Hi there I'm new!!
I have done my manicure and nail extensions exams afew years ago and am currently doing the essential nails airbrush course. I took it on originally as a hobby because I really enjoy it but would like to expand further as a part time career. I currently work full time in an office which I also enjoy, so I'm abit torn between the two. Anyway enough babbling, I'll get to the point...!
I recently did a set of french acrylics on a lady, which went fine. However, the next day, my left hand started uncontrollably itching. I have a bad habit of leaving the tissue/towel I have wiped my brush on under my hand. I think that because I had my left hand resting on the table to support the clients hand, I transferred the acrylic liquid to my skin. the itching only lasted for a few days, but now I am worried that I may be allergic to acrylic. (I am also allergic to hair tint/colours). Does anyone else suffer with this problem? I will in future be very careful not to get it on my skin and to keep my tissues/towel for brush blotting off to one side. I intend to start wearing gloves but wondered if this may be restricting and get in the way while I'm working. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you
