How long do Velvet Extension false toenails last?

In general, American Velvet Extension foot capsules can last between 2 and 4 weeks. This depends on several factors: 

• the quality of the application: a professional and meticulous application, carried out by a qualified nail technician, is the basis of any pedicure that lasts over time. Even more so when the products used are premium, like those available from our Velvet Extension online store;
  
  
• the nature of activities : if your customers engage in strenuous physical activity or are in frequent contact with water or chemicals (household products, etc.), then gummy tips may not last as long;
  
  
• pedicure care : it's exactly the same as for a manicure, you have to take good care of your nails so that they last longer!

How do you keep your American capsule pedicure in place?

• care before applying american caps: nail preparation is the first step to ensuring a long-lasting pedicure. To do this, make sure your customers' nails are clean and dry, and free of nail polish. Next, select gummy tips of the right size, so that they perfectly fit the shape of the plate and won't move;
  
  
• care when applying american capsules: when applying gummy tips, it's essential to place them in a rocking motion, so that air is expelled and no bubbles form. Catalyze each layer of product under UV or LED light for the time indicated on the capsule box. For better adhesion of the product (and longer hold), you can press lightly on the capsule;
  
  
• after-care: it's essential not to touch the gummy tips too much, either by pulling or scratching, as this can cause them to come unstuck. Your customers should preferably moisturize their feet with an oil to keep the skin supple and further enhance the adhesion of the American capsule. And, of course, always protect your nails: try to avoid shocks!

How do I remove gummy tips from my feet?

Removing gummy tips is generally easier than gel nails (as they don't require filing), but it's important to do it correctly to avoid damaging natural nails. 

To do this, soak cotton pads in acetone, place them on each American toenail capsule and wrap them in aluminum foil (for 15 to 20 minutes, until the rubber base or false nail glue has softened). 

Next, remove the foil and cotton and gently peel off the American capsules on the feet using a wooden cuticle pusher. Finally, clean nails with mild soap and apply moisturizing oil. And that's it!
