Oh what a great idea Helen I do have one question though...actually two questions lol...1st is I wear Polygel not Acrylic would I be able to order and second what's an approximate price...I'm gathering there would be a starting price then additions depending on what we asked for ?...thankyou for sharing 💜💅💜
To wear press ons you'll need to remove your polygel first so the press on can fit snug directly onto your nail. That way they'll also last better. And prices start from $30AUD and can range all the way to $200AUD. The starting price is a press on kit with one plain colour and one accent colour (optional), the tips do not have acrylic or gel on them, so there will be some flexibility with those. Of course you could add acrylic or gel on top, but that alters the price also. If you're interested in a press on kit, please don't hesitate to private message me on Instagram and I'll gladly help you out with any further details ❤😘❤ Thanks for watching my lovely ❤😘🤩😍🥰☺❤
@@Bubbles-n-Bitches thanks Helen I wish but I'm a bit wary of the filing process it's so easy to file too much...I've done that before lol can I just say ouch xo
This is the weirdest thing ever !!! Last night I put a poll out on my insta asking my clients etc if they’d be interested in press on’s. So anyway they pretty much all said yes. So before bed I searched for a video on how to do all the measuring etc......then I wake up and you have one 😂🙈 😘
This is so helpful cuz I been googling how to measure for my press on nails without them sticking to my nails before I’m ready lol that’s how I used to measure by just holding the press on over my natural nails to see which ones fit and then using nail glue but the ones I bought already have adhesive on them so you don’t need glue lol
This was an awesome detailed video with options for everybody! I made a similar video on my channel but I link your video in my description box for anyone needing further understanding. Again, thank you for sharing!💕✨
I know my nail size for press on already but I have to try that first method 😍 very informative and I know it will help your clients!!! PS: that press on set was beautiful 😍❤
It can be a little tricky when measuring can't it? I'm glad you liked the press ons and found this video informative!❤❤❤ Thanks for watching Patrice!❤☺🥰😍🥰☺❤
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR THE DETAIL OF THIS VIDEO! I subscribed simply because you gave excellent, STRAIGHTFORWARD instructions that are easily understood! Do you create custom nails? Sorry for the novice question but I have no clue but deducing from this video, I’m assuming that’s what you do. I will view your channel for more detail and maybe a product site or something of that nature. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks! 🙌🏽👍🏽
Thank you so much for watching! Unfortunately since this video was uploaded 2 years ago, I changed careers and am doing dog grooming now. I’m glad you enjoyed the video tho!💖💖💖
Wow !!!! Helen this is so awesome. That set you made were gorgeous and the box and packaging just beautiful. So does this mean I really could have nails that were designed by you ??? I’m a DIY er and not that good yet at all. Hope all is well with you and your family and mum. Miss you two !!😘
Absolutely you could!🥰 If your interested, please DM me on Instagram with design ideas and I can give you a price. If you're happy to proceed thereafter, I'll let you know more details ❤🥰❤🥰❤🥰 Thanks for watching my lovely ❤🥰☺😍🤩❤
☺☺☺oh shucks! Thanks Leslie! I've had this packaging for a good year now because I've been wanting to dip my toe into press ons for a long time now, but distraction upon distraction, I kept putting it off, til now of course 😅 I'm glad you found this video useful! Thanks for watching my lovely ❤😘🥰😍☺❤
Oh, that was only to show the different ways you can measure your Nails. That way everyone can choose a way that they prefer. Thanks for watching my lovely 🌟 💖
My nails are very tapered like a trapezoid - should I still go with the widest part (hanging over my bottom sides which is more uncomfortable for me) or the beginning of my nails (not covering the sides fully but feeling comfortable) ?
Omgoddess!!!... What a fabulous idea, I've always wondered how the measurements were done, I've seen alot of people doing multiple nails so that the client can size them themselves... I hope you and your family are all well and not going too bonkers during the lockdown... I'm sending you my love and light to keep you positive and so you know that I keep you in my thoughts, be careful & stay safe my lovely... 💫😷🧤😘🧤😷💫
I'm glad you found this video useful! We've all been well my lovely! I'm hoping lockdown will be over soon, but to be honest, I'm low-key loving isolation 😅 is that bad!!😅😅😅
If your pencil is extremely thin, then you can measure on the line. But most markers are thick, even the thinnest ones, which in that case it's best to try and get the zero to just touch the line. This will be your starting point. Hope this helps! Thanks for watching my lovely ❤ 🥰
Thank you! I'm so glad you found it useful! Absolutely you can link it. It would be great to help out others with this information. Thanks for watching my lovely ❤😘🥰😍🤗❤
Unfortunately these are the standard sizes. Have you considered filing down the side edges of the tip to make it more narrow to fit you better? Do you feel that could work for you?
@@Bubbles-n-Bitches thanks so much for the quick reply! Dang, no one makes extended sizes? No, it doesn’t work unfortunately. I have tried it before but I have to remove so much from the sides that the nails become flat and don’t adhere well and bend badly because they aren’t strong anymore from having a bit of c-curve.
Oh that's such a shame! You're next option would be to have a nail tech apply freedom liquid on your natural nails, then custom sculpt extension directly onto your nails, and with the freedom liquid underneath, you can pop off the acrylic extensions relatively easily, and use them as press ons. But I'm not too sure if many nail techs will be willing to do this or even aware if this technique. If I think of anything else, or if I find another solution for you, I'll definitely let you know!
@@Bubbles-n-Bitches Oh wow, I never knew that was possible! Thank you so much for such a thorough and thoughtful reply! I can understand why most techs wouldn't know about this technique or wouldn't want to do it, but I can ask a few in my area. Thank you so much again, and I really appreciate you keeping me in mind if you come across anything else :)!
I'm glad you liked it! I got my boxes from this company in Australia www.packqueen.com.au/p/dl-invitation-box-matt-black/700-FB12867-MBLK Thanks for watching my lovely ❤😍🥰😊🤗❤
Hi. What if your measurement is between sizes. I have to convert from inches bc of my ruler. If when converted I get measurements like 13.49mm or 15.88mm, should I be rounding to 13mm/14mm or 14mm/16mm?
That's a tricky one because every millimetre counts when it comes to press on nails. Half a millimetre can make the difference of your press ons being too big or too small. I suppose you can try rounding down if your conversion comes in under a .5 and round up if it comes in at over .5 So ill use your measurements you gave me for an example: I would round down 13.49mm to 13 and round up the 15.88mm to 16mm Does this help somewhat? Thanks for watching tho, my lovely ❤🥰😍😊🤗❤
Those letters correspond to the first letter of the name of each finger. For example: P = pinky finger R = ring finger M = middle finger P = pointer finger T = thumb Hope this helps! Thanks for watching my lovely ❤🤗🥰🤩😍😘❤

@@Bubbles-n-Bitches well it really is stunning! I hope you post photos if all the designs you create on your press ons!😘😘
Why you switch Measuring tape when it came to the right hand ? I’m asking because I don’t know & I’m tryna learn how to measure nails 💅
Oh, that was only to show the different ways you can measure your Nails. That way everyone can choose a way that they prefer. Thanks for watching my lovely 🌟 💖
@@Bubbles-n-Bitches Okay 🙂
What happens if a client’s nail size is a half size? Like 11.3mm? Do you file a nail tip to accommodate for this size?
I would choose a bigger tip and then file it to the size I need.
Hope this helps! Thanks for watching my lovely!

My nails are very tapered like a trapezoid - should I still go with the widest part (hanging over my bottom sides which is more uncomfortable for me) or the beginning of my nails (not covering the sides fully but feeling comfortable) ?
can i ask how about the shape of the cuticle area? i just bought press ons but i have rounded cuticles and the press ons are more squarish.
Awesome video. Please stay safe and healthy and have a great weekend. ❤❤
You too my lovely!

do i have to measure with the zero inside the lines even if i’m using a thin pencil?
If your pencil is extremely thin, then you can measure on the line. But most markers are thick, even the thinnest ones, which in that case it's best to try and get the zero to just touch the line. This will be your starting point.

Does anyone know where to find press on nails smaller than size 9? I have narrow nail beds and it looks like everything is 0-9 or 00-9.
Unfortunately these are the standard sizes. Have you considered filing down the side edges of the tip to make it more narrow to fit you better? Do you feel that could work for you?

I've learned I have very short nails
What is p r p r p m p t ??
Those letters correspond to the first letter of the name of each finger. For example:
P = pinky finger
R = ring finger
M = middle finger
P = pointer finger
T = thumb
