How to use
The process of using nail glue for manicure is relatively simple, but it requires certain skills and precautions. Here are the detailed steps:
- Preparation
Cleaning nails: Use nail cleaner or alcohol cotton balls to clean the surface of the nails to remove grease and dirt to ensure the bonding effect of the glue.
Trimming nails: Use a nail file to trim the shape of the nails and gently polish the surface of the nails to make it slightly rough, which helps to enhance the bonding of the glue.
Choosing false nails: Choose false nails that fit the size and shape of your nails.
- Using nail glue
Applying glue: Apply the nail glue evenly on the back of the false nails. You can use tools such as a brush, dropper or squeeze bottle to control the amount. Be careful not to apply too much to prevent the glue from overflowing.
Paste the false nails: Carefully align the glued false nails with the natural nails, fit from the root, and press gently for a few seconds to ensure that the false nails fit tightly with the natural nails. If there is excess glue overflowing, it can be gently wiped off with an orange wood stick.
- Curing and adjustment
Fix time: Keep pressing for about 10-15 seconds until the glue is initially cured. The curing time of nail glue of different brands may vary, please refer to the product instructions.
Adjust the position: Before the glue is completely cured, you can slightly adjust the position of the false nail to ensure that it fits naturally.
- Finish the manicure
Trimming the false nail: If the false nail is too long or the shape is not ideal, you can trim it with nail clippers and nail files.
Apply nail polish: Finally, you can apply a layer of transparent nail polish to increase the gloss and protect the false nail.
- Cleaning tools
Cleaning tools: After use, clean the brush or other tools in time to prevent the glue from curing on the tools.
