Gel Tips for Nail Extensions
Gel Tips for Nail Extensions
Quick choice: Gel Tips are pre-formed tips designed to speed up extensions and reconstruction, maintaining more uniform shape, thickness, and symmetry. They are suitable for professional work with full structures, when you want to reduce filing time and achieve an already defined shape.
Which shape to choose
- Almond: ideal for an elegant and tapered result.
- Square: suitable for a more linear and decisive structure.
- Ballerina: perfect for a modern, slender and professional effect.
Gel Tips or Dual Form?
Gel Tips are pre-formed tips that remain on the final structure, while Dual Forms are used as a temporary mold to shape gel or acrygel and then removed after curing. The choice depends on the technique, the desired result, and the time available in the salon.
How to choose the correct size
The tip must correctly cover the nail plate from side to side without forcing it. A size that is too small can create tension and compromise durability; a size that is too large, on the other hand, requires more adaptation and finishing.
For which treatments are they suitable
Gel Tips can be used for quick extensions, complete reconstructions, and services where a uniform shape is needed on all fingers. For preparation and adhesion, it is important to always follow the technical system compatible with the products used.
