During the rest of the year, most people don’t even remember to keep their feet hydrated after a shower, totally forgotten. Nothing strange considering that they spend months hidden by socks. However, in summer the story is very different and then you do want to dedicate some care to them so that they look as perfect as possible. And this includes the pedicure.

With sandals, flip-flops and other open shoes, you want to show off some pretty feet. The nails even become a complement to which you can give different designs and colors. However, not all nails are lucky enough to be in an ideal state to be able to apply a little polish and be ready to hit the streets. Some are very short or need a previous restoration for it. In those cases, the acripie technique is especially recommended.

The acripie is an aesthetic pedicure technique that consists of restoring and then beautifying the toenails. It is one of the most popular in beauty salons, since it is the ideal option for nails that present some type of difficulty in creating a design. For example, the most common case is that they are especially short, so it would not be feasible to perform other types of methods on them due to their insufficient length.

To make an acripie pedicure, acrylic is used, so the result will be false nails that are shaped and designed by encapsulating the nail area with this specific material. In this way, its natural form can be artificially changed without suffering any type of damage. The final result will be aesthetic, defined and homogeneous nails. Because the acripie is also useful in cases where the toenails are uneven.

After having properly cleaned and disinfected the feet and the nail area in particular, it is time to prepare them. To do this, the cuticles must be removed in a manner that is respectful of them and the nails must be filed until an ideal surface is achieved to apply the acrylic. Next, a primer base is placed that adheres correctly and then begin to apply the material, distributing it evenly throughout the space that is part of the design. Little by little, the nails will be shaped with the help of a brush until the desired result is achieved in each one of them. To finish, you just have to let them air dry and decorate them to taste, although they can also be left as is, giving a more natural effect.
