Why is hydration important in manicure and pedicure services?

Hydration is critical in manicure and pedicure services because it helps maintain skin elasticity. Well-hydrated skin is more supple and resilient, reducing the likelihood of dryness, cracking, and irritation, particularly around the nails and cuticles. This elasticity is essential for the overall health of the skin, making it less prone to injury and more able to withstand the physical manipulation that occurs during nail care services.

While hydration may influence factors such as fungal infections, nail polish adhesion, and nail growth, the direct relationship between hydration and skin elasticity is particularly significant in the context of these services. Enhancing skin elasticity helps in achieving a more aesthetically pleasing appearance and ensures comfort during and after the treatment.
