You have changed my life with this video! I also suffer from severe gel polish allergies. Thank you a thousand times for your contribution to KZbin. ❤

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

Awww… this made my day. I am so glad to have helped a fellow gel allergy sufferer. I appreciate you being here and watching. Thank you!

[@mewdyjewdy9759]

This is the best glue EVER. In my honest opinion. I only wear press ons now. With regular nail glue, I would have reapply nail glue constantly because they would pop off. I decided to try this glue, my nails stayed in place for 3 weeks. No lifting, no popping off. It was $15 at Sally’s beauty supply. A little goes a long way. I definitely plan to buy two more tubes to keep in my nail bin.

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

Yes! It’s an absolute game changer! I may have bought a back up tube (or two) myself. I never want to be without it!

[@Altair.O.B]

Does anybody know how to get it from Spain? I’m desperate!!

[@momofschnauzers]

After a severe allergic reaction, resulting in nasty NASTY nails (layers peeled off, some almost back to the cuticle), I felt so defeated as nails seem actually help my self-confidence. Your video is exactly the hope I was needing. Thank you Jess for taking the time to produce this video and help many of us who are looking for alternatives that actually work. ♥

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

You are so welcome Bonnie! I have been using this glue with full coverage tips for almost 2 years now with absolutely no issues. I am so glad to help!

Hi Jess ... just a quick follow-up. The DD Fastbond glue does not appear to be available in Canada. I've checked Sally's, Amazon, other beauty supply outlets and even sent an email to Dashing Diva (no they did not respond). Anyway, after researching, there are a few commercial gel glues that have the exact ingredients as the "official nail glues" so I tried the gorilla gel and it totally works with no reaction either. Just wanted to let you know.

This looks so easy, just ordered mine yesterday, can't wait to try it. I started using a nail lamp & polygel works ok , but this looks easier. Thanks for the info.❤

[@michellemsaylor]

I just applied my full cover tips with this glue. Not as neatly as you did, lol! It got easier with each nail! Thanks for this video!

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

It definitely gets easier with practice. My first application was not so pretty. There is some trial and error with knowing how much glue to use and how long to hold the tip in place. Once you get the hang of it though… game changer. I literally can get all 10 tips on in less than 10 min. It’s a beautiful thing.

[@barbboran4567]

FYI I went to order the fast bond and couldn’t find it on the dashing diva link nor the Amazon link. The Amazon link says it’s unavailable. Also the tips you suggested say they are acrylic/gel so not sure about them either. I believe I may be allergic to gel too so looking for alternatives as well. Great video.

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

Yes, when I posted this video they were available in both places. Now I have only had luck finding it at Sally’s Beauty Supply. I was hoping the restock would happen quickly, but has been several months. It is not clear whether the tips are actual gel or if they are plastic/acrylic. However I have had no issues using them as long as o do not apply them using gel products. Also, in general, it is uncured gel that causes the issues with sensitivity/allergies. Any tips like these, the gel is fully cured, so it should be less likely to cause any issues. Thanks for watching ☺️

[@PeggyLeeFever7]

Thanks for the great video. Love the glue placement tip! I’m so excited, all ready have the exact tips and will pick up glue today. I am recovering from a gel allergy. Some nails are still growing out but I’m trying this anyway. Fingertips are so tender without any nail length. 🤞🏻

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

Oh good! Yes, the recovery process was quite frustrating. I hope it has not been too painful for you. I truly hope that these product work as well for you as they do for me.

[@teresabunce6741]

Brilliant video, thank you. Freshly allergic, not happy. I can now use up my gel polish by painting the tips before application. (With gloves)

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

Oh I totally feel your pain. It was awful when I had my first major reaction to gel. It took a lot of time and trial and error to find non-gel products that worked well for me. I’m glad you found this helpful.

[@XxAlyxXtheone]

Hi! Thanks so much for the video❤️🙏Can you make a video about removing this particular glue without damaging the press on nails and your own natural nails?❤

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

I personally don’t know that there is a way to remove press-ons when using this glue without damaging them. Simply because the only way I know how to remove it without damaging your natural nail is with acetone and acetone will destroy your press-ons. If you want to be able to reuse press-ons, your best bet is adhesive tabs.

[@rayshaboykin477]

Jess, do you do fills or do you completely remove the set and do a new one? I’m allergic to gel too and wondering what a fill would look like with this method? I know it can be done with clear dip but wish there was another way 😊

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

I have only ever done a fill with clear dip. I just use my e-file to remove any lifting first. The only other way I can think would work is clear acrylic with monomer which I do no have any experience with.

[@dreadfullydaintynails]

[@NicoleWing]

Hy Jess, I got all my supplies and watched your video yesterday, and applied the full coverage tips. I still have a few questions as I'm still learning and may have missed the info in the video. When I apply the nail, I press down, and then some of the glue comes out so I clean it up. But then, when I lift up on the nail, I see some big bubbles. Did I apply too much pressure? I applied enough pressure to get the glue to the end but then when I lift up I see the bubbles. Do you just reapply with more glue? Or am I supposed to hold the nail on my natural nail a lot longer? Another question is how do you remove the nail I have one that has lots of bubbles so I want to remove it and start over. Do you file down or acetone? When you need to do a fill, do you completely remove or fill in with builder gel or something similar? Thanks so much for such an informative video!!! I love the look of these nails on me so far!!

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

Hi, thank you for watching. Yes, I try not to apply too much pressure , but when I first apply the nail I hold it for about 15-20 seconds to ensure the the glue holds. For removal, I clip down the length, file the nail to rough up the surface and then I use acetone soaked pads with foil wrapped around my fingers and put them under a heating pad to warm up the acetone. This is the fastest removal process I have found.

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

If I need to fill, I file off any lifting, than I apply 2 coats of dip base (allowing them to each dry), then buff smooth. If need be, I will fill with clear dip powder. I do not use builder gel as I have a gel allergy, but that is an option if you are not allergic.

[@carolyndurant8413]

It is so simple which is why I fell in love. They do soak off. I actually use the magic remover from Double Dipped to remove mine and it works really well. My skin does not like prolonged soaks in acetone (even with coconut oil).

I have not been able to get the glue on the Dashing Diva site for a long time, but it is available through Sally’s Beauty. That’s where I have been ordering from. Yes, I remove mine using acetone. I use Fast Foils that I get off Amazon. Removes in about 15 minutes. So sorry for the late reply.

[@meesh62]

How long did these last for you with this glue? I just read on their site in one of the reviews that she got 5 days and I was wondering if there was any way it would go longer.

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

I got almost 2 weeks out of my last set and honestly only removed them because of some staining from a dip powder I had used and so I could film this tutorial. I probably could have gone another week. I personally believe that a really thorough nail prep is key to really good adhesion.

[@stacy.does.dipnails]

The gelly tips don't seem to give me a reaction. I just ordered the glue though. 🙂 Thanks for the recommendation ❤️❤️

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

That’s great! It was tough to know if the gelly tips contributed at all to my issues, so I just decided to play it safe. You are so welcome! I think you will love the glue.

[@chelseashift]

Do you have trouble with the thumb taking a long time to glue? How do you do it?

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

I don’t have issues with the thumbs drying. I just make sure to wait about 10 minutes for all to dry before moving on with my mani.

[@liyahb5567]

So the cuticle bit doesn’t hurt? I’m scared to use it lol

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

The Diamond ball cuticle bit does not hurt. Just remember to use it only at lower speeds. I generally don’t go over 6 or 7k RPMs. Also keep the bit constantly moving. Do not hold it in one spot for long because it can cause friction and it could cut your skin that way.

[@houseofobatala]

Is nail dip mandatory? Can I leave them bare ? I would like to just go straight into nail polish.

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

Dip is definitely not mandatory. If you prefer, you can just apply the base coat, then the top coat, apply the chrome and then top coat again to protect the chrome.

[@laurafaulk6822]

How do I remove the tips (applied with Fast bond and used dip powders) so I can reuse the tips?

[@FragaliciousNailsbyJess]

I do not reuse my tips. I use them as extensions and apply peel base so that I can redo my dip powder, but my tips remain on my nails until I have to redo them. I am not sure there is a way to remove them and be able to reuse the tips. If you want to use your tips and reuse them, it’s better to use press on tabs with just a little glue around the edges. Then you should be able to soak in warm soapy water to remove them.

[@nellylavarreda3507]

How long do they stay on with the glue?
