Nail Art Tutorials and Pro Tips
I believe in sharing knowledge. Here, I break down the techniques behind trending designs and explain the 'why' behind product choices so you can improve your skills.
In part two of my educational series, I discuss the two main types of temporary extensions: fake tips made of plastic and soft gel tips made of gel. Understanding this difference is key to choosing the right service for your clients.
Let's talk about permanent extensions. In this video, I introduce the different products we use, including builder gel, acrylic powder, and poly gel, and show you the specific "smile line small well tip" used for this technique.
This trending shell art design is a client favorite. In this short video, I showcase the beautiful, wing-like texture and ask my followers if they want a full tutorial on how to create it using our products.
About Nail Art Tutorials & Pro Tips
Most people ask why extensions pop off or polish chips within days. It almost always comes down to knowing your materials and prep. In these videos, I show you the specific difference between plastic tips and soft gel tips, and which builder gels to use for long-lasting, permanent results. Learning the technique is half the battle; knowing the right product is the other half.
Understanding Nail Extensions
Whether you are a beginner or looking to refine your technique, understanding the foundation is essential. I often see students confuse temporary plastic tips with professional soft gel tips. Plastic tips are quick, but soft gel is the industry standard for durability.
Choosing the Right Materials
'Smile line small well' tips are favorites for a reason—they offer structural integrity. When you move to permanent extensions, you need to master three main mediums:
- Builder Gel: For strength and structure.
- Acrylic Powder: For durability.
- Poly Gel: For flexibility and shaping.
Knowing which one to pick depends on your client's nail bed and daily lifestyle. Using the wrong product is the fastest way to get a bad review.
Mastering Trending Designs
Technique isn't just about application; it's about art. Take 'Shell Art'—it looks intricate, but once you master the wing-like texture and layering, it becomes a staple in your portfolio. My tutorials aim to demystify these trends so you can replicate them confidently.
