Free class: https://paolaponcenails.com/masterclass Today's Topic: Cream gel, Cake gel, Jelly gel… same thing. All of these words refer to the new trendy format of gel type for nails… AKA solid gel. It just depends what brand you buy into. I’ll be honest. I think I’m kind of late to the party over here with this solid gel nail thing… but to be fair to myself… I actually am not super quick to jump on trends. So in my quick little solid gel nail polish research, I learned that these have been out for at least two years and then it seems as of mid last year or so, that the solid gel nail thing really took off with so many gel nail brands carrying them. And, overall, yes! I like solid nail gel… but I am not ready to trade in all of my gel pots and bottles. But if youre mobil or travel, these are the best thing to carry around. P.S. Solid Gel is soak-off gel, AKA soft gel. 🔺 Favorite Japanese Gel Nail Products: https://paolaponcenails.com/kokoist (code PPN10) https://paolaponcenails.com/leafgel (code PPN10) 🔺 Favorite Korean Gel Nail Products: https://paolaponcenails.com/zillabeau (code PPN10) Want to be in the know of all things I post Korean-Gel related?

What Are Gel Nails? What is nail gel?

And the answer is yes! But it does take some practice and a very methodical step-by-step. Every gel nail certification I teach has a lesson on how to form gel extensions with the soft builder gel of each brand. And I wanted to start out by stating this because today, I’m actually going to be using a polygel hack method to create an extreme length gel nail extension. I consider anything to be extreme length for the wearer if it is at least twice the size of the nail plate that is actually attached to the nail bed. So yes, this is different for every person. And for these lengths I recommend you do full coverage tip extensions or the polygel method I will be showing you today. If you’re wondering why not just do the entire gel extension service with polygel, that is because of two things: #1 I want to essentially only use the polygel to essentially create a plastic nail tip. The old school half ones. So I thought, Heck!... if it’s game to use plastic tips for our soft-gel extensions and they’ll still be called “soft gel” extensions, than it is definitely game to use poly gel to create extreme length soft gel extensions. Am I right, or am I right? #2 We are wanting to do free-form extensions using soft gel, anf I’ve done this in the past, you can click the right card for that video. And what happens, is that at a certain point the soft gel extension, bends a little too much for comfort. That is just the chemical structure of soft builder gel. Although it is indeed strong, it maxes at about half an inch or, at double the length of the nail plate… and there you go, thank you Lord for polygel. ____ Want to chat it up with a community of premium soft gel independent stylists?
