Acrylic Nail Fill: A Comprehensive Guide
When to Get a Fill
Acrylic nails require regular fills to maintain their optimal appearance and durability. The frequency of fills varies depending on individual factors such as nail growth rate and activity level. However, as a general rule, you should aim to get your acrylic nails filled:
- Every 2-3 weeks for natural nail growth
- More frequently if you engage in activities that put stress on the nails, such as typing or playing an instrument
- Whenever you notice significant lifting or chipping
How to Prepare for a Fill
Before going for an acrylic nail fill, there are a few steps you can take to prepare:
- Remove any nail polish: Using either a nail file or non-acetone nail polish remover, gently remove any nail polish present on the acrylic nails.
- Trim and shape your nails: If necessary, trim and shape your acrylic nails to your desired length and style using a nail file.
