What is SNS?

Signature Nail Service is a type of manicure that involves repeated dipping of your nails into a colored powder that hardens into a matte finish on your nail. It’s fairly new to the nail salon world and is currently only available in a limited number of salons. It does not require a primer or UV light, and is a healthier alternative to shellac or gel manicures.

Are dip nails as strong as acrylic?

Dip Powder is here to help you solve all those problems. It's stronger than gel, lasts like acrylics, doesn't need a light, and won't ruin your nails. It's the nail Revolution you've been waiting for. The two types of manicures women get most often in a salon are gel polish or acrylic manicures.

What is Dip Powder?

Dip powder (also known as SNS, for the brand Signature Nail Systems) nails have grown in popularity, but before trying this trendy new service, there's at least one woman warning to proceed with caution. Most dip powders are a combination of a glue-type liquid and powder that hardens when it hits the air, and leaves long-lasting color on your -- nails minus the need for any ultraviolet (UV) lighting to cure or dry. There also isn't the pungent smell that's often associated with gel or acrylic.

What is the difference between acrylic and dip nails?

Dip requires a resin-based agent like super glue, whereas acrylics require a monomer to form the acrylic nails.” A monomer is a chemical liquid that holds the acrylic and the nail together. It poses a strong chemical smell — you know the one as soon as you walk into a salon.

What is manicure?

A manicure is a cosmetic beauty treatment for the fingernails and hands performed at home or in a nail salon. A manicure consists of filing and shaping the free edge, pushing and clipping (with a cuticle pusher and cuticle nippers) any nonliving tissue (but limited to the cuticle and hangnails), treatments with various liquids, massage of the hand, and the application of fingernail polish. When the same is applied to the toenails and feet, the treatment is referred to as a pedicure.
Some manicures include painting pictures or designs on the nails, or applying small decals or imitation jewels. Other nail treatments may include the application of artificial gel nails, tips, or acrylics, which may be referred to as French manicures.
