Hi just wonder how many of you do stiletto nails? Are they popular in mini size in your salons?
I find them not practical at all for salon purpose unless they more kind of pointy shape insted of true stiletto, but I love doing them after houres for practising a nail art and photoshoots. Will be happy to see other pictures for inspiration, so please share your works here :) ;)
 
Hi,

I have only ever done one set of stiletto's - they don't seem popular in my salon but then I am located in a village and my clients all have very fixed idea's about things like that.

I love the look of them but would not like them myself as I do all other beauty treatments and they would just be in the way lol x
 
I live in small vilage is well so know how dose it work with clients :). Did you try to use them just for portfolio?
 
I have been asked quite a few times for stiletto's and the last set was done just before Xmas. I do get asked for the shorter ones as well.

I love the look of stillettos but couldnt wear then myself either as I also have a beauty salon and would probably poke a client while I was doing a brow wax or something
:eek: I've never been asked to do a set yet.
 
I love stiletto nails! Here are a set I did recently for a model client of mine.

I'd love to do more, but people just don't find them practical and generally stick to the mini stilettos!

Love these! Can I ask how you did them so long? As in are they special tips or sculpts? If sculpted do you use special extra long forms or do you just stick afew to each other to get the length you want? Xx

I did use 2 sculpting forms on each nail, like stick them together. If you want can take a picture of it on the nail xx
