I don't know how did this happen. Luckily it doesn't hurt because it easn't broken deep enough.
I have two options.
- to cut all my nails at the same length
- to fix this nail
I chose the second option because first of all i have the products to fix it and second i didn't want my nails shorter.
First of all i had to remove the previous colour with the acetone to all of my nails. I didn't want to put builder gel to all my nails, that's why i prep only the broken nail.
With a pro file i made the surface of the nail matte, then with the brush i wiped off the dust.
I put a thin layer of primer and i waited until is completely dry.

Then i put a thin layer of base coat.

Then i prepared my nail extension which is fiberglass (it needs some time of preparetion before putting it on the nail).
I opened it with a dotting tool like dough
I put a thin layer of builder gel and i put the fiberglass.
Builder gel
I make sure that i placed it right on the nail, and i put it in the UV lamp for 120 seconds.
I cut the excess fiberglass
I put a second layer of builder gel but this time i put some more product on my nail to give a natural look.
When i'm satisfied with the result i put the nail into the UV lamp for 120 seconds. I took off the sticky layer of builder gel with some cleaner.
At this moment i have to shape the gel and prepare it for the gel polish, so this is the right time to prepare all of my nails with the pro file.
When i'm done, i wipe off the dust with the brush. The nail with the builder gel is ready for the gel polish, but the rest of them need primer and the base coat.
I used red and white gel polish and as for the designs i made some white dots on red background, and some red dots on white background to all of my nails. And this is the final result.
You can see how i created those dots following this link:
