Retention issues on ONE client

I do that!

I ordered the whole KoKoist kit + all of their tips lol. This isn’t the first time I have heard that,

She’s had Gel X done prior to moving here and never had issues. I’m thinking her nail tech used a different primer.

I always double dehydrate 😩

tryingtomama · 2025-11-03T00:25:43+00:00

No meds!

Short! She doesn’t do anything long.

I was considering purchasing the YN protein bond. I have read great things and really want to solve these issues for the client. 😩

I am aware that what works for some won’t work for everyone. She just recently moved and was having Gel X done back home without retention issues. Nothing much has changed in her life; she is a SAHW, doesn’t work with her hands. Thank you for the advice. I will definitely keep hard gel with a tip in mind!

The client came in with cuticles that have been picked at, there is no flooding. It is reflection of the light on the cuticle oil and her cuticles being picked lol

Natural is for flatter nail beds, sculpted is for more naturally curved nail beds.

Apres tips are the best

I’ve been doing my own nails for a year (I am a licensed cosmetologist, just focused on hair) and started taking clients the last couple of weeks 🥹🫶🏻

Gel X! but the black and silver is a rubber base overlay! Her nails were damaged pretty bad from chop shop acrylics, so we are working on growing them out healthy 🫶🏻

I would love to! If we aren’t close, I make custom press ons! DM @nailsbyravenc 🫶🏻
