Our Innovations

The modern manicure industry has come a long way since the early 20th century when clear nail polish was invented. This invention allowed people to add color to their nails, and over time, nail art technology has continued to evolve, with various nail art tools and materials being improved and innovated.

 

THE EMERGENCE OF THE NAIL ART INDUSTRY

By the second half of the 20th century, the nail art industry gradually formed an independent industry. In the 1980s, Jeff Pink invented the modern nail polish sleeve, making manicure technology more convenient and durable.

Today, the nail art industry has become a diversified and innovative industry, including a variety of nail art designs, materials, and technologies. At the same time, the nail art industry has also become a career choice for many people, and there are many professional manicurists developing and starting businesses in the nail art industry.

The Emergence of UV Gel

One of the essentials for nail salons is nail gel. Nail UV gels emerged in the late 1990s and early 2000s. UV gel refers to a generally transparent synthetic gel that hardens quickly after being exposed to ultraviolet rays. The gel was originally used in restorative dentistry, but as technology evolved, it began to find use in the nail industry.

This new type of manicure material solved the problem that traditional nail polish is easy to peel off and be damaged, making the manicure effect more durable and long-lasting. At the same time, UV gel also has good transparency and fit, making nail art designs more flexible and diverse.

The Advantages of UV Gel

After 2005, UV gel technology began to gradually emerge in the nail art industry. UV gel can make manicures more durable, shiny, and long-lasting than traditional nail polish. With the continuous development of the nail industry and the advancement of technology, UV gel has been continuously improved and innovated. At the same time, new nail materials such as LED gel have emerged, making nail technology more advanced and convenient.

This necessity has also become one of the most frequently updated and requested items in the nail art industry. Since the color and series of nail polish will change according to seasons, festivals, events, etc., these changes usually take over what is popular at the time. Major updates may come each season (spring, summer, autumn, winter), while limited editions or collections targeting specific trends may be launched more frequently.

In conclusion, the evolution of the nail art industry from clear nail polish to UV gel has revolutionized the industry, making manicures more durable, shiny, and long-lasting. With the continuous development of technology, the nail art industry is expected to continue to innovate and bring new and exciting nail art designs, materials, and technologies to the market.

Nail salon essentials No. 2: UV LED Nail lamp (Nail Dryer)

Nail salon lamps are special lamps designed to cure photosensitive nail art materials, such as UV gel or LED gel. They provide the required UV or LED light source to quickly cure and harden the nail art material in a short time.

The first generation of nail polish lamps appeared in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and the technology at that time was relatively simple. However, with the development of the nail industry and the advancement of technology, nail lamp have been continuously improved and innovated.

In the early 2000s, with the rise of UV gel technology, demand for nail lamps increased dramatically. This period witnessed the rapid development of nail lamp technology. Not only were the power and efficiency of lamps improved, but more advanced LED nail lamps gradually emerged.

In 2007, LED nail lamps were introduced. With the maturity of LED technology, these lamps have begun to be widely used in the nail art industry, replacing some traditional UV lamps, with faster curing speed and longer service life.

In 2010, the Gelish brand was created. Gelish is one of the leading brands in the nail industry, and their products are widely recognized among nail professionals and consumers alike, especially known for their long-lasting gel products.

In 2015, dual-light source UV and LED lamps emerged. These lamps are compatible with both UV and LED light sources, providing manicurists with more choices and flexibility.

As time goes by, nail art dryer lamps are constantly updated. Currently, there are many types and models of nail lamps on the market for manicurists and nail art enthusiasts to choose from. Some multi-functional and intelligent nail lamps have also emerged to meet different needs and improve work efficiency.

WHAT WE THINK ABOUT BASED ON TRENDS

The nail salon industry is constantly evolving, and keeping up with the latest trends is essential for staying ahead of the game. Here are some of the most notable trends in the industry:

1. Healthy and environmentally friendly trend: With the increasing awareness of health and environmental protection, more and more nail salons are beginning to use environmentally friendly nail products, such as water-based nail products, to reduce the impact on the environment.
2. Personalized customized services: Customers are paying more attention to personalized customized service experiences. Nail salons can provide unique manicures designed according to customer needs to meet the aesthetic needs of different customers.
3. Technological innovation and advanced equipment: The nail art industry has introduced advanced technologies and equipment, such as 3D printing technology, electronic nail art robots, etc., to enhance the creativity and accuracy of nail art design.
4. Digital marketing and appointment systems: Many nail salons have adopted digital marketing methods, including social media promotions, online appointment systems, etc., to increase brand awareness and customer satisfaction.
5. Integration of health care and beauty: Some nail salons have begun to provide comprehensive services such as hand skin care and beauty SPA, allowing customers to complete beauty care in one stop.
6. Diversified nail art designs: Nail art designs tend to be diversified, including different styles, patterns, three-dimensional decorations, etc., meeting the needs of customers of different age groups and aesthetics.
7. Professional training and certification: To improve the professional standards of manicurists, many nail salons provide training courses and can also help manicurists obtain corresponding certifications.
8. Green and sustainable development: More and more nail salons are paying attention to sustainable development, choosing to use environmentally friendly materials and adopt sustainable business methods.
9. Online sales and product promotion: Some nail salons have begun selling nail products through online channels, expanding their business scope.

By keeping up with these trends, nail salons can attract more customers and provide better services, ultimately leading to greater success in the industry.

In addition, there are many other nail art products that are also influenced by trends and can increase sales. For example, trends in nail art decorations, such as rhinestones, studs, decals, and ornaments, change relatively quickly. New designs and styles may be introduced several times a year to accommodate fashion trends.

Fake nails, including acrylic nails, can enhance natural nails, especially for those with weak or brittle nails. They can provide extra length, strength, and durability, making them an attractive option. Additionally, they come in many shapes to suit different preferences, such as almond shape, long pointed shape, coffin shape, and more.

When it comes to Fake Nails, the most noteworthy thing to mention is the “press-on nail,” which has seen a resurgence in popularity in recent years thanks to advances in manicure technology, improved adhesive options, and the influence of social media.

Many beauty brands now offer high-quality press-on nails, which provide a convenient and stylish alternative to traditional nail enhancements. Although they have the disadvantage of not fitting the nails or being prone to falling off, they are cheap and convenient enough to make up for it. They can be worn at home, the style can be changed every day, and they can be completed in a few minutes. They will not hurt the skin of the fingers, and they also allow people who are unable to go to a nail salon to enjoy the joy of having beautiful nails. At the same time, they have also created a new group of entrepreneurs, and working from home can bring in some income.

Nail care and treatment products, such as conditioners, strengtheners, and cuticle oils, may have updated formulas based on advances in nail health research. Nail art tools, including brushes, files, and drills, may continue to be updated as manufacturers improve materials and designs. The frequency of major updates is not as fast as previous products, but the innovations and changes in appearance, functionality, and technology are still breakthroughs.

Introducing new application techniques or methods, such as gradients, ombre, or 3D manicures, can lead to the development of new tools and products. Special collections and products for holidays or special occasions, such as Valentine’s Day, Halloween, Christmas, etc., are often updated annually.

These products have helped at least hundreds of people, and nail art wholesalers gain objective profits in the market.

The Evolution of the Nail Lamp:

We need to clarify a concept. The nail art lamp is used to safely and quickly dry nail polish gel. This is its most basic function. If the nail art lamp cannot even achieve this effect, my suggestion is that you need to replace it with a new one. Yes.

On top of this basic function, there are additional functions, such as the feeling of use: no heat, no hotness, no hand injury; performance: less light decay, longer service life, automatic sensing, and time display. Clear; other optional functions: whitening effect, heating function, refrigeration device, whether it is portable, battery or plug-in, appearance decoration, etc.

We have sold many types of nail lamps over the years, from initial appearance innovation to performance guarantees and now to functional overlays.

Iterative Updates of Quality Control:

1. Motherboard: choose a high-quality motherboard, ensure that the motherboard is clean, safe in electricity use (under-voltage, over-voltage, over-current, etc. protection), service life (current limit, battery protection, over-temperature protection), and check that the motherboard function is effective. And durable, the welding is firm and not easy to be damaged.
2. Lamp beads: dual light source lamp beads, UVA and LED, and the wavelength is 365+395nm dual band, without adding phosphor. The finished product is tested with a photometer. The nail lamps used by customers are recalled and the light decay test is performed. Ensure the quality and life of the lamp beads.
3. The shell: non-toxic material, and finished product are subjected to temperature and pressure tests.

The Evolution of the Nail Drill Machine:

Nail polishing machine, the original polishing machine had a large casing. After continuous research and development, the appearance and usability of the polishing machine were gradually improved.

The aspects we update include the following:

1. The appearance should be as small, portable, and beautiful as possible.
2. Functions: 0~30,000 rpm, 35,000 rpm, 40,000 rpm. In fact, there is no need for high rotation speed in actual use; rotation speed display, built-in battery, etc.
3. Improve the feeling of use, improve noise and vibration, and improve the fit of the handle, so that people who use it for a long time will not suffer from allergies, hand pressure, noise, and other problems.
4. Performance: brushed motor to brushless motor, enhanced service life, reduced heat dissipation, etc.
