I did my own nails fine a few weeks ago, then did my daughters nails but she politely declined to have them stamped after I tried for 20 mins to get a tribal design straight!!!
So I've had a wee practice today with my stamping before offering it to clients. Have applied Shellac and completed service. I have used Mundo de Unas Polish, Moyou Plates, Konad and Squishy Stamper. I have watched The RMGreys you tube and many others and it looked sooo easy!
Here were my problems during the 2 1/2 hrs doing 8 color pops! Yes I did say 2 1/2 hrs!
- The Gold smeared everywhere with the Konad Stamp but worked OK with Squishy
- The Stamps with full nail design, I found completely impossible to get straight
- The silver has stained my Squishy Stamper
- The Lavender wouldn't work at all with the Squishy but did with the Konad Stamper
I finished up looking like a child that had raided the Paint Pot Cupboard, but with a stinking headache and bin full of used wipes!
Are these issues normal or is old age the issue here?
I don't want to have to say to clients, oh you can't have the lined design cos I don't do straight lines, oh and you can't have Gold cos I'll smear it all up your arm etc!
I did get these done in the end but really? Is it safe to let me loose?
I welcome any tips -
