Assuming your talking about Acrylic/Gel Nails,


- They take a long clear square nail and glue in on the end of your fingernail with nail glue.


- They then cut the nails to your desired length, drill and file them.


- Put some type of oil on them because teh drilling and filing makes your nails dry.


- They then mix acrylic powder and solution together to make the shiny gel look that fake nails have and apply it to your nails.


- They airbrush the color you want your nail tips to be (usually white)


- They apply shiny clear coat gel and put your hands in the machine to dry completely, and done !





They will continue to grow out when your new nails grow in. Which will probably be around 2 weeks to a month and a half to really notice. When you start to notice them growing in you can go back to the nail salon and get them ';Filled'; Which usually costs less than half the money you paid for the nails the first time.





To me they don't look natural but i think they look great !
