Tickled Pink!

I'm new to nail enhancements and this new site but what topics i have posted, you wonderful guys have all taken the trouble to help me...so here goes!
What am I doing wrong? I trained with Odyssey Nail Systems only in September and having had lots of practice on my faithfull nail trainer and a long suffering friend, I have branched into the scary world of charging real clients.
I buff of the shine, push back cuticles, dehydrate, pre prime, tip blend, pre prime again and then acrylic primer before the ONS L&P overlay, but still seem to have problems with lifting (after anything from a couple of days to a week)...I'm starting to think I'm completely useless...Is it the product or me. Can anyone with experience of ONS comment?
One friend, who is notorious for being too busy, has been leaving her infils for over 3 weeks and despite losing a complete tip has virtually no lifting. I do my own nails but in all honestly, enjoy 'playing' with them so never leave them long enough to see if they lift or not, as for the nail trainer it doesn't complain at all!
I am starting to dread the phone ringing now...it's more likely someone complaining their extensions are lifting rather than booking an infill!! Also, there are so many non standard salons using MMA around here which my clients have been too in the past, that with regards to product durability i feel i have a hard act to follow, despite telling them all about the hazards and natural nail damage.
Feeling really FED UP!!!!!
