Hi I am very interested in trying some Popits. (Anything to save time!) I am a bit confused though about when the clients nails start growing out. Do they have them soaked off and then a new tip applied, followed by using the Popits or, as I have seen in some videos, sculpt the white tip onto the Popit, then apply it as normal? If you have to scuplt the tip on first, thats not really time saving. I don't like to add a tip then just use pink powder over it, I like the proper white tip colour.
Advice on popits please

When a clients nail grows you you can do the infill as you normally would, without the popit, or you can do it with a popit. You have the choice.
Doing a P/W with a popit is possible, but a royal pain in the arse, cos its definitely a talent to get the pink in the popit before the white sets. I'd do it on myself or a nail trainer first and get the mode going before doing it on a client. Honestly though, you are really better off doing a P/W the manual/usual way. I have used white tips with a popit, but I've used a clear overlay, not pink.
My method: do the white (either tip or sculpt) do the pink and then use the popit for the clear. They really aren't designed for complicated stuff, they are for a quick service.

Hi I may be a bit dumb, but i can't work out how to reply to answers that people have given me! It says in the reply box to click on one of the icons but it won't let me do it! Sorry for being a bit dim and thanks for the help I have received.
