Acra-c forms, do you use yours.

[jac extreme]

Hi all,
remember a while back we all went mad buying up the Acra-c forms, well I just wondered how many of us are still using them.

Mine are gathering dust in the cupboard, not because they dont work, just because I found it much easier to tear a form off a roll than fiddle with them, then clean them and squidge them back into their box:lol:

I always use my Acra C forms. There is no other form that has such a beautiful shape. I keep them in a bag and cleaning them is just a matter of a little wipe usually.

Are these by creative ?

 

[VickyB]

YES, Yes and definately Yes.

I couldn't think of parting with them - love them !!

I have just cleaned them all up and put the outside bits in a tip box, gonna give them another go, I tried them on me earlier and some of my nails have a very high hyponychium what would you do in this case, would you just use a normal form on these nails and cut to fit, as I couldnt get the acra -c form to fit on these nails.

 

[angel fingers]

you can tailor the forms with a pair of curved scissors.

you would cut the acra forms!!! doesn't that stop them from being reusable then.

I would think that it would make them from being re-usable .....depends what I'm doing I use both kinds...

 

[EllaX]

ive never heard of them - what are they?? xx

it very well might do!
but if you cant use them in the first place, you wont be any worse off !

maybe you could customise a paper one and stick it onto the acra c one some how, then they would all turn out the same c curve.

I couldn't be without them - yes, they can seem a bit faffy sometimes (especially on my dodgy digits), but for that end result, so worth it.

Go on, get 'em back out the cupboard Jac!

I got mine from Nail Solutions about 3 years ago but not sure if they still stock them - could try ringing/emailing them Ambs if you fancy a try.

I would be worse off if I cut them to fit me, as then I couldnt use them on a client

 

[Lana]

I forgot all about my Acra -c forms.Thanks for reminding me.I'll try them on on my acrylic clients.

 

[Vetty]

I'm with you Jac - tried mine on myself and didn't get a great result (although to be fair I hadn't had any sculpting training then) so put them away and haven't got them out recently...... Might give them another go, but to be honest I like the fact that customising Performance Forms is so easy.....

Hmmm, don't really like using clients as guinea pigs but will need to try them on someone!!!

 

[Nafia]

have them never used them

 

[pips]

Does anyone know where these can still be purchased from?
Ide love to give them ago

 

[jac extreme]

I think we brought the last of them up, unless anyone is selling theirs.
