MMA - Methyl Methacrylate Acrylic

A word about MMA ... and what's that you say?

For those of you who wear acrylic nails, MMA is a type of acrylic, usually used in discount salons. Methyl Methacrylate Acrylic (MMA) is dangerous, it's illegal to use this product in several states, unfortunately Illinois is not one of them....but we're working on it. Reputable salons and spas use a much more refined product called Ethyl Methacrylate Acrylic. The more refined acrylic is far more expensive...hence you probably won't find "good" acrylic nails for twenty bucks.

Discount salons that use carpenter's tools to drill your natural nail and MMA to build your artificial nail offer you a "cheap" acrylic but they are not doing you any favors, this product can damage your natural nail permanently!! MMA eats down through your nail and grabs hold of your nail. If you do something that causes you to "snap" your nail....opening car doors is a notorious nail snapper ... you could pull your entire fingernail right off. MMA nails rarely come off by themselves ... that's because it's embedded in your nail, if the MMA comes off -- your nail is going to come off!! This product is the same stuff that they use to glue linoleum to the underflooring...do you really want that on your fingernails? For more information about MMA see http://www.beautytech.info/articles/nmc7-01.htm. Even if you don't patronize our spa....please, please, please go to a place that uses a reputable product. This is your health we're talking about here, we don't want you to lose your natural nails even if you aren't our client.
