Liquid and powders |
Nail enhancements, aka acrylic nails, are bases on mixing a combination of : |
|
Methacrylate |
Liquid and powder artificial nail enhancements are based on a subcategory of acrylic called: |
|
Reservoir |
Natural hair bristles absorb and hold liquid monomer like a: |
|
Bead of product |
As monomer liquid absorbs polymer powder, the chemical interaction produces a small: |
|
Polymer powder |
Acrylic nail enhancements are created by combining monomer liquid and : |
|
Polymerization |
Polymer powder is made using special chemical reaction called: |
|
Shades |
Polymer powder is blended with pigments and colorants to produce various: |
|
Catalysts |
Additives designed to speed up chemical reactions of monomer |
|
Benzoyl peroxide |
Initiator added to polymer powder to start the chain reaction of curing nail enhancements |
|
Mix ratio |
Ratio of polymer powder and monomer liquid used to create a product bead |
|
Brittle and discolor |
Too much powder in a mix ratio causes nail enhancements to cure incorrectly and become: |
|
Block adhesive |
When applying nail enhancements, surface moisture and natural oils left on nail plate will: |
|
24 to 48 hrs |
Amount of time required for acrylic nail enhancements require to reach ultimate strength |
|
Nail tips |
Performed nail extensions made from tenter acetate plastic are: |
|
Cyanoacrylate monomers |
Nail adhesives used for securing nail tips are all based on: |
|
Dampen dishes |
Special containers used to hold monomer and powder to minimize contamination and evaporation |
|
Safety eyewear |
Nail should wear these to protect eyes from flying objects and accidental slashes |
|
Vapors |
Masks are designed to prevent inhalation of excessive dust, but offer no protection from: |
|
Nail form |
Nail supply that is placed under free edge to form a nail enhancement |
|
Sable hair |
for use with acrylic products, best brushes to use are composed of: |
|
Middle portion on the brush |
When using brush to shape enhancement on free edge are, use: |
|
Medium consistency |
Second bead of product placed on natural nail should be: |
|
Lifting |
Placing enhancement products to close to the skin nay cause: |
|
Clicking sound |
Nail enhancements tapped with handle of a brush are hard enough to file and shape when they make: |
|
Thin |
For natural looking nails, product application near eponychium, sidewalls, and free edge must be: |
|
2-3 weeks |
Full and proper re balance of all artificial nail enhancements should be done every: |
|
Reduced in thickness |
In rebalance procedure, nail is thinned, apex is removed, and entire nail enhancement is: |
|
Lifting |
Excessive nipping of loose nail enhancement products can damage nail plate and perpetuate: |
|
20-30 minutes |
During removal, acrylic enhancements should be soaked for: |
|
Gently push off softened nail |
When removing softened nail enhancement products, use a wooden or metal pusher and: |
|
Dry mix ratio |
In general, odorless acrylics must be used with a: |
|
Multiple circular motions |
When using odorless product, for proper mix ratio with brush, use: |
|
Inhibition layer |
odorless product harden more slowly, which creates tacky layer called: |
|
Monomer |
Tacky layer of odorless nails can be removed by alcohol, acetone, manufacturer recommended products, or: |
|
