Check out the latest technological releases in nail polishes and equipment below to modernize your nail salon!

We have already mentioned here on the blog that one of the most important elements that make up a successful nail salon is the entrepreneur's investment in equipment and products that follow market trends, keeping the business always up to date.  

The nail polish market has a lot of fluctuation and circulation of trends. Just like the apparel sector, which also feeds on the collections shown in the major fashion hubs of Europe.

Two strong trends in the market are minimalism, composed of sophisticated design elements, discreet geometric patterns, and a sober color palette, and futurism, which revives aesthetic projections of a metallic future, with references to spaceships and the universe.

In addition, new technologies that add practicality and speed when doing nails are a constant investment that pleases both nail polish consumers and manicurists.

Therefore, discover the latest news in the nail polish market to put your nail salon on the radar of tech-savvy clients!


1) Liquid barrier tapes for finishing

One of the most appreciated skills by nail polish enthusiasts is removing smudges and excess nail polish from nails without ruining the paint job.

With this in mind, Brazilian brands like Luxor and Top Beauty launched liquid tapes to help with this process. When dry, they act as a barrier between the liquid nail polish and the parts of the nail that should not be painted. Thus, after painting the nails, cleaning is easy: just remove the film by peeling it off the fingers.


2) Titanium nippers in your nail salon

Keeping nippers sharp is essential for any manicurist. And it is a major obstacle in their daily routine, since stainless steel nippers easily lose their edge and have reduced durability due to the easy wear and tear of common nippers.

With this in mind, blue titanium nippers are already available on the Brazilian market. This technology makes the nippers lighter, more resistant, and sharper. In addition to ensuring long-lasting sharpness.

The innovative material, just like stainless steel, can also be easily sterilized in dry heat sterilizers and autoclaves – the most common methods in nail salons and beauty salons. It's worth checking out!


3) Nail Art Machine

Nail art is a very strong trend in the cosmetics market. Used by Hollywood celebrities and highly sought after in beauty salons, which usually have specific professionals who take care of customizing and styling the clients' nails.

The process of drawing on nails takes longer and requires a lot of technique from the professionals. But nowadays, there are already machines that can make this process much more practical. They print the art produced by the manicurist in seconds, leaving them with only the task of applying the mini-stickers.

In addition to the endless creation possibilities, the speed of the process makes it more accessible and allows all the manicurists in your salon to do custom nails, thus making your nail salon much more profitable. Have you thought about that?


4) Nail salon with light fix technology

Several brands have already arrived in Brazil offering nail polishes developed using light fix technology. In this process, the product bonds to the nail using sunlight or artificial light, which makes drying faster and more efficient.

In addition, the finish of the paint resembles that of gel nails, known for high quality and durability. But without the need for LED lamps to dry the nail polish.

It is an excellent solution to prevent the client's nails from getting ruined by any movement or during the process of painting the nails.


5) Express nail polish remover

Depending on the nail polish previously used, precious time is lost trying to remove it completely from the nails.

Several Brazilian brands have already launched, thinking about making this process faster, express nail polish removers. They consist of sponges soaked in a hypoallergenic remover liquid, which removes the nail polish from the nail without smudging the fingers or getting the underside of the nails dirty.

The time savings provided are worth the investment.


6) Connected nail salons

Nail salons that still use the old paper planner and telephone to schedule appointments for clients are falling behind. Nowadays there are systems and apps for online scheduling. With them, your client chooses the available time and the professional they want to do the service. Furthermore, some of these systems, like Belasis, also help in managing your business.
