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. |

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 |

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...)

A personal thank you
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. |

I have never found the need to use any kind of primer with CND monomers in over 15 years.
I think the acid free is really for those who 'feel the need' to use a primer but in effect acid free primer is a degreaser for those extra oily nail plates (that I have never seen |

this tutorial is great, i have been having major lifting problems and all my tutor has been saying is it could be down to prep but not actually showing me the correct way (after me asking on several occasions) i have put this down to us having a big class, i will definatly try this method out and hopefully solve my problems xx

When I was at college I trained in NSI and was advised to etch the nail plate completely using the brown file which is 100 grit file ( just checked my notes and says the same ) and its not once we went ocer the nail plate we were told to rub back and fourth. Does anybody else use this method . I did think this was quite harsh to the nail so would like your thoughts as I dont want to damage nails. I use NSI Nail pure to dehydrate the nail. But have not used any other brands to see which works more effectively.
Thanks |

Hi Jimboodee....using a 100 grit on the natural nail is 100% going to cause damage....In some cases (years ago) i think it was about roughing the natural nail up with 100 grit to get your product to adhere....times have moved on...now with the development of some products (high end) its not nessesary...the products will adhere to a 240 well prepped nail....all we should be doing in prep is removing the shine....not scratching the nails.
The more grooves (scratches) you make on a nail the more of the nail plate you are removing....the more nail plate you remove the thinner the nail becomes....the thinner the nail becomes the weaker it becomes...the weaker it becomes the less your products will adhere and the more chance of infection and nail separation. |
