What should we do the first time we use the newly bought acrylic nail brush?
When using it for the first time, soak it in hot water for one minute to wash off the sealing wax on the surface of the brush. There is a layer of wax on the surface of the new acrylic nail brush and the wax on the surface can only be removed by soaking in hot water, so please soak it in hot water instead of warm or cold water.
The service life of an acrylic nail brush depends on how it is maintained, so it is necessary to maintain the acrylic nail brush. Next, I will share with you some maintenance methods and warm tips for acrylic nail bush.
1. Maintenance method of acrylic nail brush
Use a special brush saver to cleanse the acrylic nail brush at first. After washing it, in order to keep the hair glossy, you can use the acrylic monomer to moisten the brush and then put on the cap. The oily ingredients in the acrylic monomer can moisturize and protect the brush hairs.
2. Gentle Reminder for Acrylic Nail Brush
1. Place the acrylic nail brush in a cool place, and keep the brush in an upright position, away from direct sunlight.
2. After each use, clean the nail brush immediately to prevent them from becoming hard and sticking, which may cause the brush to be damaged. Use a special brush saver for acrylic nail brushes, do not use nail remover to clean, otherwise it will damage the quality of the hair.
3. Do not clean the brush too frequently, or the brush hairs may become brittle and break easily. Do not rub back and forth forcefully when washing, or it will shorten the service life.
4.If the acrylic nail brush hairs split, soak the brush hair sin boiling water for 1-2 minutes to reshape. If you find that there are only one or two pieces of hair split, just cut them off with scissors.
5. If the acrylic nail brush cannot be used due to severe splitting or sticky acrylic powder, you can soak it in hot water for 1-2 minutes, and then soak the brush in acrylic monomer for more than half an hour and wait for it to recover to its original shape. The soaking time can be determined by the degree of splitting and stickiness of the brush.
6. Do not use cleaning products related to acetone, as this will damage the bristles. Because Acetone will remove the shine from the brush bristle and make the acrylic tacky or build-up residue.
