Buying a professional machine for home use is a tempting idea. Then you can not attend nail studio. True, you will have to take a training course - such serious equipment in inept hands can harm your nails.
Accidental wrong movement, incorrectly chosen rotation of the cutter - and the nail is injured. If this occurs in the area of the hole during cutting of the cuticle, the matrix (nail root) may be damaged. Then the nail plate will forever become defective. And this pleasure costs at least $ 70.
Home appliances for unedged manicure
All such cars are very similar. They are elementary arranged, and they can be produced by different manufacturers. Consider the apparatus for manicure "Avon": reviews of masters and non-professionals, methods of working with it at home, we will dwell on the operations that it can perform. Separately, it should be noted that devices of this class are not really devices for manicure or, even worse, pedicure.
This is the commercial name for automatic nail files. Does it never occur to anyone to call an electric toothbrush a drill for home use? This is also the case with this device. Treat it as a convenient nail file, which you can get the most uncomfortable places and not injure the surrounding tissue.
The device for manicure: model 472 ("Avon")
This appliance is a household appliance and cannot harm your nails. The rotation speed is 7580 revolutions per second, but the power is small (0.4 W). It runs on a single AA battery, voltage of 1.5 V. When pressed a little harder, while working with it, rotation stops. For comparison: the rotation speed of a professional cutter reaches 35,000 rpm, and the power is 100 watts.
This model has three nozzles. There is another device for manicure Avon (5 nozzles). Reviews about this version are identical. As practice shows, most of all one favorite nozzle will be used.
To remove the cuticle, as in the salon, this device will not work. It is also not suitable for removing coarse skin of the nail rollers, removing gel polish, correcting extended nails, and forming a free edge of the nail. However, in some situations, even salon masters can recommend such a device.
What is this unit suitable for?
Consider what the reviews of the masters say about the Avon manicure machine:
- It is really possible to remove pterygium. Constant exposure in this area leads to thinning of the roller, and it no longer hangs over the nail.
- It is possible to file detachments of nails. If you do this with a file, a larger layer of the nail is removed and in addition previously closed areas are printed.
- You can remove a small detachment of gel polish and fix this place with ordinary varnish.
For all these works, the Avon manicure machine is suitable. User reviews mainly relate to polishing and processing of the cuticle, removing the flaky dry skin of the roller. But it is worth expanding the possibilities of using this little hard worker.
Avon manicure machine: how to use?
There are principles for working with cutters when processing nails. They must be observed when using the home model:
- The rotation of the cutter to the nail is never used - so you can damage it.
- The rotation of the cutter from the nail is used to process the rollers on one side, then on the other side.
- The metal nozzle in the cuticle area is never placed vertically and does not climb under the skin of the roller. Work while holding it horizontally.
Why do masters welcome such a purchase?
In the interval between visits to the salon, it will be good if the girl starts using the Avon manicure machine. The reviews of those who have adapted to do so are only laudatory. And the master will not be upset that the cuticle has grown greatly, and there are no cuts.
Sometimes the master has to work with a very advanced cuticle. She pulls the roller, burrs form. This would not happen if sometimes pushing the roller in this area with an orange stick or processing with the Avon apparatus.
How else can I use this device?
Few people know that when decorating, it is sometimes necessary to sand the surface for better adhesion. This is usually done with sandpaper. But this is when it comes to the plane. And if it is a relief? Sandpaper does not just crawl there. And then such a device is needed. It is used by artists specializing in painting phones and similar trifles.
Sometimes a varnish swelled on a favorite wooden box or a piece of enamel broke off jewelry. Avon will come to the rescue. He will be able to carefully prepare the surface, and adhesion to the new decorative coating will be excellent. In winter, when the masters of manicure have less influx of customers, some take small things for repair. With the help of modern means, you can make amazing designs.
How to care?
For your faithful assistant to serve for many years, you should take care of him. By following the usual rules for operating such devices, you can extend its service life by several years. Indeed, there is practically nothing to break in it. It is only necessary to create good conditions for his life:
- Do not allow the apparatus to fall off the table. It can crack, and then the operation will have to stop.
