"Polygel Nails: The Viral Manicure Trend Taking the Beauty World by Storm"

Polygel nails, a hybrid between gel and acrylic manicures, are gaining popularity for their strength, flexibility, and natural appearance. The gel formula used in polygel nails is malleable and comes in various colors and finishes. While best applied at a salon, polygel nails are easy to apply and remove, odorless, non-toxic, and versatile. They last until soaked or filed off and require maintenance every 3-4 weeks. The cost of a polygel manicure varies, but most salons charge between $55-$150 for a full set. Proper application and removal are crucial to prevent damage to natural nails. After removal, it is recommended to treat nails with hydrating products to keep them healthy.

A woman in the UK has developed a suspected allergy to nail products after years of getting her nails done without issue. Her nails became inflamed and started peeling away from the nail bed after a set of gel nails in February. After getting a set of acrylic nails put on last month, the same thing happened and she could barely move her hands due to the pain. She can never again have gel or acrylic nails and believes it’s an allergy. She has been prescribed medication to treat her and has warned others to be careful.

The Dangers of Long-Term Gel Nails: Hand Mobility Impairment.

A woman who had been getting gel manicures for years developed severe pain and inflammation, and her nails began falling off. Doctors attributed the symptoms to a bacterial infection and gave her a steroid cream and antibiotics to fight it. However, the pain and signs of infection seemed to go away, so she got her nails done again, deciding to try acrylic nails instead. Within days, her nails began to peel away from the nail bed, leaving her in so much pain that she could "barely" move her hands. Dermatologists have recently reported seeing an increase in allergic reactions to acrylic and gel nails, with some doctors seeing the phenomenon "most weeks."
