1. Start by disinfecting both your hands and your client’s hands. Wear gloves. Assess the condition of the nails to ensure there are no contraindications for the service.
2. Gently push back the cuticles using a cuticle pusher or orange stick. If necessary, use a Staleks e-file bit to remove excess cuticles and tidy the nail plate.
3. Lightly matt the natural nail using a 150 or 180 grit buffer. Ensure the surface is smooth and even. Remove all dust with a soft brush.
4. Cleanse the nails using a lint-free wipe soaked in an alcohol-based nail prep solution to remove all oils and debris.
5. Apply Dolla Nails Pro PH Bond to the natural nail to balance pH and promote adhesion. If working on oily or problem-prone nails, apply Dolla Nails Pro Primer sparingly, avoiding the skin and cuticle area.
6. Choose a tip size that fits snugly on the free edge without overlapping the sides.
7. Apply nail glue on the edge tip’s contact area.
8. Press the tip onto the natural nail’s free edge and hold for a few seconds until secure.
9. Apply builder gel, hard gel, or acrylic over the tip to sculpt your desired length and shape.
10. Cure under LED or UV lamp according to your product’s instructions.
11. Shape and file the nail to your desired finish, cleanse the surface.
12. Continue with gel polish or design of your choice, following standard gel polish steps: two thin coats, each cured for 30-60 seconds depending on pigment, followed by your preferred top coat.
13. Finish the service with cuticle oil and hand cream. For an extra glossy finish, gently buff the top with a dry cotton pad.

REMOVAL PROCESS

There are several effective ways to remove edge tips, and the best method often depends on the service performed.

1. Begin by disinfecting both your hands and your client’s. Assess the nails for any signs of damage or lifting.
2. Use a nail extension cutter or tip cutter to reduce the length of the tips.
3. Using an e-file, gently file down the product in controlled layers until you are close to the natural nail. Be careful not to overfile or create heat spikes.
4. Any residual product on the nail plate can be softened using an acetone-based soak-off solution. Soak a lint-free pad, apply it with foil or soak-off clips, and allow it to sit for 5-10 minutes.
5. After soaking, use a wooden cuticle stick or cuticle pusher to gently remove the remaining product without applying pressure to the natural nail.
6. If needed, lightly buff the surface with a 180 grit buffer to smooth and finish the nail.
7. Complete the treatment with a nourishing cuticle oil and hand cream.
