STEP BY STEP PROCESS
Step 1
Using some acetone solution i am cleaning my nail beds with a cotton ball which i had soaked with aceton, this i am doing to get any debri and oil on my nails for a clean surfeace to work with.
Step 2
In the next step i am filing my nail beds using a nail file, this is so that the surface of my nails is rough for the glue which i am going to use to with the nail extension to adhere well to my nails.
Step 3
After filing i went ahead to choose the nail sizes which fit my real nails beds perfectly , then i am going ahead to apply some glue unto my nails and placing each of the ten the nail extension unto my nails beds.
step 4
Here is a look of the nails after application, , the next thing i do is file down the point where the nail extension adhers to my nails beds, this is so that it appears seamless in the transition.
Step 5
The next step is to shape the nails into my preferred shape, as you may be aware there a re different types of nails shape, today i am going for a almond shaped nails, i went ahead to cut the nails into a triangle-like shape, then went in with a nails file to do the rest of the shop. After filing i am wiping off the dust from my hands
Step 6
This step is where we incorporate the acrylic process, to do this i am setting out the acrylic powder which is a nude shade,the acrylic liquid solution,the steep brush and a small cup container, taking the acrylic liquid i and pouring a little amount into the cup, next i deep the steep brush into the solution and next into the acrylic powder, this is to create a sort of cement consistency on the brush with this step.
Step 7
Here we are going to be building the acrylic unto our nails using a swiping motion to cat the entire nails shape, i did this building process about 3 times to achieve a thick layer of acrylic nails, although it appears rough.
Step 8
After i was satisfied with the thickness of the nails, i am going ahead to file the nails so that it has a smooth surface and this is the look!!
Step 9
In this step i am creating a designing of my choice with regular nail polish instead of gel nails polish because this is what i had available.I am using the brown nails polish because i was going for a fall inspired nails, i went ahead to use the pointy edge of a cooking bamboo stick to create a curve at the pointy part of the nails.I did two coats of nail polish after creating the curve.
Step 10
I then did a top coat of clear regular nail polish instead of gel clear nail polish.this sis to give the nails a good glossy shine and for a luxurious look.
And This Was The Final Result!!
