Guys,
Please share your opinions on this with me......
Had a client a couple of days ago who presented me with a catalogue of disasters
Trauma/split to both thumbs below the free egde, quite old, no infection but until it grows out will continue to distort the nail shape. Client said that they were due to accidents whilst wearing extensions (she works in a warehouse)
She had freqented a very poor drill operator for some time. Each nail had several levels to it from over drilling, she couldn't believe that I completed the whole process without a drill and remarked that it was so much more of a pampering experience.
There were white areas (perhaps a little separation) on a couple of nails going vertically down from the free edge. I discussed fungal infection with her and she said no and that they were due to trauma again accidents at work which seemed plausible given the way they looked.
I proceeded to give her the best acrylics I could, kept them short and gave them a decent shape to compensate for the problem areas. I could not bring myself to apply primer, they were in such a state but I did say that I would attend to any early problems without charge. I really felt like she needed to be looked after a little more, she didn't even know of the benefits of cuticle oil!
I haven't heard from her so I assume they are still on I'm wondering though whether I should suggest a fungal treatment as a preventative given the amount of problems she has. I read that Dr G's Clear Nail is good and can be used whilst structures are still on what do you think?
