3 Tips On How To Apply Color Street Nail Strips

[@carolbeck8158]

I NEVER take off the plastic to begin with. It’s like a super floppy contact lense!! I MOUNT the first side to the nail, THEN remove the plastic. This method is so great because if you DO need to reposition the strip, the plastic is a sturdy anchor. I snip off the free end (both the plastic AND the strip,) and continue on with the demonstration. Thanks for this neat clean video. For a first time beginner for certain, leave on the plastic so it isn’t flopping all over the place…and for CERTAIN start with a glitter set. They have a much needed backbone!

You just got me through this and I have zero ability for anything like this normally -love it.

[@djondjon]

Your videos are very well done. They have not only good content, but also great visual quality. Professional job!

[@shirleymortensen3166]

Thank you for helping me how to apply the nail sheet polish. You made it look easy ☺️

[@merrymastropietro7944]

I just tried my first set of a glitter and I was like .... this is hard.. then I went on line and found you. Thanks so much. You are a fantastic teacher. Mine look ok, but I know when I do them again I watch you again and they will look better. You give us so much information. Again....thank you. Meredith Mastropietro from Sarasota,Florida.

[@melissahaole8105]

Yay, I'm so glad my video helped. Have a wonderful evening :)

[@midwestbadger2503]

Mine never turn out this well ☹️ Thank you for these tips. I'm going to give it another try!

[@carolbeck8158]

Do your nails happen to have a kind of upside down bandy corn shape??? Those need to have the nail strip pre-trimmed, and carefully observe which end and center the middle of the strip you are applying is. The nail strips that are straight up and down to me actually look prettier because it gives the illusion that the nail is slender and straight. There will be a tiny piece of bare nail showing. Try it both ways (this trick looks best with BOLD colors

[@melissaknight4533]

I love Moon River so pretty!

[@queenearth1031]

Thanks for sharing. Looks super easy.

[@corinnemaynard2824]

Would you do a video showing what the green solids look like with the clear and gold overlay? I'm havin a party and have a lot of packer fans!! I just realized these two can go together for fans today.

[@Sara-KA]

can you do color street fall collection

[@alysonphoenix3080]

These Moon River are so Pretty!

[@GrammyTapDancing]

How true only glitters plus they last longer. I get 3 wks at least. As the grow out from cuticles, they still look great

[@tinadalasinski5282]

Very pretty

[@cherylhunter8063]

Love this color. Definitely need to order it soon!

[@mariahines4025]

Where u get that and what story for color street I can’t fine it

[@megankevane6406]

Super helpful, thank you for answering my questions. :)

[@suzettekendal6063]

One of my favorite sets.

[@cynthiajones8066]

Can you apply these nail strips with nail hardener on your nails?

[@GrammyTapDancing]

It's difficult if you have very short thin nails but I still manage to stay on for at least 3 wks. They still look pretty grown out from cuticles . Sparkle ones last longer. Takes practice

[@WaterBottleBlues101]

Thank you! What a wonderful shade of blue/gray. I hope Moon River never gets discontinued. Get tips as well.

[@melissahaole8105]

I love this shade too. Fingers crossed it stays around for a long time. Thank you for watching my videos.

[@DizzyTris]

Gorgeous color!

[@pamllogan]

Great set!

[@petradavis4251]

Love love love it!

[@sewgeek1546]

Wish I had watched this before putting on my first set. Mine tore too short & look like I have tip wear on day 1. Also my sides & tops are all wrinkled. What am I doing wrong?

[@carolbeck8158]

Try leaving the plastic strip ON, then gently stretch it along the sides to the top.

[@Karen-ld4fo]

Gorgeous!

[@colleencorr-panek1064]

I LOVE glitters. I'd love you to do a video of a solid with cannes fetti over it or home sleet home!

[@melissahaole8105]

That one is already in the works. :) Great minds :)

[@colleencorr-panek1064]

@@melissahaole8105 yessss! I love home sleet home and I think it going over a solid would look awesome, a frosted look!!

[@asnaydarraidolopezperez6434]

Yes

[@wharper3640]

Could you do one with tips for those of us with wider nail beds? TIA!

[@melissahaole8105]

Thank you for watching my video. My most current video talks about wide nail bed and how you might use what I call the "sloppy method" to make it work. :) You are welcome to watch it at. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2erf4iLn9ifn6c

[@jeanetteyork2582]

Hi Melissa! Great video! I seem to have lost my FB connection...please resend me the link!! 🌷

[@melissahaole8105]

Hi Jeanette, my Facebook group is facebook.sassygirlnails.com Thank you for watching! :)

[@ramonarueschemberg5086]

Did you say you have a video showing how to repair a nail using glue? If so, could you text the link to me, please?

[@Karen-ld4fo]

Glitters are the best!

[@leftylucy818]

Have you tried cutting down/trimming the larger polish strips so you can use all of them?

[@melissahaole8105]

Hi Kim, I haven't cut the largest one but I have cut them before to fit my 5 yr olds little fingers (she loves mommies leftovers). If you are going to cut yours I recommend taking off the clear protective cover first, it's really hard to take off later. Thank you for watching my videos!

[@Terriesbuggin]

thats what i do

[@Godivahair]

Can I use this product if I have no free edge?

[@melissahaole8105]

Hi, thank you for watching. Yes, if your nails don’t extend past your finger you could use a nail file or a wooden cuticle stick to remove the excess.

[@barbarat5729]

I wish someone would tell me how to keep them from IMMEDIATELY coming off my tips. I'm obsessed with the rose gold glitter, but it keeps coming off the tips!

[@carolbeck8158]

Are the strips too warm? Or too cold?? They need WARMTH AND Pressure….and did you clean the nail bed by prepping with the alcohol? It takes a while to get it just right. Don’t give up! If they are still acting up you can top coat and “seal” the ends with a clear glass/shellac going over the ends just a bit

[@GrammyTapDancing]

I keep a set on my thin frail nails for almost 3 weeks and when I do mine I do them later in the day and I don't wash my hands again unless I have to wear gloves to do dishes and because they still cure & need to seal overnight when you go to bed. They dont seal or cure until morning. That 1st day is important once you get those stuck on your nails do not emerge your fingers in any kind of water till the next day I hope this helps

[@annelanteigne6607]

You can cut it with a pair of scissors so it doesn't pinch and good for the other nail. ❤

[@vindadsk8ting]

You can use the left over piece for the other hand instead of crinkling it all up and throwing it away.

[@glorialauderdale5341]

Why wouldn't you use nail clippers to get a clean cut

[@nancyh9125]

If the strip is wider than your own nail, hard to trim to size.

[@melissahaole8105]

Hi Nancy, I'm sorry our sizing isn't perfect for you. I have a few customers in the same boat and they love the glitters and solids because they will can apply then horizontally to get the width they need an remove the excess from the side. I hope that tip is helpful for you.
