Hi there - long one!
My client who has acrylics is super hard on her nails, I can guarantee she will need 2-3 tips replaced when coming for maintenance, always the same nails, and we have kept them shorter due to this problem.
She has had the fabric# system by someone else and isn't keen to have this again because she could see the fabric - I thought this might be an alternative.
I was wondering if I could use a silk or fibreglass strip across the stress area under acrylic to add extra protection for the tip. If so, how would I go about it and would it affect the acrylic.
I have suggested we try bio sculpture gels when I have done my course as they are more flexible and not as hard as acrylic, as this time she has obviously really knocked her nails hard as the tip has taken several layers off the nail plate.
Any suggestions? Oh as as the nails were quite damaged I have not replaced the tips as I felt if she did it again she could cause more damage. We are going to see how they are in 2 weeks and I have applied nailtique so strengthen them.
