I have just finished my first client for Gel nail Extensions. I finished off with a freehand french mani as I only has natural tips and clear gel and she loves the french manicure look. She loved the nails (shes a close friend so would tell me if she didnt!) but I wasn't quite as happy with the results.

The nail tips appeared to slope upwards instead of curve over the nail slightly so it was near enough impossible to create an apex and then thin at the tip of the nail. They also appeared to be too wide at the top even though I 'tucked them in' with the file. I also buffed the line of the tip next to the natural nail so that the line was not visible. Could anyone give some tips?

Thanks!
