Beau's Lines installment 3 Treatment

How To Treat Beau’s LinesDespite the long list of causes, there are a few things you can do to help a client with Beau’s lines, and a few things your client can do to help herself. The first step in preventing this condition from coming back is to refer your client to her doctor. In many cases, she may have a history of the above conditions. As a nail technician, you are not able to diagnose or treat her condition, but her doctor will be able to give her instructions on how to proceed.
After your client has seen her physician and gets the green light for a nail service, you then have a couple of options. Offer her a set of enhancements, especially if she considers the lines unappealing. But do not apply enhancements if the client has yet to see a doctor to evaluate the cause of the Beau’s lines. You can also provide your client with a natural nail manicure and polish the nails with her favorite color. But be careful; the grooves on the nail mean there isn’t as much nail growth, so you don’t want to file the ridges in an attempt to smooth the nail, as this will cause further damage by making the nail very thin and fragile.
Beau’s lines are caused by a variety of conditions. As with every set of nails at your station that seems out-of-the-ordinary, you need to proceed with caution. The good news for you and your client is that these grooves won’t put an end to her nail services—it’s just a bit of a pause on the road to beautiful nails!

Nailtrition By ORLY Girls Let's Grow These Nails

This is ORLY premium Nailtrition.  This item was not cheap, but one of the first items I bought for my upcoming manicure appointment with my mother.  She has eggshell nails.  I figured what a better time to discuss such nails as right now!  This product is for peeling and splitting nails.  This is a nail strengthening and growth treatment.  Nailtrition helps strengthen peeling and splitting nails.  Collagen, wheat, protien, keratin, and bamboo extract help stimulate healthier, faster growth.  The nails will grow longer and stronger.

Directions: Week one- apply 1-2 coats daily.Remove at the end of that week.  Week two- repeat.  Repeat two week program as necessary, waiting one week before reapplication.  Use with a cuticle therapy cream or I prefer cuticle oil.

This is just one product I got for her Monday mani booking.  I will post on the other items I have aquired over the weekend shopping trip.
