It is probably difficult to find a modern wife who does not want to be the owner of luxurious manicured nails. Modern varieties of manicure design allow you to relax your imagination and make a real work of art out of nails. One of the types of manicure techniques on extended nails, no doubt, is the aquarium nail design.
The peculiarity of this type of nail design is that due to special materials and the art of the master on the nails, a volume effect is created. On the nails, the drawing or modeling elements selected by the client are performed, and on top everything is covered with a layer of a special transparent gel. Next, the surface of the nail is polished and it is given a mirror glossy shine. Thus, a chic image effect “under the glass” is obtained. Due to its unusual appearance, the nail design made using this technique will be a great addition to an evening or wedding outfit, and lovers of custom solutions can wear it every day. True, it is worth noting that nail extension "aquarium design" is most suitable for bright and active women, whose whole style will successfully combine with such nails.
An important feature of this type of nail design is the mandatory preliminary nail extension. The pattern can be done in any technique: volume modeling, flat acrylic modeling, application with foil, thread, lace, flat painting. The choice of patterns or decorative elements in this type of manicure is huge - it can be sparkles, dried flowers, small pictures and logos, rhinestones and everything that the soul desires. Aquarium nail design requires careful development of the entire artistic composition. The fact is that as the nail grows, it is not necessary to cut off the extended acrylic layer - on top of the new part of the grown nail, you can create an additional picture, thus updating your image and changing the annoyed image. The choice of a specific type of design depends more on the shape of the nail, since each of them has its own application technique.
Aquarium nail design also has another advantage - when properly worn, it lasts about 3 months without additional procedures for adjustment and care, which makes it very convenient for a trip on vacation or simply in chronic time trouble.
Nail extension "aquarium" - technique
First, the nails are prepared for extension - a dry manicure is done and the nail plate is processed accordingly. Next, the master builds up a layer of gel or acrylic (most often they use extensions on forms and tips). A volumetric decorating “picture” is applied directly to the base pattern, then it is all covered with gel and the surface is polished. If desired, you can create a pattern in several layers - so the nails will look even more spectacular. In order for the aquarium nail design to look elegant and last long, it must be done by a professional craftsman who works with high-quality materials and has an artistic taste. If necessary, a layer of varnish of the desired color can be applied over the picture. For example, if your working dress code requires a strict manicure, you can easily cover your entire nail design with pastel-colored varnish , and then simply remove it. The surface of the finished nail can also be decorated with volumetric elements, but such nails will be very short-lived - this option is suitable, rather, for special cases.
Aquarium nail design is an interesting modern trend in the beauty industry, which will allow you to add variety to your everyday look and make your hands even more beautiful.
