Gel nail 2

I was posted about gel nail, how to do gel nail.

And this time I will introduce about benefit of gel nail, how to remove it and about pictures.

I'll talk about the benefit of gel nail polish. It has lots of benefits.

First it takes short time to dry. It takes 30 second dry time that results in diamond-hard gel nails.

Gel nail were created to have stronger and harder nails without doing acrylics.

And gel nail polish is no smearing, chipping, smudging or scratching off.

So it keeps long time. Three weeks hold that conitues to look fresh until you take it off.

The gels are always so smooth and protect nails.
And best of all, gel nail polish is free of harmful chemicals.

 

And it's different from nail polish, so the way to remove is also different.

Unlike a regular manicure that your client can touch up or even do themselves, gel nails require clients to make an appointment at the salon for maintenance and removal. This equals more appointments for you and more money. Gel nail services are also more expensive than a traditional lacquer manicure. Plus your clients will be so in love the results that they will be returning for this service time and time again.

Gel nail 1

Do you know about gel nail?

Usually many people use plain nail polish, but I think gel nail is better than plain nail polish.

Gel nails are a type of artificial nails that most closely resemble the natural nail. They are similar to acrylic nails, but still different. Gel nails are formed by a combination of monomer liquid and polymer powder. The monomer liquid reacts with the polymer powder when put together which, in turn, forms long polymer strands. After being cured under a UV light and LED light they dry and harden to form a resin that looks like a real fingernail. Gel nails can come in any color and can include many different patterns and designs.

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gel_nails)

 

 Here are the steps that how to do gel nails. 

Step One

Similar to a regular manicure, begin with clean, dry nails. Shape and file your nails to your desired shape, push back your cuticles, and then thoroughly buff the surface of your nails with nail buffer. The buffing step is important because it creates a little texture to the nail surface that gives the gel something to adhere to.

Step Two

Apply one coat of the bonder to each nail, just as you would a base coat. The bonder acts as glue to help the gel stay put. This was exactly like applying regular polish and required no additional skill. So far, so good!

Step Three

 

Here's a look at the UV lamp in action.

After the bonder, apply one coat of the base polish to each nail on your right hand. Then, insert your hand into the LED lamp for 45 seconds to “cure” (harden) the formula. Again, this was extremely straightforward, just like applying nail polish, and only took a minute.. Repeat the base coat process on the other hand.

 

 

 

Step Four

Apply a coat of the gel color to all of the nails on one hand, then cure in the lamp for 45 seconds. Repeat on the other hand. This step is arguably the hardest since you’re applying the color, and if your manicure is going to last 1-3 weeks, you want it to look as neat as possible. Take advantage of the included manicure stick to clean up edges and wipe away any strap polish before you put your hand into the lamp (after you do that, the gel will harden and you won’t be able to fix it). After you’ve cured the first coat on both hands, apply a second coat of the polish to each hand one at a time, curing the first for 45 seconds first before moving on to the other.

Step Five

Apply the top coat to all nails on one hand, and cure for 45 seconds. Repeat on your other hand. You did it! I couldn’t believe how easy the process was, so I patted the surface of one nail to see if the LED lamp really hardened it – success!

Step Six

To finalize the process, saturate a cotton ball or pad with the gel cleanser – this alcohol-based formula removes any sticky residue left over and leaves your nails clean, dry, and shiny. Now, swipe it over each nail (yes, I know it’s a scary thought – this would usually ruin a fresh manicure!). But gel nails dry instantly in the LED lamp, so you can go ahead and swipe the cleanser over their surface and marvel at the fact that they’re already dry.

How to make your own nail stools at home

When you do your nail art, you need some nail stools.

Using nail stool it's easy to do. But it is expensive.

I found the video how to make your own nail stools at home.



 

 

In this video, there are four nail stools which can make at home.

Big and small dot pen, big dot pen, striping brush and detailing brush.

 

First, small dot pen.

You can use orange sticks or a toothpick instead. Also you can use dried out ballpoint pen and sharp pencil. Or a bobby pin

 

Second, big dot pen.

You can use a pin attached to a pencil rubber end and blunt pencil.

 

Third one is striping brush.

You can make your own by cutting off the bristles of a big art brush.

You can also cut the brustels of an old nail polish blush, but in the video it does not work as well as art brush.

 

The last one is detailing brush.

You can use your own old eye liner brush or cut the bristles of small art brush.

 

You can prepare your own stools in this video.

I never try to use this, but I will try!

Nail sticker

Some times it's hard to apply nail polish.

When you don't have time for waiting nail polish is dried, or just hard to apply it clearly.

Like these time, it's helpful to use nail sticker!

Nail sticker is easy to apply and you don't need to wait.

 

 

It's very easy.

First, apply the base coat.

Second, check the size of nail sticker for your nail, and remove the film.

 

 

Third, stick the nail sticker on your finger. While you stick it on your finger, pull it to the end of the nail.

Fourth, cut the rest of the nail wiht nail file.

Finish!!
If nail sticker is too big, cut it adjust yout nail size.
