Green nails

[katnailswork]

Hi all
I have a question : if a new client come with green nails (she went to a doctor and he said is nothing) will you do her nails?

I can't attach the foto:sad:

I would do it if she brought a note from her doctor saying that it was nothing or you could do a search for green finger, but before that I would look at it carefully and do a contra-indication check, ask questions about how her finger became green etc. Hope this is helpful

Sorry bebeautiful but there is a big difference between a green nail and green fingers!!
I don't have any greenies on my nails but I do consider that I have green fingers, you should see my garden lol:lol: (green thumbs for our american geeks !!)

Without being able to see the nails then it would be difficult to say whether it would be wise to put on enhancements.
Are all the nals green??....did she have enhancements on before the green nails appeared?? Green nails are usually a bacterial infection.
Best to read the link Fifitrix has given you, and then give us more details if it does not answer your questions.

Thank you all for replying , yes all her nails are green aroud her cuticles , her last nail tech advice her that is better to remove the gels for awhile -when she went for infills one month ago.
I ask her if gels was lift from nails she said yes soo I thought this is the reason but when she went to the doctor becouse the green color was there. The doctor said is not bacterial infection and didn't gave her anything about this.
I file her nails gently to see if green color can be removed some of her nails was clean after that....

you can see the pic in my ablums

I will check the link now.

I think I've done a huge mistake doing her nails after all and I am really scared now if its nail infection.

the green on the nail plate is what and where the infection has been and not the infection itself - if i have a client with this - i use a koala buffer on the nail plate - and plenty of scrubfresh -this usually erradicates alot of the green discolouration, then i proceed as normal.

ps. your link doesnt work flower
