Hi,

Firstly, congratulations on your great news! I promise I wont tell anyone!
Doing enhancements does not harm you whilst pregnant. As long as you clean your work station properly you should be fine! Just ,make sure you dont leave any liquids open or have left any paper towels with monomer on it to create vapours, dust well, take out the rubbish, and most importantly wash your hands afterwards you will have nothing to worry about....although the smell may affect you...you may not like the smells or you may enjoy them more!

Hi, congratulations!! Like the previous poster said, it cant harm you just be sensible with the precautions. And make sure your well ventilated. Last year, I started college when I was 7 weeks pregnant (the course is 38 weeks long!) It was for the nvq2 nails which was manicures, pedicures, fibreglass extensions and nail art. I had a great pregnancy, no sickness or wierd smells/cravings etc... but, I could just about cope with the Kikr from the fibreglass, and because I was doing an evening course, every time I opened the bin, the smell of the acrylic from the day time course was awful. It made me feel so bad, I am just so glad that the acrylic and gel are this year rather than last year as I dont think I could of coped! But everyone is different and the smell prob wont bother u! xx

hi
im currently 28 weeks pregnant and have no probs so far! the only thing is sitting comfortable when you get bigger!
but be sure to clean your hands throughly and regularly to keep any products or dust away from the skin as your skin can be easily irritated...!
good luck x

Hello! Congratulations on your wonderful news? Just wondering about gel nails and the UV lamp, is there any harm there?

Stay safe and congrats!

Just wondering about gel nails and the UV lamp, is there any harm there?

In terms of UV, I don't see it being any more harmful than going out in the sun (but I could be wrong )

Don't see how the uv would affect you as it is facing away from you? also for dust etc you could wear a disposible mask?? ( i wear them now for doing tan) Also i always wear gloves when doing nails??
