    I have been working harder using the short round Apres extensions and shaping them into almond. I've been influenced. I just bought the short stiletto using your link. It should cut down on the time I spend shaping my nails! Thanks for all of the helpful tips!

    • @RAnailbar

      Yes! I love the narrow stilettos. Makes it so much easier to turn into almond.

    Omg I thought I was going crazy. I also felt like their prep bottles are not long lasting.
    I love Orly Gel tip primer for everything! It's the silver bottle with black top.
    I love gelish foundation to apply bcuz their brush tip is perfect to grab the right amount for Gel X and for Gel Manicures.
    Love your work !!!

    This set was so cute!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ I love doing apres on myself, these tips were so helpful, I’m definitely going to try enailcouture though, because I agree on what you said regarding the apres extend gel, the soak offs are too long & it’s extremely thick, I feel like I make a mess each time. I do have the stuff in the tube by enailcouture though, I need to use it more often.

    • @RAnailbar

    You don't need to use builder gel on top of the tips? It works just fine start painting them? 😊

    • @RAnailbar
      @RAnailbar  Год назад +2

      Nope! These aren’t regular plastic tips. They’re gel extensions 😊

  • @emilyrosenzweig9946
    @emilyrosenzweig9946 Год назад +1

    Great video! So interesting to see that you don't put a coat of base coat on your nails before adding to the top -- I've always wondered why / whether that step is actually necessary.

    • @RAnailbar
      @RAnailbar  Год назад +1

      Definitely not necessary! As long as the tip is buffed, the gel polish will grab onto it.

  • @Jess_Bishop
    @Jess_Bishop Год назад +1

    I absolutely love the results! Never heard of a croc nail but I’ll have to try this. How long does it take you to do a full set of nails from beginning to end? It takes me soooo long 🥲 am I doing something wrong?

    • @RAnailbar
      @RAnailbar  Год назад +2

      If you’re new that’s completely normal. When I do myself, it takes about 2 hours total. I usually do one hand then take a long break before starting the other lol. For a client, I can do a set in 1-1.5 hours. Practice practice! 😄

      you can use hard gel! It’s a little more tricky with a smoother texture but you can definitely get a similar effect! ♥️

      With proper prep and application, they are just as strong but more flexible. Which is why most people prefer them. Give it a try 💕

      @ALT-vz3jn Год назад +4

      I have tiny nail beds and my favorites are the Unna Gella tips on Amazon. It’s like they were made for me! They have extras of the 7-8-9-10 sizes, which I need. They’re also pre-etched and super thin, I recommend them.

      It’s different but I’ve heard base coat works too 👀 not sure if it’s as strong. A rubber base coat would work great

    • @RAnailbar
      @RAnailbar  Год назад +2

      The hair stylists I work with absolutely loveeee gel-x. However, the hairstylist I work with are very rough with their hands outside of work and never use gloves to protect their nails. It all depends on your willingness to protect them or not. Plus the length you get ♥️
