Probably one of the best tutorials I’ve come across. I love the dos and donts and how you emphasized that filing will not make a difference if the app is bad!!! I’ve already watched this 3 times and learn something new each time. I’m hoping I can apply the knowledge on my next set! Thank you!!!

[@TipTopShapeNails]

Thank you so much for watching! I’m glad I could help! I lot of people try to stress too much over shape but if the application is bad, the whole nail was bad to start off with😭 definitely takes a lot of practice!

[@Iama1asupernova]

I’ve been doing nails 30 years and I can tell you that everything you said in this video, is so very correct. Anybody reading this, believe her. She is definitely speaking FACTS! You sound like either you’ve been doing nails quite a while or you went to a really good school and paid attention😊. So I wanted to give you that credit because I’m sure you are a actually a younger nail tech; but coming from an old school nail tech still working in the industry, I can tell that you know what you’re talking about…at least about this subject 😂. Great content! Great examples for people who need that. Great explanation! Sounds like you’d be a great nail educator.

Thank you for this I also had this problem with adding & adding more acrylic to the apex that’s the problem area for me so I’m working on perfecting that, now my sets are definitely looking better Thanks again you are one of the BEST ❤️

Could you possibly do a separate video on how to apply at the cuticle? That's what I struggle with the most

[@reneehill7233]

So how do you ask for this when you go to a nail salon? I have a issue with my nails splitting in half 🙄Like even after a week and a half mine started splitting. I always notice when I go to these nails places they apply a thin layer of acrylic. I never liked thin nails!

[@natashaivelisse6127]

I have issues with the thumb especially 😂

[@TipTopShapeNails]

The thumb is definitely the hardest but not impossible 🥰 you got this!

[@brushnstrokenails6283]

apex may be correct. but that brush is too big and the acrylic should not be runny and falling off like that.

[@sheiskin]

It’s the glasholm glass table top from Ikea. Unfortunately it’s discontinued because of safety complaints. I just called over the weekend asking about it.
