Let’s talk
Primers
Knowing what your clients needs are is beyond important, this is also why doing a client consultation is so important.
​
Know your clients natural nails can change for so many reasons, so you should assess them often.
Things that can change the clients nails:
- Medication
- Trauma
- Hormones
- Diet
- Weather
​
Please keep in mind this is just a quick idea, there are so many factors.
There are so many primer options on the market, depending the brand you use they have have multiple options to pick from. You need to match the primer to your client.
Did you know Bases also matter…Rubber Base Coats also has acid in them.
Absolute Rubber Base is a low level acid base.
​
If your client has dried out nails do not use a acid based primer and rubber base. Use Acid Free Primer and Rubber Base for best adhesion.
​
If your client is a bad lifter (with perfect prep) try acid based primer.
​
Both types of primers have amazing benefits and we would recommend you have both at your desk.
​
Acid Primer is the original formula of the nail market and we often hate to come away from what we know best.
​
Acid Free primer is the newer kid on the block but again this change can make all the difference for some clients.
