Hi

Im now doing the "working the whole hand" part of my course and the no 13 nail is doing my head in! i know there are some tips somewhere on getting a tip to fit this nail but i cant find them anywhere so can someone please help or point me in the direction of the right thread? I keep applying the tip and the curve is too high! aaargh!
 
this did my head in too took me ages but if it is not fitting on properly use a larger nail and file dow to fit
if it is bubbles you are having probs with then put a bit of glue on the nail too as well as the tip
hope this helps

i have tried filing the well into a v shape and it fits better. but any more tips if there is an easier way would be great thanks!!
 
the number 13 is a bitch though there is something on the site though that says you can use another size but i dont know if you get marked down for it though are you doing l&p or gel?

its ok though, managed to get myself unstuck without losing much skin ha ha
 
I had probs with this nail, I called EN and spoke to Suzy, she told me which size nail to use but aaarrrggghhhh I forgot which size it is. If it's any help, whichever size it was, it did work. I also put a drop of glue on the nail as well as the tip.
