3 Nail Art Techniques that You Should Be Familiar With

There are three nail art techniques that have really come into their own in the last year or so. These are Konad Nail Art, Ceramic Nail Art and Nail Art Decals. This web article will educate you on the staples of each of these techniques thereby allowing you to use them in your client’s designs.

Ceramic Nail Art

Nail Art Canes really reworked the balance of the nail art world. Ceramic Nail Art Canes are tiny ceramic canes wrought in the shape of several things. The list given below is comprised of a few of the most often used designs:

Blossoms
Natural Fruits
Shapes
Butterflies
Sweets

Also known as Fimo Art Canes, these productions are fashioned by hand. Fimo Art Canes procured from “Viva La Nails” are obliged to go through a strict process of quality control. This ensures that only top caliber products are sent out from the factory.

In order to cut slicing from these canes, you will need to find a unique, and razor sharp, cutting tool. Although they tend to work best on artificial nails, fimo art cane cuttings can also be used on natural nails when they are sliced very thin.

Konad Nail Art

Another nail art technique that is becoming quite popular is the Konad system, a system of tools which allows you to produce rapid designs on your client’s nails. Konad takes advantage of state of the art technology to make this possible.

The component that really makes this process work is the unique image plate off of which high quality designs can be effortlessly lifted. When using the system, the nail technician paints on an exclusive Konad coloured nail polish to the metal plate and then transfers the ensuing design onto the nail surface with an original stamping .

In the end, you wind up with a brilliant new pattern that you hardly had to work for! If you need to really wow you clients with something new, this might be the ideal choice.

Just make sure that you only purchase genuine Konad instruments. There are a number of imposter that currently issue in genuine Konad tools that can’t deliver the same level of service. If you need to know with certainty that you are receiving genuine Konad products, you might want to purchase them from “Viva La Nails” where only genuine Konad instruments are sold.

Water Decals

Finally, let’s put in a few words about nail art Water Decals.

In the world of instantly ready nail art tools, Water Decals are number one. You will be able to find a one-of-a-kind assemblage of these wonderful tools at “Viva-La-Nails.”

Nail Art Decals will be easy for you to take advantage of, and they won’t break your budget either. Water decals are also great to use as a compliment to other techniques. Imagine creating designs using Konad, Ceramic Nail Art and Water Decals all in the same schema! There’s really no reason not to!

It’s easy to use Water Decals. The fist step is to soak the design with water or get it wet with a cotton swab. Next gently massage the back of the transfer in order to remove it from the backing. At this point, gently remove the decal from the sheet with either your thumb or an orange stick. Finally, all that must be completed is to arrange the pattern on the nail surface and you’re done!
