Pressons

Pressons are a type of artificial nail that can be temporarily adhered to natural fingernails. They are typically made from materials such as plastic, acrylic, or gel. Pressons come in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, colors, and designs, offering a quick and easy way to achieve a desired nail look without the need for professional application or the time commitment of growing natural nails.

Application methods for pressons generally involve using adhesive tabs or nail glue. Adhesive tabs provide a less permanent bond and are often considered easier to remove. Nail glue creates a stronger bond, which can result in longer wear but may require more effort during removal. Proper preparation of the natural nail, such as cleaning and buffing, is often recommended for optimal adhesion and longevity of the pressons.

Pressons are a popular choice for cosmetic purposes, allowing individuals to experiment with different nail styles for special occasions, everyday wear, or as a temporary solution between professional manicures. They are readily available in drugstores, beauty supply stores, and online retailers. Removal typically involves soaking the nails in warm water, nail polish remover, or specialized presson removal solutions, depending on the adhesive used.
