Hi,
I have searched through the forum to see if my problem has been mentioned before.
I have been doing extensions on friends to practice with GELeration on top.
All of them have had a tips fully broken from the nail plate, across the apex.
I have tried different adhesives, made sure i have fully dehydrated the nail before and put a suitable amount of adhesive on.
The only thing i can think of is when blending the tip on the nail plate it's making it weaker? However, i need a flawless blend for clear french polish.
Not sure if i need to build the gel polish thicker over the apex? Use a higher gritfile on the nail before. At the moment i am using a 100/180 lightly over the nail or i am blending it too much.
Please help me out!! I hate tips but most people want them!! :|
