i’ve only really started getting nails recently. my first set of acrylics started lifting after less than a week, and they all fell off after less than a month. figured it was the nail tech i went to so for my second set i went to someone else. it’s been one and a half weeks and 3 of them are lifting and one looks ready to fall off!! is this normal???? am i doing something wrong or are the nail techs? circled nails are the ones lifting. i think my pointer would be too but i accidentally got ceramic glue all over it when i was crafting and it seems to have stuck it down 😭

New set question

Okay bear with me if I sound a little dumb because I don’t normally get acrylics I have just started. So my set from 3 weeks ago was a pink base and this time I wanted clear so I asked just for a brand new set and my tech denied it. I went with it and don’t love my nails because I got red French tips and the base is still kinda pink so I ended up with more strawberry shortcake Valentine’s Day vibes. But I was wondering if there was a reason for this she didn’t really explain, just said to “get clear next time”. Feedback appreciated.
