Fibreglass or Chinasilk?

“Fibreglass or Chinasilk?”

Written on: 07/07/2011

So false nails are all the rage but with so many different techniques out there it's hard to know which method is the best to choose. If you are looking for something natural then most salons suggest fibreglass nail extensions. However, what about china silk extensions?
China silk extensions work in the same way as fibreglass extensions. They have the same benefits for the nails, beings breathable and generally kinder than other methods. But their general appearance is quite different from the look that fibreglass gives. China silk extensions have a high gloss finish even when not painted. They lay even better than fibreglass over natural nails with no tip giving a healthy extra layer of strength to the nails. Having worn them both on holiday at work and on a day to day basis I would definately say they are a lot more durable than fibreglass extensions as the overlay has more flexibility. So next time your going for a manicure, ask for chinasilk extensions!
