Fibreglass and Silk Wrap Nails
Fibreglass and Silk Wrap Nails Brief Explanation
Also known as nail wraps, a professional nail technician coats natural nails with layers of fibreglass / silk mesh. The technician treats the mesh with resin, then with an activator to harden the extension. Fibreglass and Silk Wrap Nail Extensions are considered more durable than natural nails. Women typically use them to get the look of longer, perfect nails and as a base for wearing nail polish, nail art and various nail decorations.
Why use a Fibreglass / Silk Wrap System?
Aesthetic Appeal
Fibreglass nails tend to look more appealing than natural nails. Nail extensions are usually flawless in particular when applied by a professional. Artificial nail tips may be used which have been machined to exact specifications, so they provide a perfect nail shape and length for the client. Nail extensions lend themselves very well to finishing techniques such as airbrushing, which do not work as well on natural nails. This means the wearer can sport more eye-catching designs on the extensions than on natural nails.
Thin and Flexible
Fibreglass nail extensions are thinner than lots of other types of nail extensions, for example, acrylic enhancements. This makes the extension closely resemble a natural nail. Fibreglass nails are less detectable during wear than acrylic nails. The thinness means the nail extensions are also more flexible, which allows the wearer more freedom of movement. Stiffer nail extensions restrict the wearer's ability to perform some activities.
Nail Biting
Nail biters can often benefit from the wearing of fibreglass nail extensions. Fibreglass is tough and resistant to tearing and biting. The finishes used in the nail extension tend to taste offensive and will deter the nail-biting habit. Fibreglass and Silk Wrap Nail extensions offers nail biters the ability to have beautiful, long nails and give their cuticles a chance to heal and grow.
Nail Decorations
Nail polish adheres to fibreglass nail extensions extremely well and normally better than it does to natural nails. With less chipping and peeling, it also means the manicure will last longer. Nail technicians can coat the extensions with a special finish, so the polish will not be subjected to normal wear and tear. Nail extensions are strong enough to be pierced and can support decorations such as nail dangles and nail decals.

What Is The Difference Between Fibreglass and Silk Wraps?
Not a lot of difference really. Fiberglass and silk Nail Wraps are applied in the same way, the only difference is the material used in the process. Fiberglass tends to be a bit sturdier than silk, but that is where the differences end. Both fiberglass and silk are kind to natural nail health, provide natural looking length, and endure for roughly the same length of time.
