The Manicure That Lasts One Month

"My first dip-powder manicure was insane.  No chipping, no peeling and still in perfect condition at the 4 week mark."

For the past several years I have been an on and off again shellac manicure girl.  I love that shellac lasts longer than a regular manicure (up to 2 weeks) but I hate that when it chips I can't take it off by myself plus my nails definetely get thin and brittle.

A month and a half ago, Tracy at Natural Nails & Spa in Edwards, CO recommended that I try a dip-powder manicure.  I was unaware of this new (ok, not so new, but new to me) type of manicure.  She explained that it will last up to 3-4 weeks and will keep my nails much stronger. I decided to give it a try. 

My first dip-powder manicure was insane.  No chipping, no peeling and still in perfect condition at the 4 week mark.  The only noticable change was the growth from the cuticle bed.  I went with a very light pink color so the grow out wasn't that obvious.  I'm now on my second dip-powder manicure and love that I don't have to go back for an entire month.  Just like shellac manicures, I plan on giving my nails a breather after the second month or so.

A few things to consider prior to a Dip-Powder Manicure...

  • The Price.  Dip-Powder nails average around $50, Shellac nails $35 and natural manicure $20.
  • The Color.  Dip-Powder nails can last up to one month (or longer) so you need to choose your color accordingly.
  • The Shape.  Do you prefer a round, oval, square or pointed nail shape?
  • The Salon.  Please do your research and find a reputable, clean and professional nail salon.  
  • Go Naked.  I know you will love your dip-powder nails, but nail health is important.  Give your nails a break in between your manicures and go naked. 

 

If you are interested in getting the dip-powder manicure, I highly recommend Tracy at Natural Nails & Spa in Edwards, CO. 

Do you rock the dip-powder manicure? If so, what are your thoughts?
