Impact of Water, Chemicals, and Climate on Nail Health
Strong, healthy nails are the result of proper care, good nutrition, and professional techniques. But even the best manicure can lose its effect if your nails are constantly exposed to external stress factors. At MONLIS School Munich, we teach our students to understand these factors and guide clients on how to keep their nails healthy in the long run.
1. The Effect of Water
Water can be both a friend and an enemy for nails. Frequent and prolonged contact with water, especially hot water, causes the nail plate to swell and then dry out. This makes nails brittle and prone to splitting. People who often wash dishes, clean, or work in humid environments are particularly at risk.
MONLIS School Recommendations:
Wear protective gloves during household chores.
Apply nourishing oil or hand cream after contact with water.
Keep nails moisturized regularly to maintain elasticity.
2. Chemical Exposure
Cleaning agents, solvents, and aggressive chemicals strip natural oils from the nails and can damage their structure. This leads to white spots, peeling, and sometimes even complete lifting of gel or polish.
What We Teach in Our Courses:
Educating clients on how to handle chemicals safely.
The importance of using protective gear such as nitrile or latex gloves.
Choosing gentle, skin-friendly products in the salon setting.
3. Climate and Environment
Extreme temperatures, dry indoor heating in winter, or high UV exposure in summer also affect nail health. Dry air depletes moisture from the nail plate, causing brittleness. In summer, sun and salt water can dry nails even further.
MONLIS School Tips:
Use rich hand creams with panthenol and vitamin E during winter.
Apply sunscreen to your hands, not just your skin, in summer.
Regularly buff and oil the nails to strengthen their natural barrier.
4. The Combination of Factors
The combination of multiple stress factors – for example, water and chemicals or dry air and insufficient care – is especially damaging. Proper consultation and regular preventive care are key to maintaining nail health.
At MONLIS School Munich, future nail designers learn how to analyze nail conditions, recommend the right products, and provide preventive solutions to protect the nails.
5. Professional Prevention
The best way to protect nails is prevention:
Regular manicures with gentle techniques – to strengthen the nail structure.
Use of high-quality products – free from harmful chemicals.
Personalized client advice – tailored to individual lifestyle and habits.
Seasonal care adjustments – more moisture in winter, UV protection in summer.
