SNS stands for ‘signature nail system’. SNS is a well-known brand of a powder dipping treatment, where you first apply a base coat and then dip your nails in the desired colour powder of your choice, and set with a topcoat. If you’re after strength and durability, SNS is a great option.
Here’s a more detailed look at the benefits:
Durability and Longevity: SNS nails are known for their ability to last for several weeks without chipping or peeling, making them a popular choice for those seeking a long-lasting manicure.
Natural Appearance: The powder used in SNS manicures creates a smooth, natural-looking finish that closely resembles your real nails.
Healthier Option (Potentially): SNS products contain vitamins and calcium, which can help strengthen your natural nails and promote healthy growth. They also don’t require the use of harsh chemicals like formaldehyde, toluene, or DBP, which are sometimes found in other nail treatments.
No UV Light Required: Unlike gel manicures, SNS nails don’t require curing under UV light, eliminating potential concerns about UV exposure.
Quick Application: The dipping process for SNS nails is generally faster than traditional acrylic or gel applications.
Less Maintenance: The long-lasting nature of SNS nails means less frequent trips to the salon for upkeep.
Reduced Odor: SNS products generally have less odor compared to some other nail enhancement systems.
While SNS nails offer these benefits, it’s worth noting that proper application and removal are important for maintaining nail health, regardless of the type of manicure.
