if you don’t have silk wraps you can tear a really small part off a tissue (tissues have normally two or four layers, only use one layer) and apply it on the broken part right after nail glue, then when it dries you can file down any bumps/tissue parts and apply regular nail polish! i think it’s easier to only apply the “patch” where it’s needed instead of having to cover the entire nail

I’m curious why you buffed over your clear gel before adding a top coat gel...? I thought it wasn’t necessary to buff clear/builder gel before adding gel polish (as long as u leave the inhibition layer) ....? So I guess the other part of the question, is, why did u remove the inhibition layer and then buff for polish application? Was there a secondary reason u were bugging the gel? Or am I just wrong on the proper application techniques (which is entirely possible 😅)?
@abetweene5 жыл бұрын
I remove the inhibition layer so the sticky uncured gel doesn’t transfer onto my file and I used the file to shape the overlay that i created. when you simply paint gel on layer by layer, it actually adds height and dimension. So, I want to streamline that shape before adding polish so the nail doesn’t become bulky and look like a chicklet rather than elongated and natural.

because the multiple layers of gel that we paint on for structure create a shelf, like a stack of paper. theyre relatively flat and uniform, but in order for the fix to work (meaning withstand use or pressure in our daily life) we must mimic the natural curvature of the nail. that curvature includes C curve and an apex. they give a natural appearance AND function otherwise the nail would break again easily.

If you use a good quality clear gel, that doesn't lift its is my personal favorite. But you should never use superglue on your body or nails. Nail glue is only $2-5 at most. Get some.

+abetweene . What do you mean by resin?
@abetweene9 жыл бұрын
+Elaine Kay Its very similar (if not the same) as nail glue. It comes in an applicator bottle or you can brush it on. Its generally used for silk wrap nails. The one I have is this: oceannails2.storenvy.com/products/10283457-brush-on-resin

Kecia Fitts The silk wrap just acts as a mesh or tape to unify the two split areas into one "sheet". And the gel reinforces it by building more strength.

Kecia Fitts You could try it but cloth is woven so its much stronger than paper.

Can I just put the gel top coat and not use the lamp?!???
@abetweene9 жыл бұрын
without the lamp the gel doesn't dry, so you have to cure it.

I did it but the next day my nail started hurting so much. Every time I touch my nail it hurts and I don’t know why is like that. Can someone help me?
@abetweene7 жыл бұрын
Some discomfort can be expected as the gel is holding your nail in a c curved position stronger than regular nail polish which its likely not accustomed to. If the pain persists please remove the gel and/or see a doctor if you have concerns.
