In the early stages, they can be clear. The thumb could have started out as "mechanical damage" (she did say she bent it back). The a bacteria or fungus can settle in there if the area is not treated. The once that nail plate is detached from the nailbed, a fungal infection can easily take hold. And yes, it can spread to the other nails. It's hard for us to tell what it is through cyberspace of course, but if it is a fungal infection, this is what I'd do: Tell her to go see her doc. (yes, she probably will not want to do that, but you have to tell her to do that to CYA) Once it is established that her nail is not seriously bad, she needs to use Dr. G's on ALL of her nails so they don't continue to cross contaminate. Enhancements on a fungal infection? Not recommended. Once you see a definitive line across the nail bed where it's detached and attached, depending on how far down it is, you may be able to have an enhancement on the nail. As long as she is using the Dr. G's on all the nails, she should be able to wear enhancements on them. I hope this helps if not for this client, perhaps in the future.

It is just lifted from the nail bed from the free edge half way up the nail.

I use YN but recently have switched to Entity. The last time she came in her thumb nail was curling under the free edge and was lifting away from the nail bed. I asked her if she had any recent trama to the nail and she said not that she knew of, but a few days later she said that she bent it back doing laundry. Now her pointer finger on the same hand is doing the same thing. Could this be an allergic reaction to something that I am using? I have soaked off a few times and did new sets on her at her request over the year. Could this be a reaction to acetone? I want to take them off and give her a break for awhile until her thumb and pointer grow out, but she's telling me that she doesn't want to be without her nails. I don't want this problem to get any worse. Please, can anyone offer me some advice? Thank you in advance.
