For a flat nail you can customize a tip by using a large one (1-2 sizes too big) and then with manicure scissor trim the sides off it so it becomes the right width for the nail

agree with envy

and make sure you build in a decent c-curve with your product x

Do you mean apex?

Flat nails will need an apex for strength and durability of the extension...
 
Is this a general rule to apply here with most flat nails?

I had a client today, a nail biter who had very flat nails. I just about managed it with my CND Formaiton tips, but I was wondering if there was another tip that was naturally flatter which would save time customerising (sorry bad sp) each tip.

I'd be interested in knowing this aswell. I was doing a set on my sister tonight and she has very flat nails, even formation tips wouldn't work they wouldn't stick to her nail and when they eventually did and I started to blend them they all cracked off, nightmare!

Mine didn't crack, they just took ages to pre Taylor so I was wondering if there was a tip compatible to save time?

Did you get scrub fresh or primer on your tip? Or perhaps blended too much and over thinned the tip?

Hi there, I didn't use any scrub fresh, I did pre blend the tips a little before she came to cut down on time. I think they cracked because they wouldnt adhere to her nail they just kept popping off and when they did after holding them in place for ages they weren't fitting correctly and had lots of air bubbles. x
