I have quite a few clients that have this done,
the end result looks great and the clients love you for it,
Gigi has done a thread with a detailed explanation of how to some where on the site hth

I have. A client had had sort of missing big toenails for years and used to use 'stick-ons'. *shudder*
I used gel and she was so pleased.
She gets them done every month now.

Haven't done a whole toenail. Only when a chunk has been taken off because it's been banged. It makes a huge difference because it evens out the nails again so you can apply gel overlay. I have one friend in particular who is always doing this and she loves it when I make them look like new again. Did it on myself too as I broke one of mine about a month ago.. it's still on and still doing well.

ive done this a few times on clients, only about 4 weeks ago a client came in for a soak off, she had these babies on for summit like 10 weeks, but just let them grow without infills etc.

they look great, last ages, and take no (not much) looking afer

Yes I do these all the time.. most of my clients tend to kick their big toes or leave it to long to file them down as they don't want to file away the nail art that i have done.. I even do this my self on a step at home... always the same corner..
anyway I add length and make them look nice and straight and square and they look fab.
I tend to use my ezflow colours or gel for toes.. depends on what they need..
I know there has been a debate on here acrylic Vs Gel for toes but i find either is fine.

I dont use forms. I wait just until the arylic is in the molding stage and then i push my brush up under it so it is off the skin and hold it there until it forms at the same level as the natural toe nail ( hope that makes sense).

Have a try.. your clients will love you... Not all of us have Sam sweets beautiful toes.
