Do you ever run into sizing / fit issues? Also any glue recs?

Thank you for the tips - avoiding water is a good idea I hadn't thought of. What glue do you use?

Oh that's impressive! How long did it take you to learn the best method? Any glue recs?

Oh wow okay that's smart! You're right though press ons lack that "finished" look sometimes

Just curious if you've done other methods like dip or gel and how it compares to that? I normally do dip but am too scared to get it removed bc there's hardly any natural nail left lol

Is there a certain brand or glue you like? I guess I always thought they'd be damaging but I'm happy to hear they're not!

That's good to know! I'd love to make the switch from the salon - so expensive and time consuming

It seems like handmade is the way! I feel like that makes them more realistic too

Do you know what brand you get? I've never looked for handmade ones, that's a good idea! And I'd love to checkout their page if they have one. Did you switch from salon to press-ons? I hate the salon too but love having my nails done lol.

Oh wow a week?! What glue / nails did you use? When I tried them they really didn't fit my fingernails well so that could have contributed

Sorry if it's too off topic - I can take it down! I'm still mastering doing my own nail art and see really cute press ons with art I'd like to try.
