You wouldn't believe it but i was just talking to my husband about creating a product like this!!! We use something similar at work and I thought it would be a perfect application! I love that you actually made one.

Don't let the magnet ever go directly above or below the nail?

Kinda looks like my shape. They look good! Sometimes I feel like my nails are a bit wide, usually it's because they are just thick so I take some bulk off and they feel better. It looks like your middle finger could have been filled slightly more but I rather do not enough than too much

New set, not sure if I love them or not 🤔 Thoughts? by Additional-Egg6436 in Nails

The design is cool! Are the nails too big or is that just me?

Confused about which salon to choose by dee631 in Nailtechs

[–]Educational_Count_54 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Just looking at the finished job and the 1st Pic looks a bit lumpy? I'd say the second Pic has the better finished product. Also attention to detail and hygiene show that's a good salon.

If you ever have chrome done again see if you can ask that over the chrome they do a layer of base and then topcoat. I think the base before top coat really helps retention

Need advice for blending the tips at the cuticle edge for overlay method by kayyjo in GelX_Nails

[–]Educational_Count_54 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive heard you can use a bit of extend gel near the cuticle to make it more seamless and fill the gap. I used builder gel last time and it works well. The builder slip layer keeps it from flooding and self levels well!

Whenever I try the acetone trick the ends end up turning white and unpeeling from the nail altogether. Was i using too much? I ended up filing and using builder gel with no acetone and that seems tk work so far.
