Here is the real scoop on nail anatomy, maintenance, and why proper removal is the only way to avoid damage. ## Photos and videos - [Video: Let's bust a common myth. Your nails are dead cells and don't need to "breathe." Damage usually happens from improper removal, not from the polish or extensions themselves. As a professional, it's my job to educate clients on proper nail care.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/cce2acba-5e1e-4a10-9d66-aba35cb45b5e) - [Video: So many people ask if nail extensions will ruin their natural nails. The truth is, the damage almost always comes from improper removal. If you peel or rip them off at home, you take a layer of your natural nail with it. Always get them removed professionally.](https://assets.mytribe.in/insecure/raw:1/plain/s3://mytribe-assets-production/13ffb3f7-2f0d-4565-87fe-354079178d8a) ## About Nail Care & Expert Advice Let’s clear the air: your nails don’t need to breathe, they are made of dead cells called keratin. The damage people complain about? That is almost always caused by peeling off gel polish or extensions at home instead of getting them removed professionally. When you rip them off, you are stripping layers of your own nail plate, not just the product. If you want to keep your natural nails healthy while rocking extensions, the secret is strictly professional removal, every single time. ### Debunking the 'Nail Breathing' Myth I hear this all the time from clients. They worry that constant gel polish or extension application prevents their nails from 'breathing.' Here is the science: your nails get all their nourishment and oxygen from the blood supply in your nail bed, not from the surface. If you see damage, it is not because the nail was suffocating. It is usually because the prep, application, or removal process was rushed. ### The Real Culprit Behind Damage Most of the 'damage' I see in my studio in Dombivli comes from the 'peel-off' trap. When a client tries to remove gel polish or extensions at home using their own nails or a tool, they inevitably lift the top layer of their natural nail plate along with the product. ### How We Do It Right - **Professional Soak-Off:** I never force products off. We use a proper soak-off method or gentle electric filing, keeping your natural nail plate intact. - **Proper Product Choices:** I am extremely picky about what I use. I only work with HEMA-free polishes and top coats because I want my clients to leave with healthy nails, not just pretty ones. - **Education First:** Whether you are coming for a service or a course, I believe you should understand the 'why' behind the 'how.' That is why I teach nail anatomy in my classes. If you understand how a nail grows, you will be much more careful with how you treat it. ## About Urvashi’s Nailbar Hi, I am Urvashi.
