Can anyone plz tell me what is the best nail tip to use for flat fan shaped nails,
and is is best to file down the sidewalls of the natural nail before applying the tips?
Hi Hun,
Best tips for this type of nail are eclipse or formation...........Reduce the length of the natural nail as much as possible,there wont be the need to file sidewalls as you will have taken the nail right back to the free edge, size the tip to fit the lateral walls...... Reduce the tip contact area........Apply with gelbond and slightly angle the tip downwards to give the nail a nice natural arch.............
Shape the nail oval or almond depending on the amount of flare, the most flattering shape for this type of nail.............
