Correction of gel nails: step by step instruction

Modern women in pursuit of beauty and practicality often wear artificial nails. Plates can be pasted and embossed. In the latter case, the handles look more natural and neat. However, such beauty always requires timely processing. Presented to your attention become to talk about how to do a correction of gel nails.

When to manipulate?

That period of time through which the correction of gel nails is performed depends on many factors: length, accuracy of wearing, prescription of the first build-up. After the first coating of the plates with a strong material, it is necessary to process it after 2-3 weeks. Subsequently, it is permissible to wait 4-5 weeks. But remember that the speed of growth of the natural plate plays a role.

Correction of gel nails lasts about two hours. Therefore, you need to plan the time in advance. If you make a new cover yourself, then you can leave three to five hours. Take this into consideration so that unforeseen situations do not arise.

Necessary materials

Correct correction of gel nails assumes the availability of all instruments. You will need:

• Saws of different rigidity, grinding bar (bafik);
• Degreaser or nail polish remover (without acetone);
• Primer;
• Gels of different phases;
• Stickers-stencils (when changing the length of the plate);
• A lamp for drying the gel.

Some masters work as typewriters. Such devices allow you to quickly grind the old layer of gel. But this is optional. The machine only shortens the procedure time, but does not affect its quality and result in any way. Correction of gel nails step by step should be carried out. Further, you can get acquainted with the main points that are performed in the specified order and nothing else.

Removing the old layer and processing the work area

How to make correction of gel nails? Before you start applying a new layer, you must delete the old one. To do this, use a nail polish remover to clean the surface of the plate. If the coating was previously made with gel varnish, then it must be cut or cleaned with a special solvent.

Separate the old layer with a hard grinding. It is important not to overdo it. There is no need to clean the gel to a natural plate. Just level it with the level of the overgrown section. If the nails are chipped or detached, then these places need to be well cut. Do not leave air under the gel. This will lead to rapid destruction of the material. Give the nails the right shape. At this stage it will be the main one. It is on the created sawn plate that you will form a new nail.

Use a brush to remove dust from your fingers. Wipe thoroughly with a degreaser. It is important that the napkin does not leave the villi on the rough surface.

Application of gel

If correction of gel nails is carried out at home, it is permissible to use single-phase material to simplify the procedure. Masters in salons prefer to use three-phase gels: basic, basic (modeling) and finishing. If you want, you can buy them yourself. Plus single-phase coverage is that it does not provide for additional costs. This gel is liquid enough and pliable.

Before laying out the foundation, it is necessary to cover the nails with a primer. This binding fluid acts as a ground. Pay special attention to the "bare" sprouting area. After the primer has dried, do not touch the nails to objects and wipe the plate. If you still did, then once again degrease the surface and apply a primer.

The gel is laid out in three layers. If you have single-phase material, then only he is used all times. In the case of performing salon work, the base is first applied.

• The first layer should be very thin. The gel seems to be rubbed into the nail surface. Next, the marigolds are placed in the lamp for 2-5 minutes (depending on the power of the device).
• The second layer is performed by the basic (sculpting) gel. Nails are covered with a sufficient amount of material. With this layer you form a nail. Fill all the sawn areas. If necessary, add more material to the tip. Be sure to dry this layer in the lamp for 10-12 minutes. After this, it is necessary to give the plate the desired shape.

Cutting and grinding: shape and finish coat

Using a hard file, form a nail. The length and shape on each finger should be the same. When you reach the desired result, you need to shake off the dust. Re-treat the marigold with a degreaser and dry.

Next, the finishing layer is applied. Let us repeat that when using a single-phase gel all works are performed only by them. The finishing coat should not be as thin as the base. But this layer must be much less than average. Find the golden mean. Try to paint the plate. Dry the gel in the lamp for 5-15 minutes. It is important that all layers are well dried and strong.

After that, using the barfic, grind the finished marigolds. Do not cut a lot: you need to achieve smoothness of the plate. If it is necessary, then with a saw again walk on the form.

Decorative coating

Each correction of gel nails provides a final decorative coating. It can be done by conventional lacquer or gel substances. This part of the work entirely depends on your imagination and desires.

Often, women apply a design under the gel. In this case, the drawings are executed after the formation of the second layer. The finish coat provides for fixing the work. It protects the created beauty. Note that simple varnish hold relatively short even on gel nails. Therefore, for practicality and durability, masters are increasingly using coatings that require the same drying in a lamp, like a gel.

Increase in length

If the correction of nails requires an extension of the plate, then you must first remove the existing layer. Performed manipulation with a file or a typewriter. Please note that this procedure does not have a favorable effect on the condition of the natural plate: the nails become thinner, start to crumble and lose most of the surface layer.

In the case when the elongation is inevitable, it is necessary to carefully cut the gel. After that, glue stitches to the finger along which the length is adjusted. Cover the native plate with a base layer. After drying, place the sculpting gel, making a preliminary shape. Spread the middle layer with a new build-up from one to three times. Much depends on the quality of the material, the desired shape and nails of the woman. The manipulation is completed in the same way as the usual correction.

Summarize

Make correction of gel nails at home is not as difficult as it seems. It is important to stock up on the necessary materials, time and patience. Perhaps the first time you will not quite what is planned. But eventually you will learn how to quickly and correctly process the marigold. Doing correction yourself, you can save a lot.

If you do not want to suffer and prefer first-class work, then visit the salon. The average cost of correction of gel nails is from 1000 to 3000 rubles. Do not forget to manually make a manicure for the beauty of your hands. Be beautiful!
