Hi there this may sound stupid, but do you file in a smile line with half well tips like you do on full well tips or do you just put them on as they are and blend? We have been using full well tips on my course but I have run out of these tips and only have half wells to practice on.

You can either file the well to make it shorter or use a pair of curved scissors and trim the excess well from the tip.
The less tip you have adhering to the nail the more room you have for product and therefore a stronger enhancement

Thanks for the reply. Is it better to use well less tips then. Sorry about all the questions I am training and want to get everything right. Thanks again xx

You will need a variety of tips to suit the differing shapes of your clients nails/nail plates. Some will need tips that accommodate deep side walls, others a flatter nail etc etc.

Well less tips have their place, as do other shaped tips... I have 4 types of tips and use them all at some point or another.

My personal advice would be to have more than one kind.
