## About Intricate Artistry: 3D, Swirls & Hand-Painting

Forget mass-produced stickers; all my 3D art—whether it’s embossed flowers or raised Russian swirls—is hand-sculpted using 4D carving gels. Because this requires layering, structural shaping, and flash-curing to hold the design, these sets are time-intensive. Plan for a 3–4 hour session, and please send your inspo pictures beforehand so I can prepare the specific pigments and tools needed for your look.

### Artistry, Not Just Application
There is a massive difference between a stick-on charm and real, sculpted 3D art. When you book a session for intricate artistry, you are getting hand-carved textures built directly onto your nail bed. Whether it is 4D floral work, Russian swirls, or metallic chrome accents, I don’t rely on shortcuts that pop off after two days.

### The Technique
For my signature 3D flowers, I use carving gel and a silicone tool to shape each petal individually. This isn't just about gluing charms; it is about structural integrity. If you want those viral 'lemon slice' nails or intricate stained glass effects, we use specialized metallic painting gels. I flash-cure at every step to ensure the dimension stays crisp and doesn’t flatten out under the top coat.

### Practical Tips for Long-Lasting Art
- **Work with Your Hands?** If you are active, let me know. I can adjust the placement of the 3D art so you don't snag your hair or clothes, while keeping the design looking full.
- **Preparation:** These designs are custom. If you have a specific color palette or a Pinterest reference, send it to me at least 5 days before your appointment. This allows me to map out the design and ensure we have the right carving gels in stock.
- **Maintenance:** Because 3D art has height, treat it with care. Use the pads of your fingers, not your nails, to open cans or type to keep the art clean and chip-free for the full 3–4 weeks.

## About Only Nails

I moved away from standard salon work because I was tired of seeing 'shortcut' techniques that damage natural nail beds. I prefer sitting with you, understanding the exact vision you have, and using the right carving gels to build art that actually stays.
