What issues may arise with artificial nails during hot weather?

Artificial nails can be affected by temperature and humidity, causing specific challenges, especially during hot weather. The correct response indicates that high temperatures can lead to an increased risk of lifting and swelling.

In hot weather, the heat can cause the artificial nail materials to expand. As they expand, they may not properly adhere to the natural nail, leading to lifting. Additionally, moisture in the air can weaken the bond between the artificial nails and the natural nails, further increasing the likelihood of separation. This can also lead to trapping moisture underneath the artificial nails, which might cause fungal or bacterial growth.

While decreased shine, faster drying time, and better adhesion may seem plausible, they do not capture the primary concerns related to artificial nails during hot weather. Decreased shine is more often related to wear and tear rather than temperature, and faster drying times are typically a factor when discussing the application process rather than the behavior of the nails post-application. Better adhesion is also not likely in hot conditions due to the changes in the materials and moisture compromise.
