I have been a nail tech and beautician for about 4 years now and have no complaints with my shellac, minx, nail art etc and this is what most people come to me for however I havent done a set of gel tips for about 2 years as I cant get the bloody things to stay on! Every time I do them, they lift and/or come off within an week, once they lasted 2 weeks and they were on me. I have even done a Brisa conversion/gel training course with a lovely CND trainer in england but the little blighters still come off. I have stopped offering this as a service but am turning down a lot of trade so I used my niece and friends daughter as guinea pigs, one had glitter and one had plain but they both pinged clean off within a couple of days. I know the emphasis will be on prep but I am meticulous about this and constantly watch videos and tutorials and cant see what I am doing wrong. Saying that, I have two gel tips on at present as two of my natural nails snapped, they went on about 3 weeks ago and are still going strong!! The way it is going, I will be the only nail tech who cant do gel tips! Any help would be greatly received. Thanks :cry:
