To cut nail strips, you first fold the tip of the strip over the edge of your nail. Then, you pull it forward and down slightly. After that, you can trim the excess off, which makes it easier to file. Finally, use a nail file to smooth the edge.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Fold: Fold the tip of the nail strip over the edge of your nail.
- Pull Down: Gently pull the strip forward and down a little.
- Trim: Trim the excess strip material using scissors or nail clippers. This step simplifies filing.
- File: Use a nail file to smooth any remaining edges for a clean finish.
This method, as shown in the Nail Wraps Tutorial | Nail Strips for Beginners - YouTube video (timestamps 5:25 and 8:01), helps you achieve a neat and professional look when applying nail strips.
