How to Attach Clip-On Nails

Published in Nail Application 2 mins read

Applying clip-on nails is straightforward. Here's how:

Preparing Your Nails

Before applying, ensure your natural nails are clean and dry. Pushing back your cuticles creates space for a better fit and longer-lasting application. A video tutorial demonstrates this process: [link to video showing cuticle pushing] (Note: No direct video link was provided, this is a placeholder).

Applying the Clip-On Nails

  1. Select the right size: Choose a clip-on nail that closely matches the size of your natural nail.
  2. Apply the nail: Carefully position the clip-on nail onto your natural nail, aligning it with your cuticle.
  3. Press firmly: Press down firmly on the nail, ensuring it's securely attached to your natural nail. The video mentions pushing the nail "almost under the cuticle that you pushed," suggesting a close fit is crucial for adhesion.
  4. Check for stability: Gently test the nail to ensure a secure fit. If it feels loose, readjust the position and press firmly again.

Tips for Success

  • Clean nails provide better adhesion.
  • Proper cuticle preparation is key for a comfortable and secure fit.
  • Press firmly and evenly to ensure a strong bond.
