Guidelines
How to apply UV Nails;
Before you start...
Your treatment area should be a flat surface covered with a towel or disposable covering. Any spilled gel or glue will be difficult to remove from clothes, furniture and carpets. Do not operate the UV Lamp over a surface that is not protected by a towel or similiar covering.
Keep Gel away from the UV Lamp, and out of sunshine, at all times
Nail extensions...
Choose a nail tip with the best fit to the natural nail nail shape. Note, the C curve of the nail tip must be as near perfect fit as possible to your natural C curve.
The same principle and instructions apply to the preperation and treatment of your toenails.
Preparing the nails...
This is the most important part of applying nail extensions, if the nails are not correctly prepared the nail extensions will start to lift Follow each of these steps carefully and thoroughly. You may find it easier to have a friend help you the first time and we suggest you work on one hand at a time.
Applying extension tips...
1. Apply a thin line of glue onto the well of the tip. Tap the nail sharply on a tissue to remove any excess glue.
2. Hold the nail tip at an angle to the nail plate, then bring the tip up on to the free edge. Tilt and slide the nail tip onto the nail plate so that the natural free edge sits snugly against the stop point of the tip.
3. Press and hold the nail tip in position for about 5 seconds or until an airtight bond occurs. Ensure the bonded area beneath the nail extension is sealed and contains no gaps. This will prevent the trapping of water and dirt.
4. Apply all five nail tips in this manner than cut and file to the required length. The nails are only attached by the glue at this point, so file carefully.
Blending in the seam...
The seams only need to be blended when natural/clear nail tips are used. Do not blend if you are using white tips.
1. If your tips have been pre-blended correctly you can conceal the seam by buffing over lightly with the white sandingck until the seam is barely visible.
OR
1. Dip a cotton bud into the acetone solution and, using several fast sweeping strokes, rub vigorously until the seam begins to blend. Try to avoid rubbing on the natural nail plate.
2. Neaten the sides of the nail extensions using the buffing files, so they are straight and remove any wings but do not over file. Repeat for each nail.
Applying UV gel...
1. Brush one very thin coat of primer lightly over each nail, wait for the primer to dry (approx 3 mins)
2. Using the gel brush, scoop a small amount of gel from the tub, keeping one side of the brush clean by wiping it on the edge of the tub.
3. Apply a thin coat of the gel in the same manner as you would nail polish. Start 1mm from the cuticle and work towards the free edge.
4. Finish off by brushing across the free edge of the extension tip. Do not apply tp much pressure, as the brush will fan, leaving marks.
UV nail curing...
1. Turn on your UV lamp - wait for 1 minute to allow the UV to reach maximum strength. Place your nails under the UV bulb to cure the gel for 3 minutes.
2. Repeat the application of UV gel and curing two more times.
3. Once you have applied and cured 3 layers of UV gel check each nail for craters. If craters appear apply another thin layer of UV gel and cure the nails again.
4. Use the finishing wipe on a tissue to gently remove the tacky top layer revealing the hardened gel underneath.
Always wipe away from the cuticle and use a fresh wipe for each nail to avoid getting the tacky gel onto the skin of the next nail.
Finishing...
Once the nails are cured, file the seams of the applied UV gel using the grit file. This helps avoid the hardened UV gel lifting at the back of the nail. File around the sides of the nails.
