How to do nail extension (step-by-step)

Broken nail?

Are you whipped because your nail broke?

Don’t worry, in this video I will show you step by step how to rebuild a nail when it breaks or when I want to shorten the free edge. Before continuing with the video, I invite you to subscribe to the newsletter if you haven’t already done so you won’t miss any news.

Step 1 - Round the nail form

I round the nail form to make it adhere perfectly to the nail.

The nail form must be straight and firmly under the nail.

My nail has already been buffered. So I can prepare it with the Nail Prep Dehydrator & Acid Free Primer.

Step 3 - Apply the base coat

After having prepared the nail, I can apply the Base Coat and then I cure in the UV/Led lamp 60 seconds.

After having applied the Base Coat I can now create the nail extension.

I prepare the Acrylic Gel, the Slip Solution and the Acrylic Gel Brush.

I lightly moisten the brush in the Slip Solution and I work the Acrylic Gel.

Step 5 - Shape the nail

After having cured in the lamp 60 seconds, I carefully remove the nail form.

With a 180/240 Nail File I refine the nail shape.
