Acrylic flowers

[LeahNails]

Can you put acrylic flowers into gel extensions?

And if so, how would I attach them?

Thanks xxx

I'm not yet trained in gel enhancements, so forgive me, but could you not secure them with a bit of gel and then cure it, or cure into the topcoat? I've done this with Shellac.

You could also glue them on x

I wasn't sure if the gel would cure underneath. I am also qualified in acrylic but prefer gels, maybe I should get my acrylic back out......

Do you want them ontop of the nail or embedded in the gel?

Im sure you could do both. I have glued them on the nail after filing and shaping and then used my sealer to go around or if i want, over the flower.

If you want to embed im sure you could do it similarly, apply a thin layer of gel and cure. Wipe sticky off and buff a little to remove shine, glue flower (or whatever you want to use) then apply a thicker layer of gel to cover.
