5 Nail Care Myths Debunked: The Truth About Nail Glue and Press-On Nails

When it comes to nail care, there’s a lot of information out there—but not all of it is accurate. At Nailmingo, we believe in empowering our customers with the right nailcare knowledge to keep their nails looking fabulous. Let’s debunk some common nail care myths, and show you how our nail glue and press-on nails can help you achieve salon-quality results at home.
 Myth 1: Nail Glue Damages Your Natural Nails
Fact:  Not all nail glues are created equal. Some low-quality adhesives can indeed weaken your nails, but high-quality nail glue, like the one we offer at Nailmingo, is formulated to be strong yet gentle. When applied and removed correctly, our glue holds your press-on nails securely without damaging your natural nails.
   *Nailmingo Tip:* Always follow proper removal techniques—soak your nails in warm water if needed and use our gentle nail glue remover to avoid any potential damage.
 Myth 2: Press-On Nails Don’t Last Long
 Fact: This couldn’t be further from the truth—especially with Nailmingo press-on nails. Our super-strong nail glue can keep your press-ons in place for up to 3 weeks! Plus, our press-on nails are reusable for a lifetime, so you can enjoy them again and again.
   Pro Tip: To maximize the lifespan of your press-on nails, apply a small amount of glue and press firmly for at least 30 seconds. Avoid excessive moisture, which can weaken the bond.
Myth 3: You Need to Visit a Salon for Professional-Quality Nails
 Fact: With the right tools and products, you can achieve salon-quality nails at home. Nailmingo’s press-on nails are designed to look just as stunning as a professional manicure, and they’re much more affordable. Plus, they’re reusable for a lifetime, making them an excellent investment in your nail care routine.
 Nailmingo Tip: Experiment with different designs and styles from our collection to create a personalized, salon-worthy look without ever leaving your home.
Myth 4: You Shouldn’t Wear Press-On Nails if You Have Weak Nails
  Fact: If you have weak or brittle nails, press-ons can actually be a great option. They provide a protective layer that shields your natural nails from further damage. Just be sure to use a nail glue that is strong but gentle, like our super strong nail glue, to avoid putting too much stress on your nails.
   Pro Tip: Give your nails a break between applications to let them breathe and recover.
Myth 5: Press-On Nails Look Fake
   Fact: Press-on nails have come a long way from the thick, unnatural-looking designs of the past. Nailmingo press-on nails are handmade by professional nail technicians and are crafted with a natural fit and finish in mind, ensuring they look just like a professional manicure. With a wide variety of shapes, lengths, and designs, you can find the perfect press-ons to match your style.
 Nailmingo Tip: For a more natural look, choose press-ons that closely match the shape and length of your natural nails.
