Importance Of manicure

The word “manicure” has come from two words which are “manus” and “cura”, which means “hand” and “care”. The very basic manicure routine would include shaping of the nails, treating the cuticles, moisturizing the hands and polishing the nails. Besides these, there are many other forms of manicure as well, and each has its own advantage.

The benefits of manicure are numerable, whether one wants to improve the look of the nails or want to fix the damaged nails or cuticles. Manicure can also prevent many other problems from arising in the future, such as hang-nails, fragile nails and wrinkles in the hands and cuticles.

Every manicure giver would have a personal and different style of giving a manicure. But there are many common manicure tools that most of the nail technicians use. These common tools include the nail clippers, brushes, buffers, cuticle pushers and clippers along with a bowl of water to soak the hands. They also have such other things as a soap, cuticle cream or oil, hand lotion, nail polish remover, and of course the nail polish itself along with the towels and sanitizer.

There are many types of manicure that people get for themselves. But few basic steps are the same in each manicure, which are cleaning, shaping, and painting, but there are different application methods that follow each different manicure. Like a French manicure is different from a paraffin manicure, because a wax is used to moisturize the hands, while the others have a white tip on the nail. Mostly the French manicure is what people mostly want.


In French manicure a light coloured polish is applied on the whole nail and then over it a white polish is applied on the tips. The paraffin manicure has the advantage then because the hands are soaked in the paraffin wax, they help make the hands very soft. Some of the other popular manicures are a hot stone, spa manicure and a luxury manicure. These types of manicures are good for those people who have a little more time to sit and relax. This is actually a real treat for them.
