I recently had my nails done for the first time ever. (about two weeks ago) Well, last friday one of my nails broke at work (McDonalds) and I just took it completely off and threw it away. Was I supposed to save the nail? I don't mean to sound stupid but I don't have much experience in nails. I know I had a had french manicure and used the gel. also, do I go in to have my nails fixed every so often? I heard that you do but I'm a little confused.
Please, any information you guys can give will really help.
signed,
nailed confusion.

You should go every two weeks to get your nails filled. What the nail technician does is fill in the area that has grown out with new acrylic and replaces any severely lifting nails (the back part of your acrylic lifting away from your real nail). Don't go too long without getting your nails filled. If your acrylic starts to lift, moisture and bacteria could get underneath your acrylics and cause infection.
