Or just any tips in general would be amazing,
Is acrylic better? or should I concentrate on gel nails?
Ive done my first set on myself and they do look good, but could be better.
Thanks a million to anyone who can help!! :)Im teaching myself to appy gel nails, does anyone have any tips on application, products and suppliers?
ok. here is one tip on gel nails. gel is self leveling. so when you apply it, do it in thin coats. making sure to ';tip'; the nail. that means wrap it around the end, free edge. after you apply the gel, turn your hand over, so that the nails are upside down. facing the floor. now keep them level. leave them that way for a few moments, like 20-30 sec. the gel will level out, and be fuller in the middle of your nail, giving you a nice C curve, a natural nail appearance, and won't be all puddled around your cuticle. you should be using a UV lamp, so make sure to cure each coat of gel 1 minute untill you get to the last coat, and cure for 2 minutes. also, when you apply the gel to y our nails, don't be heavy handed. use light strokes, with the brush level with the nail. if you hold your brush up to high then you push too much on the gel. and don't do your nails right after you got done doing the dishes. your nails will absorb moisture and the gel won't adhere as well. good luckIm teaching myself to appy gel nails, does anyone have any tips on application, products and suppliers?
If you really want to learn to do nails properly your best to get proper training from a licensed school or through product training.
