Oasis Nail Shaper

Oasis

For classical guitarists or guitarists who play finger style with nails, this nail shaper is a must have tool.

Each of the four foam pads is mounted on a curved hard plastic base that allows the user excellent control to shape their nails just the way they want.

Less aggressive than the normal nail shaping products the Oasis enables you to obtain an excellent playing surface, much better than plain foam shapers.

I have never used a shaper that has done a better job!

Review.

Nail shaping is crucial to playing the classical guitar, the nail having the final contact with the string and the profile and polish of the nail having a real effect on the tone produced.

There are of course many products available for shaping nails including emery paper that can be bought relatively inexpensively from hardware stores. The problem with most files is that constant adjustment of the finger is necessary to get the correct angle and edge, and emery papers need support to file against to be properly effective.

While filing it is easy to lose the idea of the shape and line that is needed.

This Nail Shaper is the perfect answer as it has been carefully thought out to meet the task required.

There are four surfaces and each one has a separate ‘bevel’ or curve that enables the player to create a smooth, continuous sweep when shaping and polishing. Each curve also has a slight spring to it so that the dangers of flat spots and over filing are drastically reduced. It is easy to see what you are doing and the nail remains supported without having to turn the file or twist your hand to get the desired line.

A great tool in the never-ending battle with nails!

String Plates

Tying the strings to the bridge has always posed a number of problems, both in terms of function and aesthetically. Guitar makers have experimented with various solutions over the years, some of them only partial and some extremely complicated. String-Plates solve all such problems, easily and without requiring any modifications to the guitar.

When a string breaks or becomes untied - as often happens with the trebles - it can very easily lash against the soundboard, creating deep grooves in the wood. String-Plates solve this problem, in that even if the knot becomes untied or the string breaks, there is no lash effect on the soundboard.

The very form of the traditional knot changes the angle of the string on the saddle. This angle is very important for the balance of forces at play on the soundboard, and directly affects the sound. With the use of String-Plates this angle is left unchanged, at what is calculated to be the correct angle when the instrument is being built.

The traditional way of tying the strings, though commonly used, covers and damages the design of the cordal block. String-Plates do not damage the cordal block or interfere with its design.

FlexiNail nail conditioner

No more DRY, PEELING, CRACKED or BRITTLE nails!

Welcome to STRONG, HEALTHY-LOOKING nails!

If you have nice nails now FlexiNail will make them look better.

If you have dry, brittle, cracking, splitting or peeling nails....

After FlexiNail, you won't.

FlexiNail is a penetrating nail conditioner that stimulates healthy looking fingernail growth.

FlexiNail is NOT a temporary "hardener" product and does NOT involve applying fake nails.

Most conditioning oils don't penetrate - they just sit on top of the nail. They absorb into the cuticle - but not into the nail itself.

For a conditioner to be effective - it has to get into the nail which is made of alpha keratin and very different in composition from the skin. Without a penetrating formulation, the ingredients can't penetrate to the nail matrix and you're wasting your time.

FlexiNail Suggested Usage:

Brush on FlexiNail at least once a day to the nail, cuticle, base and underside (extending past the finger) of each nail. Brush on a thin coat as you would apply a nail polish and let it sit for a few minutes if possible. Then, simply massage in any excess solution with your thumb and finger. There is no need to wipe off any excess solution.

FlexiNail is most effective when applied to clean nails that have been dry for at least one hour. If possible, apply FlexiNail before other creams or lotions you may use. When first starting to use FlexiNail or if your hands are frequently in water, apply two or more times daily if possible (or at night and let it completely be absorbed).

FlexiNail Fungus Relief for Toes Usage: Simply brush on FlexiNail Fungus Relief for Toes as you would a nail polish. Apply to each of you nails daily (two to three times a day if possible). It will not harden on the nail, so leave it on for a few minutes if you can and then simply wipe away or rub in any excess. You will experience better results if you apply to nails that have been out of water for an hour - so try not to apply after a bath or shower if possible.

How long does FlexiNail take to work?

The short answer is, it depends how bad your nails are to start.

Initial cuticle results will begin to be noticeable almost right away and within a few short days you will likely notice other changes as well. Full results, however, will NOT happen overnight (be very cautious about any product that claims it can). The best (sustainable) results occur when the nail matrix (the source of new nail growth under the cuticle) absorbs the conditioner complex. This new nail growth then has FlexiNail from the very start. It then takes several months for it to completely grow out to the end of your fingertip (finger nails tend to grow about 0.1 mm per day). Once you get through this initial period of getting that new growth to the end of your finger, your patience will be rewarded with nails that are dramatically improved.

Do I have to wait for it to grow out to see results or does it improve the nail that is already there when I start applications?

It will improve the nail that is already there, but it is far more effective and easier to have the nail under the cuticle form with FlexiNail from the start, than

trying to dramatically change a nail that is already in bad shape.
