Hi...
I'm doing the Acrylics course but I have been having some problems...
It seems that for some reason lifting is occurring almost immediately - I have been following the nail plate prep carefully - pushing in cuticle and pterygium well, using antiseptic, removing shine, dehydrating nail and finally applying a molecule thin layer of primer the way I have been told. and when i'm applying acrylic i'm careful so as not to touch the nail groove.
What can I be doing wrong? I'm using OPI if it helps.
Thanks:rolleyes:
 
try using a different brand. i use cnd lp. and i've never come across any problem!

the only other reason i think of that it's lifting is because your not applying product quick enough. try doing one hand at a time! hth :)
 
Are you making sure you're zone 3 is very thin, it should be filed so that no ridge exists between it and the natural nail. If you can feel a ridge then thats where you'll get lifiting.

HTH
