A new client has had an allergic reaction to acylic nails.
This was the first time she has had acrylic nails on - she has only ever used stick ons.
She had removed stick on's a few days before I done her nails.
When i was doing her nails she had a swollen thumb - she wasnt sure what she had done to it.
I done her nails about a week ago and she said the bottom of the nail (around the cuticle) has started to sweel up and her swollen thumb is now double the size.
Im thinking now the swollen thumb was maybe a reaction to the sticks on since it has since swollen again.
Searching online allergies are quite common but I cannot find any information on how to help fix this.
They are going to be taken off today however is there anything my client can use to help repair her nails if there is damage/sensitivity after they are off? Or should all the swelling and any pain she may have go quickly?
Any help/advise would be great!
Also, if she is allergic to the brand I used - would she be allergic to another?
