hi again,lol
i think you need to bring the side walls in more as the nails look flared.im sure you can see that your product application is not right as the nails are quite uneven and inconsistant.i think you need to apply more product to zone 3.your smile lines need to be more sharper and more smiley.
again if you want a more indepth critique you need to take more photos of different angles for us to see the apex and the structure of the nails.i have rated either photo as i cant see the nails from all angles and so the rating wouldnt be fair.
i look forward to seeing more photos as you progress.
good luck with the course.x

Thanks for that, I totally agree with you about them being slightly fanned, noticed in more myself whilst looking at the pics. . . oops

Will take on board your comments and the smile lines are obviously one of things that I need to master, but hopefully I am heading in the right direction ?!?!

Thanks

I agree with Tracey's comments (like your other post ).

You seem to have more gel in zones 1 and 2 and it's not consistent, the pinky is the most obvious as it's very top heavy with gel in zone 1 (free edge) and looks quite bulbous.

Keep practising and posting your pics, it's fab to see progression

Ok I don't often critique but I think you are definitely on the right road. The main thing that strikes me is that the nails all have wee shoulders, easily fixed though with your file, hold it straight down the sidewalls and don't lean if you can help it and they will end up all uniform like wee soldiers, without shoulders!

I would watch for product on the skin, I know it's hard with gel, the sticky stuff! , often you don't notice till it's cured. I wouldn't worry too much about your smiles at the moment as I think they look really quite good, smiley smiles are for whenI think when you are more confident with your product.

I personally think you are doing so well and good on you for posting, can't wait to see the next set

All your responses have been really useful, and yes I can see the shoulders. . . didn't spot that before, will take on all comments for my next set and keep battling on. . . . very much appreciated.

Debbie

im glad we could help.i think your very brave for posting so early on you are obviously very eager to learn.
its annoying because sometimes you dont notice things untill your looking at the picture and they are usually things that can be fairly easy to correct.
i look forward to seeing more of you work and to see how far you aave progressed as even now after 4 years im still learning and i still love to look back at pictures and see how i progressed.x
