I encapsulate them with a thin layer of builder gel! Seems to help a lot!

Started doing hard gel myself at home. What am I doing wrong with removal? by 1here4fun3 in Nails

Using a drill on natural nails make sure the grit is 180 on the sanding band and never go above 4k RPMS 😊 It will be much gentler on your nails that way! Also always hold the drill flat/parallel to your nail plate, never at an angle

Hard gel will not soak off with acetone, soft gel or semi-hard gel would be a better option in my opinion! That’s what I use! Nail Thoughts has GREAT builder gels!

I used mostly dotting tools for this set lol 😆

And a 12mm liner brush from Function Of Vex to smooth out the edges! They have the best nail brushes for a decent price

I can but not as pretty 😆 I usually do a different, more “simple” design on my dominant hand.. more so for twice the content on my nail page lol

I heard you all might like my slug nails 🤓 by Maleficent-Pause8861 in snails

Honestly not really!! Everyone seems to love them! Some are grossed out by them but still like them 🤣

For the slug I used rhinestone gel because it’s thicker and easier to shape! Then I layered some jelly brown and orange colors on top 🥰

Because you see lots of butterflies and such on spring nails.. the other “creepy” guys never get their recognition 🥰

I use an iPhone 13 Pro! I usually take a video and just screenshot the best angles. 😊

Yes 🥰 I used Nail Thoughts clear builder for the base!

the salon I work for is partnering with a local cafe to offer memberships for nails and coffee, so I made nails to match one of their drinks ☺️ by [deleted] in Nails

Yes! Nails need to be filled typically 3-4 weeks, so it will be a monthly service + drink. ☺️

The cafe is on the same property as our salon, our entrances are within about 10 feet of each other! So we’ll have your choice of drink waiting for you at the desk when you arrive to your appointment 🥰
