    I’m an Apre’ gel nail tech. When a client waits too long for a fill and they have grown out like these have I simply trim the product to the natural nail and soak them off because these tips soak off faster than they can be filed off. This is also another reason why I like apre’ gel. For clients that hate lots of filing I choose this product. I use the foil wrap technique for 10 minutes and the start the removal process on the nail I first wrapped. Using a 100 grit board to roll the product off the nail, that seems speedier than using a cuticle pusher or orange wood stick.

    I have done infills on the Apres gel x system with acrylic,but only after 2 weeks & they don’t lose their shape.there’s a very small difference between the the new replaced nail & the rest of set.I believe that you over worked for this infill, you would’ve been done sooner had you done a new set.I really appreciate the time you took to give us this class👏🏼👏🏼💕

      A_vokadas You’re not gonna damage the natural nail by soaking off Apres and reapplying, literally zero damage. However, leaving them on for too long and risking lifting and water getting in there causing mold and/or fungus can cause damage.

      she has to take into consideration what the client wants though. if they really like the shape of the tips or how they feel in general and if she cant reproduce it the same way entirely from scratch.
      i guess in this case she would have wanted to do them from scratch anyway.

    I think you did awesome for what it is. Many would love to wear any set from you! Including me!!!! Thanks for sharing 💜💖💜I use both potted and bottled gels...bottled are easier for me to store without spilling...pots easier to reach the gel with my own brush (as I rarely use the provided one, just what I'm used to working with ).

  • @Denisejohn65NailEd
    @Denisejohn65NailEd 4 года назад +26

    They look fine .
    For me though , I feel like systems like this are no more different than full glue on nails. The only difference would be using gel as the glue . These systems result in nails with no structure or apex .... a flat nail . No one needs any skill to glue on these type of nails .... like per say , sculpting nails with a paper form and product .

      @OfficialLadyDarkSky 4 года назад +1

      they have pre-sculptured nails so it has a full apex they also have them short long, box, square, round, oval, stiletto. funny you say glue but i like to think of the gel as a glue, i have used all kinds of nails and i have to say the systems go as press on nails being easiest to last then apex nails then acrylic then gel for me. reason press ons are last and easiest is because they don't have a structure or apex, where as apex nails do and are not flat at all.

    • @queenshad1161
      @queenshad1161 4 года назад +1

      . Denisejohn65 - Nail Ed sounds more like a user error. They are structured with more of a c-curve that runs down the whole tip. As far as the apex goes, that’s normally an issue if you’re pressing them down too much/flat. I feel their “sculpted” ones tend to have a deeper c curve and there’s more space in between the tip and natural nail to sort of do a reverse apex where you just have to fill in that gap which fills the apex, if that makes sense? Idk, I’ve done them on quite a few clients and they didn’t have issues with them snapping off. You get 2 fills or so before you have to do a rebalance

    I am not a fan of that system. I bought the enailcoture ones, and even though they're amazing, I still prefer sculpted nails in terms of strength and longevity. I had lots of liftings within the first 10 days and decided to remove them immediately. Also, I never ever have liftings with regular builder gel.

    I’ve been using another brand of full cover for about 9 months now and I find if there is any lifting I need to remove the whole nail. They just don’t file down well IMHO. I do fills all the time but only on the nails that haven’t got any lifting which is usually most of them. I’m really hard on my nails and have been using a poly gel to attach and I seem to get better results on myself this way since they are very strong 💪 with no lifting.

      Emily Bacon what is the point of your response? My comment is about how people can go 6-8 weeks without any nails popping off not about how much it costs.

    Thanx for sharing an being so honest. I did a fill with gel x for my daughter an omg it’s ti much work. The gel x as u said has its shape ❤ an structure so once u remove it it totally changes it all. It’s best to do a new set definitely.

    I work with the Apres Gel X system a ton (I offer it as an express service and have used them on myself since they first launched) and I've done lots of successful fills with them but they are so soft to file (especially once you get down to just the extend gel, that gel is soft and gummy af) that they can be really fussy to fill and they soak off so fast compared to any other extension product that it's honestly much faster to soak them off than to file them off or fill them. At this point I only fill them if the client has no lifting and originally came to me with bad damage that needs to grow out entirely protected, in those cases I use a tougher hard gel base layer (usually Light Elegance) under the gel X extensions for extra protection from the file.

    I think they look good. Don't be so hard on yourself. I just used full nails off Amazon and they have kept the c curve great. I had one with an air bubble that I had to remove part of the nail (on myself). They held up great and still are great.

    We all have bad day from time to time ,I find when I’m having a bad day I’m even more critical of my work which doesn’t help..I’m sure your client still loved them , and did not even notice the difference , being a nail tec we become perfectionist because we see all the nails together and want them to all match perfectly ,

    I appreciate your honesty and I think your being much harder on yourself that you need too, I still think they look nice. But I have also come to the same conclusion I do not fill apre, I just soak off and new set

    I did an infill on full cover tips like this. I noticed the same problem with the c curve flattening out and looking wide. It's much better to start fresh.

    Hi Anastasia. The truth is that for me they were beautiful!!! Painted, no defects visible. Now I ask you: is it worth spending so much time refilling, leaking and so on when you would spend less making a new set? I'm new to this nail thing that's why my doubt.

      Yes I experience the same. Some clients can be very naughty and it takes some time to educate them not to pick and bite. Especially when they come to me with bitten natural nails I know they are going to go after the new nails like a pit bull goes after a new chew toy, lol.

    Infills are hard period. Everytime I do my own infill, I seem to have a tendency to widen the nails... Even if I go trough my filing routine as usual. You did however do a good job even if you hated the result yourself. Troubleshooting 101! Now back to the re-doing-video of these ^^

    I just started using the Apres Gel-X System and I don't see any reason to do infills, maybe once with acrylic but no more than that.
    I prefer this system I believe it's faster and easier on clients.

  • @Catarina2829
    @Catarina2829 4 месяца назад

    From my professional experience i think that after wearing soft gel tips for over 3 to 5 weeks the best option is to shorten the nails, remove about 90% of the product and do a new set.

    You can actually pinch them by heating them a little and letting them cool in the pinching tool. I'm not a nail tech but got this tip from a hair client of mine who is a nail tech 😊
