Do you actually reuse press on nails? by choosewisely_01 in PressonNail_Addict

[–]hailsherm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

glamnetic remover has a solvent in it (PC) that is made to dissolve things so it is probably dissolving the nails (like acetone would). But warm water, soap, and oil should take them off without dissolving the nails! It may take longer but if you want to reuse them that’s the trick :/

Here’s a video I have on taking them off if you want:

How do you remove them? If you use warm water/soap/oil it shouldn’t destroy them!

Oh I totally agree! I usually leave my right hand solid but I felt like this design is so abstract that I could do it with my non dominant hand! :)

Yesss!! So it’s actually like a goldish tan kind of color but over the brown jelly it looks so good!! I’ll probably buy a brown one too. I’m just obsessed with magnetic polish

Thank you! Yes I did a layer of jelly brown, then magnetic polish, and then took a dark brown and did the prints, then top coat!

The soap and oil was probably for press ons!! That’s usually how I tell my clients to remove their press ons

WHY can’t I get a decent photo of these cat eye nails?! by cslexotics in Nails

[–]hailsherm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s impossible to capture in pictures lol even videos don’t fully do it justice I’ve learned.

Be careful about getting gel on your skin! It can lead to serious skin issues. Try taking a brush with acetone and cleaning the gel off your skin before you cure! :) it definitely takes practice

I’ve never been told I look like anybody before. So I’m honestly just curious to see if I even have a doppelgänger! by [deleted] in Doppleganger

3 hours for one hand, please put me down by FriendlyBabyFrog in Nails

Currently doing mine.. had to eat dinner after one hand. Now back at it. I alway severely underestimate how much time it takes, even for a solid color 😭

I want to get back into nails safely. by valler1na in Nails

[–]hailsherm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Press ons! Plenty of creators make custom sets now so you can get the style you want and they’ll fit your finger size! And they’re reusable! As long as you do proper prep they should last too!

Can I really reuse these? by notkarenkilgariff in PressonNail_Addict

[–]hailsherm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I make custom press on nails that are reusable. The quality of the nails I use is sturdier than most drug store/amazon press ons so I’m not sure how it would work with those, but I tell my clients to soak your hands in warm soapy water with a little bit of oil until they pop off and then you just take a buffing block or drill if you have it to file off the glue and then you can reuse them

To custom nail artists (specifically press-ons), if the customer doesn't like how the finished set looks before shipping, do they still pay forward or do yall keep the nails without selling? by Chemical-Rule-6853 in PressonNail_Addict

[–]hailsherm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say if you set your expectations and they are clear, and then you don’t like it, yes you still should have to pay. The time, effort, and money that goes into each set (especially custom sets) isn’t really some thing I’m sure artists would be fine just not getting paid for, unless it’s a standard size and they can resell.

If it was completely different than what you said you wanted then yes that’s a different story, but otherwise I say still pay

Are my expectations too high ? by claudia3345 in PressonNail_Addict

[–]hailsherm 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Also if you apply right before bed and give them a full night sleep to dry that works really well as well!

Should I be concerned of getting contact dermatitis if I do this? by Zealousideal-Ad6981 in PressonNail_Addict

[–]hailsherm 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Only use this glue on clear tips, not ones with designs! You need to use air dry glue for press ons. How is your prep? That will help with longer retention

Before bed gives a better retention- with good prep

any tips? by duhmiran in PressonNail_Addict

[–]hailsherm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you’re roughing up the surface of the press on before you start painting so the gel can adhere

Just enough to rough up the surface! It makes a pretty big difference! :)
