APPLICATION FOR FIBREGLASS EXTENSIONS

This procedure would be used when someone has very little free edge and does not want any tips to be applied.

Preparation

1. Gently push back cuticles.

2. Shape free edge of natural nails.

3. Lightly buff nails, removing shine.

4. Dust off well with dust brush.

5. Wipe nails with Prep & Clean, using a lint free pad, to remove oils, dust and to disinfect.

6. Place nail forms under free edge of natural nails.  There should be no space between nail form and free edge.  If nail form does not fit tightly against free edge, extra product may accumulate underneath the free edge.

Connector

1. Make sure nails are completely dry of Prep & Clean.

2. Apply a thin layer of Connector over natural nails.  Nails should NOT be shiny and should have a textured look. 

3. Cut and lay a piece of fibreglass mesh halfway over the free edge and halfway onto the nail form.

4. Apply another thin layer of Connector over the fibreglass mesh.  If product gets on the cuticle remove it before curing in the light.

Cure in the light.  Repeat on the other hand.

5. DO NOT REMOVE the dispersion film, it ensures proper adhesion to Modeling Resin.

French Modeling

1. With a small amount of French Modeling on your brush, sculpt a nail extension.  Roll the product onto the nail form beginning at the natural nails smile line.  Roll the brush side to side down to the clients desired length.

2. Using a clean & dry brush, keep the brush flat to the natural nails smile line; create a crisp “French” smile line.

3. Cure in the light.  Repeat on the other hand.

Modeling Resin

1. Apply twice:  First application, use a pea size amount of Modeling Resin on your sculpting brush.  Roll it gently, onto the stress point of the nail (approx. middle of the nail).  Keeping your brush parallel with the nail, above the product, roll it side to side down towards the free edge.  You should always have a “bead” of product between the nail and your brush.

2. Cure in the light.  Repeat on the other hand.

3. DO NOT REMOVE the dispersion film, it ensures proper adhesion to second coat of Modeling Resin.

4. Remove forms.

5. Second application should be rolled onto stress area, pushing down to the cuticle and brushing product back over French Modeling for good support.  Always use a push and roll motion with the brush.  Keep product thin around cuticle area and free edge.  If product gets on the cuticle remove it before curing in the light.¹

6. Cure in light.  Repeat on other hand.

7. Wipe off the dispersion film with Prep & Clean using a lint free pad.

8. File nails to client’s desired shape.

9. Dust off well with dust brush.

Sealer

1. Wipe nails with Prep & Clean, using a lint free pad.

2. Dust off with dust brush, to remove any lint (optional).

3. Make sure nails are completely dry and clean.

4. Apply thick layer (polish consistency) of Sealer with light strokes. 

5. If product gets on the cuticle remove it before curing in the light. 

6. Cure in the light.  Repeat on the other hand.

7. Wipe off dispersion film with Prep & Clean, using a lint free pad. 

The nails now have a high gloss finish and the fibreglass extensions are now complete.
