i put on the first set of acrylic that i have had in about 2 years approx a month ago. so now that my natural nail is pretty long i have been one by one switching them over to uv gel cause the gels dont get eaten by the acetone i am in daily. i didnt want to extend my mail any further so i did an overlay. my natural nail is hard and strong but after 2 days i have cracked two of my gels on the free edge. i want to have my nails pretty for my clients but i get so fed up with daily repair and i dont want to go back to acrylic cause the acetone makes them look awful. any ideas why i keep cracking my overlay? if i had applied tips they wouldnt crack.
