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 the dual form size that best fits each nail.
7. Dispense your gel product (builder gel, hard gel, or poly gel) into the dual form. Use a suitable tool and slip solution to spread the gel evenly inside the form.
8. Place the dual form onto the nail starting from the cuticle end, pressing gently to secure a close fit. Remove any excess gel around the edges with a brush and slip solution.
9. Flip the hand and smooth the underside of the nail with your brush.
10. Cure under LED or UV lamp according to your product’s instructions.
11. Once cured, gently squeeze the tabs on the dual form to release it from the extension.
12. Shape and file the nail to your desired finish, cleanse the surface.
13. 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.
14. 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

1. Dual forms are reusable. After each use, clean thoroughly with alcohol wipes and store safely.
2. To remove the gel extension, gently file off the product, using a nail file or e-file.
3. 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.
4. After soaking, use a wooden cuticle stick or cuticle pusher to gently remove the remaining product without applying pressure to the natural nail.
5. If needed, lightly buff the surface with a 180 grit buffer to smooth and finish the nail.
6. Complete the treatment with a nourishing cuticle oil and hand cream.
