The Benefits of a Manicure for Health & Wellbeing.
A manicure is so much more than just paint for your nails. It’s a personal indulgence, a way of giving back to yourself. It can make a big difference to your sense of self-worth. A manicure also has a multitude of health benefits beyond just your physical appearance.
A little slice of relaxation.
A manicure is deeply relaxing. When you give yourself over to a qualified, experienced technician such as the beauticians in the Purely Polished network, you are putting your hands into some very capable ones. A good beautician does more than just varnish your nails – they allow you to check in on yourself through cosy conversation. Nothing beats a cheeky gossip sesh with your favourite stylist, after all.
The process of having your nails done is very relaxing as well. Booking in a Luxury Manicure is one of the best ways to tap into relaxation at home. It comes with all the perks of a Classic Manicure with some added bells and whistles, such as the application of some moisturising products as well as a therapeutic massage. Your hands work hard, so it’s good to show them some love, too.
A boost of confidence.
A striking manicure is a fashion statement of its own and can really elevate an outfit. Keep things classic with French tips or a red gloss, or go bold and bright with neons and nail art. A manicure is a fantastic way to show off your personality in an understated way. It’s also a great way to strike up a conversation with others and have those precious compliments flow your way.
We use our hands constantly, for everything. Since they are constantly on display, it pays to have them looking polished and clean. How much better do you feel with good-looking hands? The answer is a lot. You pose better in photos, you shake hands with more confidence, you look dainty when you laugh – and you truly realise how much you’re showing off your hands. Everyone deserves to feel that poised all the time.
Good for the body, good for the soul.
Self-care is a soul food, and a manicure is a great way to dedicate some time to yourself. The psychological benefits that a beautiful manicure bring cannot be understated, but there are some obvious physical benefits as well.
Regular manicures ensure that your hands are healthy. They maintain the integrity of your natural nail and protect the delicate parts under layers of polish ( or powder if you opt for SNS). A good a manicure will address the whole nail, from the cuticle to the tip, ensuring that everything is clean, tidy and healthy. A massage with your manicure stimulates blood flow for healthy nails. Nourishing oils feed the nail from the inside out, ensuring it is strong and shiny. Your trained technician will be able to spot anything of concern as well, such as cuts in the skin or fungal infections.
Wellness, one step at a time.
If you struggle to find that all-important time needed to dedicate to your own self-care, something as simple as a manicure at home can help. In such chaotic and uncertain times, it is important to allow yourself these moments of indulgence. A pretty coat of paint can do a lot for your mental health.
