We hope you had a great time playing Holi to the fullest, coloring the town (and yourself) with all the colors of the rainbow! Our #NothingIsHolierThanThyBody Holi blogs have already demonstrated how Grace & Glamour salon treatments allow you to have a good time during the festival without causing any hair and skin damage.
But now, let’s not forget something very important—our nails!
Nails or a Holi Color Palette?
Come on, be honest—do your fingernails resemble the ones you’d dig out of a paint can? Then hurray! You played well! Hehe! But now, let’s take care of them a bit.
With all the color fights and celebrations, your nails tend to dry up, become brittle, or get stained. Don’t worry—our Grace & Glamour experts have some simple post-Holi nail repair tricks to make them look as good as new!
Quick Fixes to Repair Holi-Pigmented Nails
- Wash Them Clean
Step one? Soap and warm water to scrub your hands and nails clean! Remove any color residue. Use a toothbrush gently to scrape off tough stains from the nail bed and cuticles.
- Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize!
Colors and chemicals dry out your nails and make them brittle. Treat them with some TLC by:
✔ Using a moisturising cuticle oil to keep them nice and hydrated.
✔ Applying a moisturizing hand cream to keep cracking at bay.
- Avoid Harsh Nail Products
Removers that contain acetone will dry out your nails further. Instead, use a non-acetone remover that is gentle to remove any old polish or tough stains.
- Strengthen with Caution
If your nails are weak and flaky, try:
✔ A keratin- or biotin-enriched nail strengthener to stimulate growth.
✔ Keeping your nails short and filed to avoid breakage.
- Get a Professional Manicure
Let’s be real—sometimes DIY is just not going to work. Holi color has a fondness for sticking to your cuticles and nails, and rubbing too hard only makes them worse. Step in here, professional mani-pedi at Grace & Glamour.
Why a Post-Holi Mani-Pedi is a Must!
A good manicure and pedicure not only make your nails look great—they also bring back health, strength, and shine! Here’s why you can’t miss it:
✔ Removes Persistent Stains – Holi colors are difficult to wipe away, but our expert nail technicians use special tools and methods to erase them without any harm.
✔ Deep Hydration – Your cuticles and nails have been subjected to colors, hence they must be hydrated to remain healthy and soft. A perfect mani-pedi locks the moisture in and prevents the cracking.
✔ Boosts Blood Flow – That massage part of a mani-pedi is not just for relaxation–it enhances blood flow in your feet and hands, easing swelling and fatigue from all that Holi fun.
✔ Gets the Glam Back! – shiny, healthy nails or bright nail art – our professionals will trim, file, and buff your nails to a shine.
So, What’s the Plan?
Holi is over, but your me-time shouldn’t be! Give your nails love with a nice clean-up and pampering session at Grace & Glamour.
So, Gurgaon walo, don’t wait—get your nails fabulous again! See you at the salon!
