Silk Wrap Nails

The proper applicaton of silk wraps requires several steps which can be applied to either a nail tip, or a natural nail. The first step is to rough up the nail so that the product adheres to the surface. A thin coat of clear resin (glue) is applied to the whole nail making sure to avoid the cuticle area in order to reduce lifting. Activator is then applied to set the resin. Two layers of silk wraps are then laid on the nail. The first layer covers the nail, and the second layer is placed over stress points for strength. After trimming excess for nail shape, two more layers of resin and activator are applied. File and shape, then drill around the cuticle area for smooth appearance, and to eliminate lifting. Buff, wash, and polish!
