected after each use, and all manicurists should be licensed ones. If you still doubt the salon, don’t go there. And if you are not able to get answers to all your questions, then bring your own set of tools for the manicurist to use.
