Massaging the oil into your nail bed and surrounding skin protects the cuticle and can help stimulate nail growth between salon visits.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766159450208\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What happens if you pick off your gel polish?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Picking off gel polish removes the top layers of your nail, leading to brittle and weak nails that can break easily. To keep your nails healthy, always book a proper removal appointment instead of peeling the polish yourself.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766159450209\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">Should you cut your cuticles during a manicure?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">You should avoid excessive cuticle cutting, as it can leave the nail unprotected from infection. Instead, gently push back cuticles with a sanitised tool and only trim the dead, loose skin for best results.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766159450210\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">What can you do if your nails have bumps or ridges?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Lightly buffing your nails once a week can help even out small ridges. Bumps and ridges are often hereditary, but they can also result from damage to the nail matrix and regular, gentle buffing can make them less noticeable.<\/div>\n<div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1766159450211\">\n<h3 class=\"schema-faq-question\">Why might your nails become discoloured?<\/h3>\n<p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Nail discolouration can be caused by lifestyle factors like smoking, a poor diet, or staining from nail polish.
