@katesnails 13 күн бұрын
Hi! Lifting commonly happens when the nails aren’t prepped properly. Make sure the cuticles are pushed back, the surface of the nail is lightly buffed, and there is no dust. I also recommend using a dehydrator!

The product she used is another adhesive. When she puts the tip on her nail and cures it in the light it sticks to the natural nail and will last weeks if done right

After a week of my dip nails can I put a coat of double dip topcoat on my nails.
@katesnails 13 күн бұрын
Hi! You can refresh the dip nails with another layer of the dip top coat. I would also recommend trying a gel top coat instead, as I find it stays shinier longer!
@mariannerayo8608 Ай бұрын
This was great and I appreciate that it was short. I am surprised that you can cut/shape your tips without them breaking. Also, am I correct that you used regular nail polish on top of your dipped nails? Why not a colored dip powder? Do they stay on without chipping? Thank you!
@katesnails 13 күн бұрын
Thank you! I did not use regular polish, I think I followed it with some gel polish color. You can definitely use a colored dip powder, and it will last and look great!

I recommend making sure the surface of the builder gel has some texture to it (slight scratches from a file) to make sure that the gel has something to grip to when applied on top!

Do you recommend rubber base gel to overlay on tips or builder gel?

This is *exactly* what they do at the salon. It takes an hour or more, and they usually have to open up the foil and mess with it several times, after waiting in between. Did I miss something?

And your nails are super dried out afterwards, and crack VERY easily (compared to how easily they crack without any tampering) I'd really love to find an *actually* quick way to do it.

Hi! I personally did not experience the soaking to take that long. Make sure you’re using 100% acetone, and you could also add heat to speed up the process. I have some additional soak off videos on my channel that I recommend you check out if you’re looking for a different method.
