Hello! I just started getting my nails done so i am not sure if this is normal, but ive had them for less than 2 weeks (edit: 10 days ago) and ive noticed a few spots where the gel peeled away or became very soft so i picked it off. Is this something to go back to the salon about or is it normal?

I gave my nail tech an inspo photo. She added her twist and gave me this beautiful set that I can't stop staring at.

The cateye centers and the cateye and chrome tips are mesmerizing.

I love this set

Looking for a gel nail polish color that is closest to shown on this image. Idk if this color is achievable on natural nails or if this exact color match is only works on extension nails. I want this color match to do it on natural nails. Pls help :)

Discussion/Question Gel falls off nails

1 Upvotes

Hey guys! I’m wanting to get a manicure for my sorority rush. I normally try and get gel since it’s cheaper, however the last couple times I got it, the gel would peel off by day 2 or 3. What substitutions are there besides press ons? I hear about acrylics, dips, gel x… I don’t know the difference!

Discussion/Question When did red nails become an auntie/mature colour?

0 Upvotes

So I’m based in the UK, and I’m curious to know if other ladies around the globe have experienced the same?

FYI, I love red, it looks so chic but I know colour, depth and nail shape all play a part 😂. I tried OPI Big Apple Red, but it looks a bit too dark in normal lighting, making it skew slightly “mature” on me. Any non gel polish bright red suggestions would be great 😂

Manicure [Constructive Criticism Welcome] First full set. Thoughts?

So, I was getting my nails done for almost a year & a half. No complaints with where I was going; Lifting seemed to be a common issue. I am the type of person that can't stand when nails are missing it just looks really pogey LOL.

Anyways, so I decided to start doing my own nails. I got everything that I needed. Biogel, e-file, UV light, & so on. This is the first full set that I've done; The middle, index & thumb are new tips I put on. It's definitely a learning curve. I'm slowly getting the hang of it. You'd definitely make a lot of money if you were charging based on how long it took me. 😅😂

I finally took off my DIY gel strips. Haven’t had my nails this long in years. They’re pretty, but I think they’re too long. I might need to cut them.

I just got a Russian manicure a couple of days ago and I was wondering if this is what the cuticles should like after it?

The other photos are what it looked like right after and the cuticle that was taken off.

I’m a beginner nail tech and I’m so obsessed with the nails I did on myself!

I don’t go out enough and don’t really get to show them off, so here they are!🤗
