[@sherrywortman2267]

Awesome video. Such great content. I am retired and I'm looking for something to keep me busy and make a little fun money. I'm not a nail technician just someone that does my own gel nails at home and while watching tutorials about doing your nails at home I came across the press on nail business. I love doing my nails and my only complaint is gel lasts so long and I want to try something new and I have no one to work on. So doing press on nails is perfect. I am a perfectionist so this video helped me a lot, it's not as easy as slapping on some polish and posting it for sale as many probably think, like I did before your video. So thank for teaching me the right way of doing press on nails.

The spray paint thing isn’t a bad idea, if you have an airbrush for airbrushing nails anyway. Don’t feel dirty about it. I know that there are some companies that actually make airbrush UV gel. I love your idea of lining up the nail tips holders because I’ve been doing them only 3 at a time. As for shellac lamps, the new ones have pop off bottoms which are so great. We used them last year in nail school and I loved it so much I bought one . Thank you for such great information.

[@dawngallegos5396]

Not to step on toes here, but complete removal of gel or acrylic enhancements are not necessary to place prioress on nails. In fact, its best to protect natural nail from rips and tears by layering a THIN layer on natural nail first. Key is to not have smoothness or shine. Rough up the gel or acrylic and then glue press on to that.

[@nikolereyes91]

I started the whole press on thing like a month ago. I'm really frustrated because I just found you as a supplier. But you definitely made it to my top supplier for my next restock shopping!! ❤ good vibes

[@wildflowersnails]

YAS, get those kids boarding nails LOL. I taught my daughter at Fashion Week once, she was a pro lol.

[@yourfavebbs6564]

Lauren Wireman When you board nails, do you board a full 22 nail set and remove the ones you don’t need per order, or are you only boarding the sizes you need? Hope that makes sense.

I tried the spray paint thing, definitely didn't work. I used matte spray paint because I figured it would make the gel polish adhere better. I ended up having to put a thick layer of base coat on to get the polish to do anything other than peel like tape. When removing the emulsion layer the base had to be thick or spray paint was removed from any small openings in the base coat. I decided to go with acrylic paint when needed instead (for the photography design sample nails)

[@kathyherskovits7140]

did you put topcoat before you spray or after? did you figure out why the spray didn't work out?

[@destyneedreher3303]

Thank you so much for all of this info it is SO helpful!! I can’t wait to start offering this to my clients!

[@annaarellano8241]

Just wanted to add a side note: The box comes with Two of #4, #5 and #6...I ended up confusing myself because you said you send out only 24, but I don’t think you realized the sprig comes with two #6’s. So I rewatched the video and followed the order you listed when you first showed us the cut out cardboard you use in which you did not add the #6 four times. Hope this helps everyone 😀

[@shaylynnie]

Okay so I’m here for this part, but this is a little confusing lol. What numbers do you use when boxing for unknown sizes? She said 22 nails total.

I LOVED the tip on mass painting and what to do with the undersides for reuse to protect from acetone. Your nails in a box look very substantial, which is what I am looking for. I have not been impressed with the nails on “sprigs” that I’ve bought so far. Thank you so much (and thanks for the “bottom” analogy. I needed a laugh today. ) 😂 💅

Loved this videos and thought it was very helpful! Quick question tho; how does putting gel polish on the underside of the nail make them reusable?

[@emilyaitch8143]

I *think* it must be a builder gel top coat so acetone won't soak it off

[@suebeefly08]

Emily H how do you get them off???

[@seulgisbaguette1543]

@@suebeefly08 ff

[@catpride1323]

Its not gel polish she used, she used top coat. And it would have to be a hard gel, hard gel doesn't soak off. Keep in mind, she mentioned hard gel changes the flexibility of the cuticle area... Bubble Butts and Flat Nails... lol I think she actually grabbed a soak off one, just to show us how to paint, under the nail. Hope you still needed an answer... 😉

[@msdevontrenae6274]

Thank you!!!!!

[@Puglifemama101]

So if you want them to last 3 weeks put on a gel top coat on natural nail before gluing them on ?

[@wildflowersnails]

Yes, prep your nails well, apply a gel base coat, cure. Then apply a gel topcoat, and cure. Then glue the nails onto that. :)

[@idapinkham1810]

Thanks for all the tips, Carol Baskin 🤣

[@danigroves8945]

This might be a dumb question, but is it necessary to use a gel polish base coat with press-ons? Or can you just skip that and go straight to the gel polish colors?

[@lillyreyes2546]

You really don’t need to no but it helps create a good base (:

[@sumanmarks-johnson2488]

More than two months 😢 thanks for the video

[@analyticalthoughtss]

Why does adding topcoat inside make them reusable? What’s the different between with and without?

[@wildflowersnails]

Good questions! Buffing the surface of the nail makes the color hang on a bit longer, because buffing it puts little scratches in the surface, and the gel color can really get down into the little grooves and adhere better. BUT it typically stays on well if you skip the buffing. Why topcoat the inside? The topcoat is usually impervious to acetone unless you scratch it up to allow the acetone to penetrate through it. SO, that means, if you go to soak off the nails, the acetone won't eat the nails away and destroy them. It should just break down the nail glue instead of the whole nail. I hope that makes sense!

[@analyticalthoughtss]

Lauren Wireman thank you so much! This video was so informative. Just found your channel and I love you videos! ❤️

[@RemedyNailz]

how does client remove these without damaging? assuming i applied top coat on the inside of the nail. would client be able to use peel base?
