Abstract

The article examines the role of advanced dry manicure techniques in reconceptualizing nail services as an intervention with demonstrable health-promoting potential and controllable quality parameters. The combination of rapid market growth, the high prevalence of onychopathies, and persistent infectious and chemical risks associated with classical wet manicures and inadequate hygiene in salon environments underscores the relevance of the study. The aim of the work is a theoretical and analytical substantiation of the potential of dry manicure to reduce the overall risk profile and enhance the predictability of aesthetic outcomes. The novelty lies in a risk-oriented synthesis of data from dermatology, microbiology, toxicology, occupational health, and market analytics, which enabled the description of advanced dry manicure as a technological standard that disrupts the chain of water, maceration, unstable permeability, and infectious risk. It is shown that abandoning water maceration, implementing multilevel antisepsis, standardized hardware, and combined protocols, as well as restorative care, contributes to the preservation of barrier structures, reduction of microtraumatization, stabilization of the interaction between the nail plate and coatings, and the formation of sustainable client loyalty while simultaneously decreasing occupational risks for technicians. The article will be helpful to nail service technicians, salon managers, training center methodologists, and specialists in related dermatological and hygiene-oriented fields.
