Chapter 28 Monomer Liquid & Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements
Learning Objectives • Explain monomer liquid and polymer powder nail enhancement chemistry and how it works. • Name the specific tools, equipment, and supplies required to perform monomer liquid and polymer powder nail enhancements. • List the steps to apply nonacid and acid-free nail primers. • Explain how to properly store monomer liquid and polymer powder products. (continues)
Learning Objectives (continued) • Describe the apex, stress area, and sidewall, and tell where each is located on the nail enhancement. • Describe how to perform a one-color maintenance service on nail enhancements using monomer liquid and polymer powder. • Demonstrate how to perform crack repair procedures. (continues)
Learning Objectives (continued) • Implement the proper procedure for removing monomer liquid and polymer powder nail enhancements. • Describe the general process for using odorless products. • List two ways to create nail art from monomer liquid and polymer powder.
Introduction • Chemical make-up of monomer liquid and polymer powder enhancements • The specific tools, equipment, and supplies needed • Liquid monomers and powder polymers can be used: – To place enhancements over a natural nail, over a tip or over a form – To create beautiful nail art
Convey the Chemistry of Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements • Monomer means “one unit” (unit being a molecule) • Polymer means “many units” (many molecules) • When mixed together, they form a long, chain-like structures that create nail enhancements which can be applied over the natural nail, a tip, a form, or can be used to sculpt nail art. (continues)
Convey the Chemistry of Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements (continued) • EMA – ethyl methacrylate monomer, which is the industry standard • Odorless – has a lower odor than the traditional monomer • MMA – methyl methacrylate monomer, which is not recommended for use on nails and is not legal according to the state board rules in some states (continues)
Convey the Chemistry of Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements (continued) • Polymer powder is made up of polymerization, also known as curing or hardening, a chemical reaction that creates polymers.
Specify the Supplies Required for Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements • Monomer liquid • Polymer powder • Nail dehydrator • Nail primer (continues)
Specify the Supplies Required for Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements (continued) • Abrasives • Nail forms • Nail tips (continues)
Specify the Supplies Required for Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancements (continued) • Dappen dish • Monomer liquid and polymer powder application brush • Safety eyewear • Dust masks • Protective gloves
Storing and Disposing of Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Products • Store monomer liquid and polymer powder products in a covered container. • Mix liquid and powder together before discarding if there is a small amount. • Liquid and powder should not be discarded in the trash directly. It should be poured in a paper towel and secured in a plastic bag and then disposed of properly.
Maintenance, Crack Repair, and Removal • Maintenance helps prevent lifting or cracking. • Proper maintenance must be performed every two to three weeks.
Properly Structured Nail Enhancements • Apex • Stress area • Smile line • Sidewall • Nail extension underside
Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Enhancement Removal • Soak the enhancements off of the nail using acetone or the manufacturer’s suggested removal solution. • Remove the enhancement, and complete the service.
Describe Odorless Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Products • Different chemistry than other monomer liquid and polymer powder enhancements • Have a slight odor • Used with a dry mix ratio
Utilize Colored Polymer Powder Products • Available in a wide range of colors that mimic almost every shade available in nail polish. • Nail artistry is limited only by your imagination. • Some professionals use colors to offer custom-blended colors.
Create Monomer Liquid and Polymer Powder Nail Art by Alisha Rimando Botero. • 3 -D nail art – any art that protrudes from the nail. • Inlaid designs – designs inside a nail enhancement, created when nail art is sandwiched between two layers of product while the nail enhancement is being formed.
Summary and Review • In this chapter, you learned about the chemical make-up of monomer liquid and polymer powder enhancements, as well as all of the specific tools, equipment, and supplies needed to perform the various services that would utilize these products. • Liquid monomers and powder polymers can be used to place enhancements over a natural nail, over a tip, or over a form, as well as using it to create beautiful nail art.
