Practise makes perfect !
Teenage daughters give me the practice I'm in need of to perfect sculpting gel nails. It really is not that easy, believe me. I commend those girls in the nails bars that do this all day long and in half the time it takes me! I had it easy with Bellas nails as they were gel free and she has a good clean long nail bed. In most cases you have to file or soak off existing gel. However for my first attempt of using gel to sculpt nails I was exhausted but pretty pleased with the result. I learnt a few tips myself in the process. These nails should last at least 2 weeks before a refresh colour will be need as the nail growth will start to become visible but the extentions will not need replacing just painting over, I will keep you posted on their durability! You don't even have to have them this long, its a trail run for me and Bella. By just adding a hard gel base coat you can have longer nails in 2 weeks !
