Plenty of cuticle such as solar oil applied to the natural nail will help keep it pliable and reduce the amount of 'curling'

Deep natural 'c' curves are very strong and when they become dehydrated they will aggressively curl.

also ensure when you are applying that you really get down the sides to press the product onto the nail, and where possible cap around the natual nail.

hope that helps

Hi,
I have one lady like this - she normally has a new set and then manages two 3 week infills, then we soak and new set again. This works fine and she is happy with it.

I have someone like this too, i take the nails down as short as i dare and then we normally get two or three backfills out of them until the nails curve to the point where they are very obvious and annoy her.

we also use formation made my CND tips on her as for some reaosn they stay on better than any other tips we have in the salon!
