How to choose your gummy tips?
Choosing the right gummy tips may seem complex, with all the options available on Velvet Extension , but don't panic! To help you see things more clearly, we'll break down the choice into several criteria:
-
by color: the color of the gummy tips is the first element to consider, as it will greatly influence the final appearance of the manicure on your customers. Transparent and nude are sure-fire favourites: they're suitable for all occasions and enhance natural nails. Pink and peach add a touch of softness, while babyboomer and French manicure offer a subtle, elegant finish. The choice is yours, depending on the nail art you want to create!
-
by shape: the shape of gummy tips is just as important as the color, as it will define the style of the manicure and can even visually modify the shape of the fingers. Coffin (square at the base and rounded at the sides), almond (more rounded than the coffin), square (square shape) or stiletto (very pointed shape)... It all depends on your desires;
-
hands or feet: although gummy tips are mainly used for hands, they can also be adapted for feet! We offer a special range of gummy tips toes on Velvet Extension : they are wider and shorter than those for hands.
Gel or American capsule?
It depends, because each nail application method has its advantages and disadvantages. Here are a few tips to help you find out more:
-
the advantages of American capsules (gel X) : because they're already pre-formed, gummy tips are perfect for ultra-fast application. The variety of shapes, sizes and colors available in our Velvet Extension online store means you can personalize your customers' manicures to their desires, without the need for construction! What's more, our gel capsules are long-lasting and durable on the fingers;
-
the advantages of gel : with gel, it's possible to create customized nails, adjusting shape and Length and creating a wide range of decorative effects. However, this requires real construction of the nail, which is not necessary for American caps! Durability is another major advantage, as gel offers impeccable hold for several weeks if applied correctly.
Which glue for American installation?
The choice of glue is a crucial step for successful American installation. There are several options, but two in particular stand out: rubber base and gel gummy tips.
-
rubber base for American application : rubber base is a flexible, rubbery base that polymerizes under a UV or LED lamp. Apply a thin, even layer to the natural nail, then apply the American cap, making sure to expel all air (to avoid bubbles). The rubber base glues the gummy tip to the plate, allowing the nail to move naturally and reducing the risk of delamination. And it's available in many shades from Velvet Extension !
-
gummy tips gel for American technique: Velvet Extension gummy tips gel is a thick, sticky gel that also helps the gummy tips to adhere to the natural nail and prevent them from moving. Apply a small amount to the gel capsule before applying to the nail. No need to catalyze under an LED or UV lamp, it's effective straight away and therefore quicker!
