Unless you work at 'Lifting nails 4 U salon and Amway club' you will be a bit of a fan of nail preparation.

That’s because the sole purpose of prepping the nail plate is to remove oil, moisture and contamination that could otherwise guarantee your clients nails flip off.Click here to read the entire tutorial

Sorry bad spelling i meant thanks!!!

Hiya, just reading the tutorial, and was wandering at what point to apply and blend in tip, as from what I can see it say's to once you have primered or finished with scrubfresh?? but then when I blend tip and get client to wash hands to remove dust surely wouldn't this remove primer and all products that I have used to kill off any bacteria ?
I have been applying tip then using scrubfresh, primer, am I doing this the wrong way round then ??

Cheers guys

Scrubfresh should never come into contact with tips (makes them crack)....so prep and scrubfresh...apply tips...blend...file/shape....use a dusting brush to remove dust...then you can prime/scrubfresh the natural nail ONLY...HTH

How do you prevent liftin on your own nails.. I mean yes, technically it should be exactly the same for a client... but mine last 3 days and then lift off. I dont understand what I'm doing wrong... (oh.. and the dumb lil bubbles in gel overlays.. I dont understand that one either...)

Hi,

I have read your prep lesson and found it a great refresher. Now I always use Nailfresh before Scrubfresh on every client, should I not do this?

Thanks

It is not necessary to use both products in the normal course of events.

Helloooo GMG,
This tutorial brings me back to my college days bacause this is exactly how I learnt to prepare the nail. I really like the way you carefully and constructively included the nail disorder prevention. I always follow the procedure that I learnt at college and I have not had a client come back to me with lifting etc. This is the perfect lesson for ALL nail technicians. Thank you.
