i have a phobia about nipping and cutting cuticles>>correction sorry it is the eponychium which i always deal with caution ...i would rather roll them back than nip them(just delicate fragile little things thats all).but i need a little help with a constant problem that one of my friends (also a client)whose cuticles grow too far over the nailplate and up the sides of her nails and are quite.. no other way to describe this except "firmly stuck tight " ive tried all ways to minimise her discomfort and lessen them from soaking in oil & nipping gently a bit after each soak(with some worried expression from her) to warm oil wrappings around her fingers & solar oil ..the solar oil does work for her for a while for softening them then dry out two weeks later ...hence back to square one..she always has her hands in water often but wears gloves and if she gets as much as a small rip on her cuticles it's sore for days..im always looking to you guys for help and some i give out myself she has been on at me that she really wants pink & white acrylic sculptured nails (even tho i'm still re-training)and is becoming impatient that shes giving me a headache... im just bit worried about applying P&W because of her cuticle probs and how long the nails are gonna last ect..ect.....im stumped and at a lost..any ideas >????
