Applying press-on nails

You can find a detailed tutorial with video in my Nail Nerd Academy.

Find your sizes

Choose press-ons that fit your natural nails perfectly. Set them aside in the correct order or place them in a nail box.

Prepare nails

Shorten nails, gently push back cuticles, lightly buff the natural nail, and degrease with a cleansing wipe. Avoid water contact for approx. 2 hours beforehand.

Adhesive tabs or glue

Apply adhesive tabs to the natural nail or a small amount of nail glue to both the press-on and the natural nail.

Application

Place the press-on at a 45° angle at the cuticle, press down, and hold firmly for 10–20 seconds (firm pressure is crucial for durability).


Done, enjoy!
