Hi fellow Nail Techs,
I am wondering if any of you have any tips for hand placement under the lights. I find that I am constantly reminding clients about how important hand placement is.
This is what I find, clients tend to turn their thumbs towards the desk preventing the light to get to it. I also have found that most naturally turn their hands outward which can create pooling, so I remind them to shift their hands inward slightly.
But nevertheless for me it seems as though these reminders are fruitless because I find that no matter how good my application is it ends up getting either smudged, pooled or not cured fully.
Typically, I cure all 5 at once, but for some 4 nails and then thumb. I was thinking maybe I may need to do one at a time but that alone takes so much time!
I am not sure what else to do!
I bought a new light that is open so I can see now what they are doing but geesh its alot of work! I used to have an OPI light but it was so difficult to clean.
Any suggestions at all would be extremely helpful so I can create the effect that I desire or client.
