Arched nail modeling with acrylic. Modeling gel for nails reviews - how to use photo

Arched nail modeling is considered one of the most prestigious and popular types of nail extensions. The combination of excellent appearance and functional characteristics of the nail plate allows the technology to hold a leading position in manicure for a long time!

This is a conventional extension method with a special way of modeling the arch of the nail plate. Arched nail design involves creating an arch that has a greater degree of curvature. It is based on the formation of a perfect C-curve, an ideal match between the length and width of the nail. The result is a correct, beautiful shape. And the strength of the free edge of the plate increases greatly in comparison with other extension methods.

Arched nails have many benefits!

• Impeccable form.
• Great strength, low vulnerability of the nail.
• A perfectly straight smile line.
• Strength of the stress zone (free edge).
• Correction of the distorted direction of the nail growth line (if necessary).
• Correction of all irregularities, defects, and damage to the record.
• Resistance to physical impacts.
• Visual correction of nail bed defects.
• Minimal risk of breaking and cracking the tip of the nail.
• Great possibilities for design: from classic French to bright prints.

Arched modeling has some contraindications:

• pregnancy;
• infectious processes;
• cuticle damage;
• hormonal changes in the body;
• taking certain medications (such as antibiotics);
• tumor diseases, chemotherapy.

Features of arched nail modeling

How to do arch modeling? It's not easy, sometimes there are small difficulties. To avoid them, you need to know all the secrets of extensions and practice! It is better to entrust the modeling procedure to an experienced master in a beauty salon. The result directly depends on his professionalism!

Setting up forms for arched nails has its own secrets, the main ones of which we will reveal to you!

• Careful processing of the plate before applying the base coat, mandatory degreasing, and proper filing are very important. The final appearance of the nails largely depends on this stage.

• An important role is played by the accurate determination of forms and selection of the ideal template.

• Gaps and cracks should not be allowed when installing them to a natural plate.

• The highest level of accuracy is required. The material should not come into contact with the skin of the fingers to avoid peeling.

• It is important to correctly determine the thickness of the coating: maximum in the middle of the nail, minimum at the edges.

• Using professional tools and devices will significantly improve the result.

• When modeling, the client's wishes are always taken into account.

Elephants use arched nail modeling with gel or acrylic. Which one should you choose? This is determined by the master together with the client. Each technology has its own advantages, application secrets, application rules, and special nuances in everyday life. An experienced specialist will advise you which material to choose, having carefully studied the individual characteristics of the nails.

Flawless manicure: basic rules

There are several simple rules for modeling and caring for arched nails. If you neglect them, you will not be able to get an ideal result.

• A trimmed manicure can be done no later than three days before the planned extension.

• On the day of the procedure, refuse paraffin therapy or wraps. It is not even advisable to lubricate your hands with cream. Residual grease may prevent the surface from effectively adhering to the gel.

• Do you have an urgent need to touch up the edge of your nail? Scissors and tweezers should not be used for these purposes. Only use a file or grinder designed for artificial nails.

• You can apply varnish to the gel. But to remove it, use a liquid without acetone. It is necessary to exclude all contacts of nails with any products containing acetone.

If soft and brittle nail plates do not allow you to create a fashionable nail design, then arch modeling with gel will help strengthen them, give the free edge the desired shape of any length. This modern nail extension technology significantly increases the strength of the stress zone and free edge, allows you to create an ideal “smile line” and impeccable plate geometry, and also makes the appearance of the manicure as natural as possible. Arched nail modeling with gel very subtly forms a C-curve, ideally maintaining the proportions of the length and width of the natural plate.

Nowadays, such a modern nail extension service can be ordered in almost any beauty salon. The master will select the appropriate template shape for each nail and carefully extend the free edge to the desired length and shape, adjusting the bend of the nail arch. During the modeling process, the gel is laid out on the template form, the artificial free edge of the nail is adjusted, and then the polymerization process occurs in a UV lamp (the gel hardens). If you already have experience in performing manicures with gel polish and drying the coating in a UV lamp, and you know how to build nails using tips or forms, then you will be able to do arched modeling with gel at home by carefully reading the video tutorials posted at the end of the article .

To begin with, it is advisable to practice on artificial nails, carefully forming a C-curve with gel so that the arch of the free edge maximally follows the curve of the natural nail plate. By the way, arched modeling will help give strength and the desired shape to your toenails if you want to get a fashionable pedicure with a beautiful design on warm summer days. But before the procedure, thoroughly sand and polish your toenails, using files with varying degrees of abrasiveness or a special machine with cutters for hardware pedicure.

♦ ADVANTAGES OF ARCHED NAIL MODELING

❶ A wonderful option for women with a non-standard shape of the nail plate or with any defects on the nails that prevent them from getting a beautiful manicure. Gel modeling helps to correct the direction of nail growth, fixing a less than perfect nail bed, and also to hide flaws and damage to the nail plate. A new architecture is formed and the too wide nail is slightly tucked in, visually lengthening the fingers;

❷ Manicure performed using this extension technology is not only durable, but also strengthens the weak natural nail plate;

❸ Fingers look more well-groomed after the procedure, the cuticle is better protected from mechanical damage;

❹ Both polish and gel polish lie very smoothly on the extended nail. Any coating lasts much longer on the nails; the design looks great for several weeks without additional correction. On gel nails, a design made with the help of airbrush, a design in the style of “broken glass”, a fashionable slider design, a jacket in any design looks great;

❺ An arch-shaped bend will harmoniously combine with oval or almond-shaped nails. Even on short square or round nails it is easy to make an elegant C-curve by modeling the free edge with gel;

❻ During the procedure, the base is modeled taking into account the characteristics of each nail bed, the smile is carefully cut out and the arch is pressed. Of course, it is much faster to do extensions using tips (file the nail, glue the tip and apply gel or acrylic), but such artificial nails look much thicker and wider, are not durable and further emphasize downward growing nails.

♦ STEP-BY-STEP ARCHED NAIL MODELING WITH GEL

Before the extension procedure put it on the manicure table required Tools and materials:

▪ A set of manicure tools (scissors, pusher, tweezers, glass files for correcting the shape of natural nails and ceramic files with coarse abrasive for correction of the extended free edge, buff for polishing);

▪ LED or UV lamp for drying (polymerization) of the free edge arch, as well as a cleaner for removing the sticky layer;

▪ Orange sticks;

▪ Remover for cuticle correction;

▪ Primer or degreaser to prepare the nail for extensions;

▪ Brush;

▪ Gel, base and top coat;

▪ Arch Templates and Clamps.


- one-time form templates


- reusable form templates


- metal and plastic clips for pressing arched nails

The process of gel nail extension on forms:

Step 1:
At the preparatory stage, we carefully clean the surface of each nail from the old coating, and then carefully trim the free edge with scissors to 1.5 mm, sand it with a nail file and polish the nails with a buff. We remove the keratinized layer of the cuticle using a remover;


Step 2:
We treat the nail plates with a primer, and when the surface is completely dry, carefully apply the base coat so that there are small indents from the cuticle line and side ridges. Dry the base layer in a UV lamp;


Step 3:
Now we take the arched template, carefully cut it out and place it on the nail so that there is no gap in front of the natural nail plate. The arch of the template should perfectly follow the contour of the “smile line”. It is important that the form fits tightly to the nail; make semicircular holes in the area of ​​the side rollers;


Step 4:
Using a brush, spread a thin layer of gel onto the stress and free zones, and then dry the layer in a UV lamp. After this, the gel is applied to the entire plate and the sculptural part using driving, rubbing movements so that the largest amount falls on the stress area. The gel from this zone spreads to the edges. Dry the gel in a UV lamp for about 8 minutes and then remove the dispersive sticky layer with a cleanser;


Step 5:
We file down the “smile line” with a nail file and spread a thin layer of gel, then dry the gel in a lamp and remove the sticky layer with a cleanser;


Step 6:
We remove the arched shapes and put special clips on the nails. We do polymerization in a lamp (the arched silhouette of the nails is clearly formed thanks to the clamps) for 5 minutes;


Step 7:
We remove the clips and file the extended nails in three stages: filing along the line of the free edge, filing and shaping the arch in three directions (near the lunula and the nail fold, the arch of the nail bed from the edges to the center with movements from top to bottom, the end of the nail), filing the lower walls of the nail on the sides;


Step 8:
Apply the finishing coat and dry in a lamp for several minutes.


*some craftsmen use special tubes instead of clamps, which are placed under the molds

♦ VIDEO MATERIALS FOR BEGINNERS

Such a concept as artificial lengthening and strengthening of natural nails, as well as related services, appeared in America in the middle of the last century. Initially, dentists borrowed drugs that had 2 components: powder (powder) and liquid (liquid).

In terms of their chemical composition, materials for prosthetics belonged to one of the varieties of drugs called acrylates (acrylics).
This name stuck with the two-component system for nail modeling.

Nail modeling- This is the application of artificial material to natural nails to give them strength and an aesthetic appearance.
In the mid-80s of the last century, gels appeared simultaneously in Germany and the USA. And the main difference between acrylics and gels is that gels have a thick, viscous, honey-like consistency. Their polymerization (hardening) occurs under the influence of special lamps that transmit ultraviolet rays. Gel systems can be one-, two-, three- and four-phase; they are used depending on the extension technology.
Nails can only be modeled using acrylic or gel. But there are several more ways to strengthen natural nails.

Main types of nail extension technologies:
. Acrylic technology.
. Gel extension technology.
. Glue and powder system.
. Strengthening nails with silk and fiberglass.
. Strengthening natural nails with gel polish.

You can model (that is, create a shape) your nails with a file, having previously built up a mass of gel or acrylic, or you can immediately use a brush, which significantly reduces the work time without affecting the final result of the modeled nails.

The advantages of artificial nails are obvious: they are strong, smooth, equally modeled, protect the natural nail plate from various types of exposure to adverse external factors, hide the shortcomings of natural nails (if there are unevenness, redness, etc.), and also serve as a basis for design - from varnish coatings with artistic painting to three-dimensional competition works.

Artificial nails, like natural ones, require care - they need to be corrected every 3-5 weeks, as they lengthen as natural nails grow. And contrary to all rumors, natural nails after removing artificial ones, when growing back, have all the same properties as before the procedure for artificial nail extensions, and in some cases they improve their condition (even out).

Nails strengthened with silk are much less durable. These nails will only last 1-2 weeks. Covering natural nails with gel polishes is designed for the same amount of time. This fashionable and modern way of strengthening natural nails is worthy of the admiration of masters. Because there is no better way to cover your toenails during a pedicure than using gel polishes. They dry under special lamps with UV rays or so-called LET lamps. And in just 15-20 minutes the client has a completely dry coating on his legs, which will delight our client for 3-4 weeks, just like on the first day of the procedure.

Please note that this is just one way to strengthen natural nails. Using gel polishes, it is impossible to model a nail (increase length, create shape, arches, etc.).

Using acrylic or gel technology to model artificial nails, the master gives a quality guarantee to the client from correction to correction for three to five weeks (depending on the length and thickness of the client’s natural plate).

For this reason, acrylic and gel systems are most widespread.

Many students, receiving nail extension training from me, ask what is better, gel or acrylic?

I think that the formulation of the question itself is not entirely correct. Both technologies have their pros and cons, and the task of a highly qualified master is to be fluent in both technologies, because the more you can do as a specialist, the more you are worth on the market. After all, both gel and acrylic extension technologies are modeling methods.

It is the master who must correctly select the method that is suitable for each specific client.

Indeed, in some cases (depending on the type of client’s nails) it is better to use gel, and in others it is acrylic technology.

There is also a misconception in the market that acrylic is more harmful. In fact, acrylic, like gel, are derivatives of a monomer, only through the process of different chemical reactions (freezing or heating) we obtain a polymer (acrylate) and an oligomer (gel), respectively, with completely different chemical properties.

Thus, the comparison of which is better loses its meaning. Acrylic can be used to create much thinner, but at the same time very durable nails, while gel requires a certain thickness. After all, it is not enough to simply extend nails; the client needs to spend a month with them and the nails bring joy, and do not create additional inconvenience. The gel, in turn, has very high transparency, which looks simply amazing in the design. While acrylic has much more technical capabilities: one of the most important and important for preserving natural nails after removal is the ability to dissolve rather than file the nails! It is the incorrect work of the master and rough, incorrect nail polishing that spoils the nails, and not the gel or acrylic. And this list can be continued for a very long time...

There is another reason for the reluctance to work with acrylic - this is the inability to work with this material.

The acrylic bead hardens in a matter of seconds and it is very important to simply understand the different stages of polymerization.

It is necessary to figure out what kind of brush should be for modeling, how to pick up monomer correctly, how to squeeze the brush to get a ball of exactly the size that we need, how to maintain a certain consistency of this very ball.

And then everything becomes simple and clear! That is why it is important to choose high-quality nail extension courses, and also work only with professional materials.

As for the smell, there are many different ways to remove the smell, and modern high-quality monomers do not have that pungent smell that their predecessors had. In case of complete intolerance to the smell of the monomer, today a number of companies produce acrylics that are completely odorless. They are somewhat different from classic scent systems: it is difficult to collect a large ball, they polymerize (harden) longer, have monomers of a different color (from light yellow to bright orange), are laid out with a supply of material for filing, do not have dust during filing, can change the percentage of its original color is slightly greater than that of scented acrylics.

To summarize, I really want to tell the masters that a professional must look at everything objectively and impartially. This means that all systems for modeling are good, you just need to know and skillfully use the advantages of each of the existing ones, get good basic fundamentals, hand placement, periodically undergo advanced training in nail extensions, work very carefully with a natural plate (in no case squeeze and do not saw through!), and also try to buy only professional materials. Then you will be confident in yourself, in what you are doing, and the result in the form of satisfied smiling clients and decent payment for your work are guaranteed!

The gel nail extension procedure allows you to correct the imperfections of natural nails. You can do it yourself. This is most easily done using step-by-step instructions with photos.

Nail extensions help increase length by applying a gel composition. In this case, it is possible to eliminate nail defects. Extended nails do not peel off or break. Due to their high strength, they rarely develop chips and scratches. The drug gives nails a uniform shade and smoothness. This allows you to combat problems such as uneven color and texture of natural nails.

Nail extensions first originated in China in ancient times. Later, modeling technology spread to European countries. Initially, acrylic was used for extensions, but the most modern and improved technology is helium technology.

Thanks to the elasticity of the gel, the nails are thin but strong. The glossy shine of the gel completely imitates natural nails, making the result look natural.

Pros and cons of gel nail extensions

The advantages of gel extension technology include:

The disadvantages of the procedure are:

• When the material dries in a UV lamp, burning may occur.
• Repairing a broken nail is impossible, so new extensions are necessary.
• It is difficult to remove helium nails on your own without damaging your natural ones.
• To remove extended nails, you will need to file them down, but this will damage the top layer of your natural nails.
• The material is susceptible to damage due to sudden temperature changes.

How to choose gel for nail extensions?

Gel nail extensions (step-by-step instructions with photos visually display the importance of this component) are impossible without high-quality material. Both the visual effect and the wear time of the extended nails depend on this.

When choosing a gel, you must follow the recommendations:

• It is better to choose single-phase gels. They serve as both base and top coat at the same time. The high cost of such materials is compensated by significant savings in time spent on the procedure.
• Two-phase sets contain a gel for adhesion to the top layer of the nail and a gel for the finishing coat. Their separate application makes the procedure longer and more complex.
• When using three-phase gels for adhesion, fixation and decoration, you will need to apply 3 different compositions, which is long and inconvenient.
• The consistency of the gel should be elastic, not thick or liquid.
• The composition should not contain aggressive components that give off a strong chemical odor.

Lamps for gel nail extensions

Under the influence of the lamp, the gel hardens on the nails. Without this device, the extension procedure is impossible, so you should not skimp on it.

When choosing a lamp, you should also pay attention to the following aspects:

• The device should be light in weight.
• The material from which the lamp is made must be resistant to damage and falling.
• The lamp power must be at least 36 watts.
• The lamp must be accompanied by a “PCT” quality certificate, which confirms the safety of working with the device.

Modeling nails with extensions

Gel nail extensions, step-by-step instructions with photos for which makes the work easier, are impossible without proper modeling. The wear life, beauty and strength of helium nails depend on this. During the modeling process, the drug is applied to the nails in a certain shape and to the required length, and the result lasts for 1 month.

Modeling occurs using templates-forms or types. For nails with a beautiful shape, the first method is used. Another method is recommended for short nails that are prone to brittleness and difficult to correct.

Technique for nail extensions on forms

Using this method, you can give your nails the desired look. As a result, they can be oval, square or pointed. The advantage of using this technology is the natural result. The transition between the product and the nail looks smooth and unnoticeable. This technique made it possible to avoid excessive thickening of nails during extensions.

The disadvantage of this service is that it is labor intensive. Creating a smooth transition requires special skills. It is extremely difficult to repeat it on your own. This technology is suitable for women with a strong and healthy nail plate who want to give it a different length or shape.

The modeling method can be different:

• The top one is done by applying helium material to the template markings and then attaching the mold. After the drug hardens, it is removed.
• The lower one consists of fixing a template with markings under the regrown edge of the nail, and the drug is distributed from above.

Varieties of forms

There are several types of form templates:

What is needed for nail extensions on forms?

For the procedure you will need:

• Gel.
• Template forms.
• Degreaser-dehydrant.
• Primer.
• Scissors for removing cuticles.
• Synthetic brush.
• Hard file.
• Buff for polishing work.
• Lamp.

Stages of gel nail extension on forms

During the service, several stages are performed:

Technique for nail extensions using tips

Gel nail extensions (step-by-step instructions with photos do not reflect all the nuances of the work) can be done using tips. A special feature of the technology is that the tips are attached and not removed at the end of the procedure. Tips have 2 zones: contact and free edge. The contact area is glued to the nail, and the free edge shapes its appearance.

The advantage of this technology is its versatility. Tips can be used even on soft, damaged nails. The disadvantages include the difficulty of working with tips. They must perfectly match the nail, otherwise the result will look unnatural.

Types of tips

Tips are divided into several types:

Tips vary in color:

• White.
• Transparent.
• Flesh tone.
• With a single color coating.
• With design.
• With French design.

Tips are distinguished by material:

• Polyflex, which is flexible and durable. They are best suited for adhesion to drugs and are also resistant to acetone.
• Tips made of soft plastic are mainly elastic and of good quality. They have strong adhesion to materials and are also resistant to damage.
• Nylon tips are most convenient for use in the modeling process. They are impact-resistant, flexible, but require professional skills when gluing.
• Liquid tips are made of polymer gel. Their advantage is that there is no need to use glue.

When choosing tips, it is important that they are elastic and bend well. They should also match the width of the natural nail. If the tips are slightly wider, they should be filed. Narrow tips should not be used for extensions. This will cause the materials to peel off.

Materials for extensions on tips

To complete the procedure you will need:

• Tips.
• Hard nail file.
• Buff for polishing work.
• Glue for tips.
• Primer.
• Gel preparations.
• Degreaser.
• Finish coating.
• Lamp.
• Antiseptic.

Stages of extension on tips

Gel nail extensions using tips are performed in several stages, which are recommended to be seen in the photo.

Below are step-by-step instructions:

1. Nails are treated with an antiseptic.
2. The free edge of the nail should be completely filed, rounding the edges.
3. The cuticle is pushed back with a pusher.
4. The top layer of the nail must be removed with a buff.
5. A degreaser and primer are applied.
6. The tips are attached to the nails with glue, which must be applied only to the contact area.
7. The glued tips must be filed in accordance with the desired shape and length.
8. It is necessary to cut down the top of the tip to remove the step at the joint.
9. The gel preparation should be applied from the middle of the nail, spreading to the area along the edges.
10. Nails with a frozen preparation must be filed in accordance with the desired shape.
11. Applying the finish and drying it in a lamp.

Nail extensions at home

When performing the procedure at home, you must follow simple rules:

• The top layer of the nail can be filed only until the nail becomes dull.
• You should regularly examine the nail from different angles to see subtle transitions and steps.
• After filing the keratin layer, you should remove nail dust with a brush, otherwise the work will be sloppy.
• Do not apply preparations with a gel texture like regular varnish. The drop is stretched with the tip of the brush from the center to the surrounding area, and then to the area under the cuticle.
• The curing time of different drugs in the lamp differs, so it is important to study the instructions for them.

How much does a procedure cost in a salon?

The cost of services from manicure specialists starts from 1,500 rubles. The price depends on the professionalism of the master and the time it takes to complete the work. The price also includes the price of quality materials. The price formation is influenced by the modeling method. The more complex it is, the higher the cost. In salons with a high level of service, the price of services is traditionally higher.

The gel nail extension procedure is valued for its safety and instant results. If you do it yourself, you should use step-by-step instructions with photos to make the process easier.

Video instructions for nail extensions with gel polish

Lesson for beginners. Gel nail extensions in detail:

A stylish female image is created from many nuances: from accessories to original manicure. Well-groomed and beautiful nails are the adornment of any beautiful lady. You can maintain the beauty of your hands by modeling your nails. This process involves applying a special artificial material to the plates to give them strength and a beautiful appearance.

Basic modeling methods

This procedure greatly simplifies the life of women, because caring for the plates comes down to visiting a nail salon 2-3 times a week. Natural nails are more likely to break. Modeling can be done using several methods.

• Acrylic. The plate is strengthened with the help of a special powder, which hardens as a result of synthesis with the liquid. This material requires professional application; at home, such a procedure is hardly possible. Acrylic nails are very durable and beautiful. The coating is removed using a solution.
• Gel. The most common plate modeling method. Gel nails look very natural. The gel is applied to natural nails, and then to tips (or special forms). Perhaps the disadvantage of the gel method is that it is difficult to remove platinums. This material can only be cut down.
• Textile. Lengthening occurs using silk or linen. This method has become obsolete in the modern beauty industry due to its lack of strength. This technique is most often used these days to restore a broken plate.

Nail modeling

The presented methods involve the use of special templates and plastic elements. For example, tips are plastic “tips” of nails. They come in various shapes and lengths. They are attached to the natural nail using special glue. Then the tips are given the desired shape and carefully polished to make them equal to the “native” nail plate. Then the marigolds are covered with glue and sprinkled with special powder. Tips are suitable for those with flat and thin plates with increased fragility.

Modeling using forms (templates) is carried out on short nails. Their main advantage is that they allow you to give your nails any shape and length. This method is relevant for ladies with wide and downward-curving plates. The shape is easy to attach and perfectly follows the shape of natural nails.

Advantages and disadvantages

If we consider the advantages of gel modeling, there are several clear advantages:

• shiny and shining finish;
• no pungent chemical odor;
• coating strength.

At the same time, if the nail is damaged, the material will need to be completely removed and “built up” again (gel nails cannot be restored). When removing the gel, the “original” plates will not avoid damage. Compared to acrylic, gel coating is less durable. When caring for this model, pay attention to the following recommendations:

• do not expose the plates to sudden temperature changes (the material may crack in the cold) or to chemicals (clean with rubber gloves);
• try to avoid proximity to open fire (high risk of ignition of the substance);
• Do not file your nails with metal files.

Acrylic coating is thinner and looks more natural. It can be easily removed by immersing your nails in a special solution. The material is very strong, so you don’t have to worry about breaking the plate during cleaning. Acrylic does not react to low temperatures and does not crack. At the same time, this modeling method has a number of disadvantages:

• persistent odor;
• there is a possibility of an allergic reaction;
• When removed, the natural nail plate is damaged.

Acrylic coating requires careful care. For example, be sure to make corrections in a timely manner and avoid too strong blows that can damage the manicure. Acrylic plates are filed using files made from various materials.

With proper care, artificial nails will retain their shine and amazing beauty for a long time.

Arch method

One of the most popular and prestigious types of extensions is arched nail modeling. This simple method consists of giving the arch of the plate a certain shape (a high degree of curvature). The main task of this modeling is to create a C-curve that maintains the proportions of the width and length of the nail. As a result, nails become incredibly strong.

Arched extensions smooth out the imperfections of natural plates and allow you to create a flawless and luxurious manicure: from everyone’s favorite sophisticated French manicure to stunningly bright prints.

The following step-by-step diagram will help you carry out this modeling:

• saw off the free edge of the plate (up to 2 mm);
• polish, removing the natural shine;
• degrease and coat the plates with primer;
• Apply a thin layer of gel and dry (UV lamp);
• take the required form and fix it;
• add the necessary bend (should coincide with the smile line);
• create a gel base at the border of the nail and the form and dry it;
• carefully remove the dispersion layer;
• apply the next layer of gel (amply on the border and middle);
• dry (no more than 10 minutes);
• remove the sticky layer of gel and correct the smile line with a nail file;
• cover the free edge of the plate with a base layer of gel and dry again;
• we remove the forms and fix the nails with a vice (to give the necessary silhouette);
• dry under the lamp for 5-7 minutes and remove the clamps;
• cover with a thin layer of gel polish;
• dry.

Note that modeling is a rather expensive procedure. But despite the high cost, extended nails look stylish and elegant at any time of the year. Don't be afraid to experiment - the result will not disappoint you.
