Nail extensions were invented so that the fairer sex could easily lengthen their nails and not worry that they would break when they reached a certain size. Many women are limited to a small length, and some prefer rather long extension nails. What are the features in the extension of elongated marigolds, what shape such an extension can be, and how beautifully designed it is - let's see.
Features in building
Long nails can cause a woman enough inconvenience. In addition, an improperly designed design may look untidy. Therefore, building long nails, you should follow one simple rule. The length of the free edge should be less than or equal to the length of the nail bed.
But as an exception, going to a media meeting, or as a wedding manicure, you can neglect this proportion and make nails of any length.
There are even people in the world with very long natural nails. The size of the longest nail plate is 130 cm. This achievement is included in the Guinness Book of Records.
Advantages and disadvantages
Long extended nails can create a unique image, add a twist to it, but also deliver a lot of problems to the owner.
Having too long marigolds, it will be difficult for you to service yourself: wash your hair, make the bed, put on clothes. In addition, you will not be able to work at the computer, it will be rather problematic to press buttons on the intercom or elevator.
But if you have a housekeeper, then all this will not cause you big problems.And you can call the elevator with a pencil lying around in your purse.
How to build stiletto nails
The most popular form for building long nails is stilettos. These nails, pointed to the ends, resemble the female arms of the same name.
- To create this form, initially you need to do the usual preparation of the nail plate. Push the cuticle away with a pusher, carefully remove the pterygium, cut the cuticle, go through the nails with a file with low abrasiveness, treat them with a degreaser and apply a primer.
- Now is the time to move on to building up. We process the plate with the base gel with rubbing movements, dry it in the lamp and set the paper form, making the cone as narrow as possible.
- Apply the gel to the mold. Here you can use both colored material and colorless. It all depends on the design that you plan to portray. Immediately form the shape of the nail as much as possible, stretching the gel to a point on the form. Dry the layer well in the lamp.
- We apply camouflage gel on the nail plate, perfectly bringing out a “smile”. Dry in the lamp.
- Next, we level the surface of the entire extended nail with a transparent gel.
- We filed a fingernail over the entire surface, giving it an ideal shape. Degrease the surface, apply a drawing if necessary. We cover the nail with liquid finish gel on both sides. Dry again in the lamp.
- Moisturize the cuticle with a special tool.
