Hi everybody,
I need some advice on what is wrong with my nails? I know it is an error on my part but unfortunately, due to really crappy training and still waiting to retrain, I have no information on exactly what it is I've done?
I qualified at the beginning of February and have pretty much had extensions on my nails since then. Because I have nobody to practice on and also I have been led down the crap road of ASP which is horrible to my nails, I have changed the colour a lot and had to replace nails frequently. Just to clarify, I am a lot better on my work now, which I made sure was the case before I started doing nails on clients, but the other day I spoke to my trainer as I had problems removing the ASP signature colour and she recommended to soak my fingers in the soak off solution. I did this and it completely melted my tips and I ended up pulling them off.
I have now decided to leave my nails off and let them grow at their own accord, but on my forefinger nail and slightly on my middle finger nail, they are very sore to touch and have red marks on them as you can see in the picture.
The forefinger is particularly painful and feels a bit like there is a red hot needle going through the nail when ever I have pressure on the nail such as using it to pick things up and push against something. I am really sad as I've had a lot of problems and I'm now really worried that I have permanently damaged my nails which isn't really a great advert to my clients so I'm just wondering if anybody knows what I may have done or can recommend anything to ease the pain and to help the nail repair it self?
It sometimes feels quite hot when I'm not even doing anything with it, I am just aware of the pain in my nail most of the time. I am ashamed to say that this is not the first time I have picked off extensions but yet I have never had this problem and can possibly only put it down to too much work being done on my hands because I had nobody to practice on
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I feel like I'm completely at the end of my tether with everything
