Not many nail techs use this technique, but it’s a game-changer when there’s minimal dry skin and all you really need is a light cleanup.

Here’s how to do it:

👉🏼 Ball bit 031, red grit, 10,000 rpm
👉🏼 Hold the client’s finger from the top, just like in the video
👉🏼 Work only with the center of the bit
👉🏼 Keep the skin stretched
👉🏼 Lift the skin first — don’t move directly to the proximal fold
👉🏼 Start by trimming the skin skirt from underneath, then smooth out from the top
👉🏼 Long strokes, no pressure

One thing to always remember — never place the bit on the upper part of the skin or it will grab and chew it 😬

I’m sure you’ve seen nails like these covered with gel using a simple alignment technique. And what’s usually the result? Thick little “buttons” 😅

This method not only emphasizes the natural nail shape, but can also make the proportions look even more unbalanced.

This time, one of my students worked with a model like this during the course, because I intentionally don’t choose only “easy” nails with perfect architecture.

My goal is to show that any nails can look elegant when the right technique is used ✨

Models are selected based on your personal learning goals 🫶🏼

Hard gel? Apparently not this time 👀

This was a new client with a set done elsewhere. She told me it was hard gel — but after just a few touches with the bit, I realized it wasn’t.

The material was much softer and behaved completely differently during removal.

The tricky part is that recognizing hard gel is mostly about experience and comparison.
Some things in the nail industry are hard to explain until you’ve physically worked with different products yourself 😅

That’s why testing gels and carefully reading product descriptions is so important.

And honestly… sometimes “semi-hard” really just means “semi-soft” 😂✊🏼

What do you think?
Did the nail tech genuinely not know it wasn’t hard gel — or knew, but simply didn’t explain it to the client? 👇💬

The difference? Huge 👇🏻

1️⃣ Thin layer
Applied to improve adhesion and create slight cushioning between the natural nail and semi-hard/hard materials.

✔ Always cured
✔ Always applied with a rubber base

2️⃣ Slip layer
Applied with the same material as the overlay to help the product distribute smoothly over the nail.

✔ Not cured
✔ Used only for easier gel movement and control

But they do have something in common 👀

👉🏼 Both should be applied in a thin, even layer — not rubbed into the nail.
👉🏼 Both should reach the fold area evenly, because they become the foundation for the overlay that comes next 💅

The most challenging — yet most satisfying — part of nail prep is working in the sinuses, right? 😁

There are two key factors to a clean result: correct movements and the right angle.

Save this video and check yourself — are you entering the sinus correctly? 📌
