Skin peeling around cuticles post-manicure

I might get a manicure maybe 2 or 3 times a year - it’s just too much effort to do the upkeep to ensure that that there aren’t any chips in the nail polish. What I do find is that about 2 days post manicure, the skin around the cuticles starts to peel badly - what can I do to prevent this?

Here are pictures to illustrate my point :frowning:

Ouch. You shouldn’t get your cuticles trimmed anyways, it’s not good.

I’d apply cuticle oil regularly to keep them moisturised.

Re: Skin peeling around cuticles post-manicure

i think this is called hangnails…:halo:
happens to me mostly due to lace of moisture or using detergents without putting gloves on..

Re: Skin peeling around cuticles post-manicure

Those are my own nails - I’ve never had acrylic nails done.

Yes, they are hangnails - but I’m trying to address the cause of the hangnails. This only happens to this degree and severity after I’ve gotten a manicure.

Make sure they don't bother your cuticles the next time you go in. I don't ever come across this issue but it seems like the peeling might be because of that.
