Reverse technique breakthrough

[shazapoppy]

Hi
I just wanted to give you an update on my journey with acrylic lol.. I did my conversion course with young nails yesterday and it was fab-u-lous...
As some of you know I've been struggling with my acrylics especially the smile lines.. I've just completed these and I'm chuffed.. Thanks to young nails and all the lovely geeks who gave me great advice.x😄.

To other geeks who are struggling keep going don't give up it will get better.😃

Thanks I really appreciate it, I just wanted to show other struggling techs how practice, sheer determination and finding what works for you along with listening to the advice really pays off.
I've been learning acrylics from nov and had real lows lately but when you have a great nail day its the best feeling ever. I've a way to go yet but feel I've turned a wee corner..x

It was a 3hr conversion well worth it £75.😄

I love the reverse sculpts, so easy to extend the nail bed, so easy to set everything up perfectly before moving on to the tip. Well done you.

Well done, they look great

I struggle with the smile line too, I have been qualified in acrylics and gel for 3 years now but still get frustrated and end up taking 3 hours to do a set that I'm totally not happy with at the end of it all (only practicing on family, no paying clients yet lol). I did young nails training back in 2009, haven't really done any nails since, picked up a brush and practiced on myself the other night reverse application - so much better than all my failed attempts at the traditional way Love their products too and all Greg's videos, he makes it look so easy!!

I've always loved the reverse technique. I perfected the technique on nail biters because putting a tip on the nail just wasn't practical.

It became my preferred method for short nails, too.
