What is the purpose of a nail primer?

The purpose of a nail primer is to improve the adhesion of products before nail enhancements are applied. This step is crucial in the preparation of the natural nail surface, as it creates a better bonding surface for products like acrylics, gels, or other enhancements. By enhancing adhesion, the primer helps to ensure that the enhancements last longer and reduces the risk of lifting or peeling.

Using a primer can significantly increase the durability and longevity of nail enhancements by allowing them to adhere more effectively to the natural nail. This is particularly important in a professional setting where the longevity of the service is a key factor in client satisfaction.

Other options, such as removing nail polish, moisturizing the nails, or adding color to natural nails, do not align with the primary function of a nail primer. These actions relate to different aspects of nail care and enhancement preparation but do not encompass the specific role of promoting adhesion in nail enhancements.
