If you have a pack of 'old' nail wraps that you find them to be a bit too stiff or difficult to apply, we have just the best hack for you! Nail wraps are designed for easy application, but sometimes they can lose their flexibility after being exposed to air for too long. 

Fortunately, we have found the following to be effective methods to soften your opened nail wrap packs and make them easier to work with. Here are a few tried-and-tested techniques to restore their softness, ensuring a much easier application each time! 

Use a Hair Dryer

One of the quickest and most effective ways to soften nail wraps is by using a hair dryer. Here’s how to do it:

• Set Your Hair Dryer to Low Heat: Turn on your hair dryer and set it to a low heat setting. Avoid using high heat, as this can soften the nail wrap quicker than you'd like it to.

• Hold It at a Safe Distance: Hold the dryer about 10-15cm away from the nail wraps to prevent overheating.

• Warm Up the Wraps: Move the dryer back and forth over the wraps for about 10-15 seconds, focusing on the areas that seem the stiffest. The gentle heat will soften the material, making it more pliable and easier to apply. 
  
  
• Applying The Nail Wraps: Stick the nail wraps on to your nail bed. It helps to re-blow the nail wraps to soften the sides a bit more as well, or as you deem necessary for the application.

Store Properly

To prevent your nail wraps from stiffening after opening, proper storage is key:

• Keep Them in a Sealed Bag: After using a few wraps, place the remaining wraps in an airtight bag or container. This minimizes air exposure, helping to maintain their flexibility for longer.

• Avoid Humidity: Store your nail wraps in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Humidity can affect the wraps' quality, so a climate-controlled environment is ideal.
