[@Arleana885]

I am very sorry if this a dumb question but will your acrylic sculpture technique work with different brands of acrylic? Or is your specific brand made and altered for ur sculpture technique?

[@youngnailsinc]

We can't speak on other brands as we do not test them.

What is the difference between mani Q cleanse and swipe? Can I just use swipe to clean up the sticky layer on my fiber gel?

[@youngnailsinc]

ManiQ Cleanser is for soft gels because it doesn't have any acetone in it. Swipe has a little acetone in it which works better on hard gels.

Can you make a video on how to make a square nail using these purple forms that is the full length of the form? Like it extends until the last line on the form but square not coffin.

[@youngnailsinc]

I got add at file left side first 😢. Ugg. Left hand problems. And do I press hard or lightly when hand filling?

[@youngnailsinc]

You don't want to press too hard, but enough pressure so it's balanced. Too light and it's not really going to help.

Should sidewalls always come Straight out from the finger for coffin? I see ppl changing square to coffin..and their sidewalls go up to the free edge n arent straight.. which i always thought was improper structure.. but people tell me its ok? Help! Lol

[@youngnailsinc]

For proper structure, the lower arches should be coming straight out from the sidewall. When you shorten or change shape after they've grown out, the c-curve gets wider near the fingertip and can "curve" in on the sidewalls/lower arch if you file off the sides. Here's a video that will give you more info. ruclips.net/video/g3SGO4V0APk/видео.htmlsi=SI0c4VWQYgVSxWo0
