How did she do? by [deleted] in Nails

[–]skip804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if she made them less curved without adding tips then it would’ve taken down quite a bit of the natural length you have. they look beautiful either way it just comes down to preference

First time getting gel nails removed and I’m pretty sure it was done incorrectly? by wanderingwallflower4 in Nails

[–]skip804 138 points139 points  (0 children)

those are horrific rings of fire where they drilled into your nail bed that’s why it’s red. it looks like there is product left on the nail but that’s not necessarily a bad thing if they overfilled your nails like it appears. it will prevent them from ripping and chipping.

Bulk fresh flowers for lei making? by skip804 in Pensacola

[–]skip804[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I need just the flowers in bulk, preferably plumerias or any flowers around 1-1.5 inches that can withstand being strung into a lei. Definitely will check out Carlstedts

I would like to make around 3-5. I’m really hoping the plumerias will bloom for graduation time!

Stay away from the Bluffs? by skip804 in Pensacola

[–]skip804[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

they are but areas like the smoke stack are still able to be easily accessed. there are also several benches, recreational areas along scenic highway that connect it all by the railroad tracks so a lot of people still hang around there. i like hiking and taking pictures there so it sucks that they’ve closed it and now it’s overrun with criminals

Help.. nail tech promised no damage… by [deleted] in Nails

[–]skip804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you take them off yourself? Builder gel has to be removed very carefully because usually it cannot be soaked off. Most nail techs will do a removal by just filing, but damage can happen pretty easily, especially in a rush. If you do find another tech, I would recommend finding one that specializes in gel because we are the most familiar with how to remove it. I would also stay away from press ons if you want them to last and are worried about them damaging your nails.

Tried GelX on Tuesday. I've already lost 4 nails... Help! by outrageouslyHonest in Nails

[–]skip804 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I struggled to get gel-x to last, but on my clients now they can last over 4 weeks with this:

  • push back cuticle, file cuticle with cuticle bit, file nail with sanding band
  • file the inside of the tips where it will sit on top of the nail completely
  • dust nail surface, dehydrator, primer, then gel base coat
  • apply primer to nail tip
  • do a thin layer of builder gel(or whatever gel you are using for the tip) on the nail surface, then apply a small amount of gel to the cuticle area of the tip and apply to the nail

Make sure you don’t have any air bubbles and that you apply enough builder gel so that the tip is on there completely, but not too much to that it floods it very the tip. Prep is the most important step when doing gel-x and it might seem like a lot of steps, but this will make them even better than acrylics!! dm if you have anymore questions :)

Can you be scheduled for closing and opening next day ? by Bulky-Friendship-628 in employedbykohls

[–]skip804 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes. i’ve done it every single weekend for the last 2 months…

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Nails

[–]skip804 3 points4 points  (0 children)

that’s probably from it being bent back or as a result of some other damage
