I’m not a nail tech by any means, but it looks to me like there’s a bit too much bulk on the ends and not really an apex. It seems like that could be putting a lot of pressure on the sides where the cracks are happening
I’ve been doing my nails for a while and they’re a little shorter than hers and I was also thinking this. If I had that little product on my apex they would snap clean in half!
@@sarahmccoy4792 I’ve been doing mine for a few years too (probably should’ve mentioned that) and I’m glad someone agrees with me! She knows soo much I’m hesitant to give advice with my level of experience
Yes, that's correct. From the cuticle, they are rising incorrectly. The apex should sit in the back ⅓ of the nail. The longer the nail, the further back to the cuticle the apex is. If it's too far forward and/or the arch line is not straight/it's bulky, it will put the free edge downward over the fingertip, and it will create weakness and is causing cracks Sorry for the bad English
OMGGGG DUDE GETTING DISTRACTED FOR JAMES BEAUFORT IS SO REALLLLL. Maxton Hall is literally AMAZINGGGGG honestly it’s worth the nails 😂😂♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ I love your work and content absolutely stunning 🤌🏼🤌🏼🤌🏼🤩🤩🤩
Same I wish I had just a smidge of artistic talent as a lot of these nail techs it takes me forever to design but I'm trying to take myself out my comfort zone and start practicing some of these hand designs
I have been doing nail art for like 3 years and it still lakes me literal hours🥵 for some nails it’s an all day affair. Idk how people get so good at doing them fast on themselves. Im quite a bit faster on other people, but i don’t have a lot of practice doing that either.
You're always so calm in your voice overs so hearing you being so sassy surprised me, in a good way of course. 😂 I always try to use your techniques but I am definitely still a beginner and they look a bit messed up 😂. Your nails look gorgeous by the way!
Love how honest you are about the process and things you go through, also hats off to you cause u always make it happen no matter how long it takes you 😊
You should try recommending a topical nail strengthener like rocket nail fuel for them. I would also recommend them talking with their doctors about it too. That stuff can be indicative of medical conditions and nutritional problems.
my mom has a nail artist and she doesn’t do her dominant hand. she only does one hand and that’s her ‘show hand’ and the other is her ‘work hand’. i’m not saying that’s what u have to do but it’s a suggestion that ik is def not for everyone since it takes a lot of confidence. i’m honestly impressed since u did both and they both looked incredible!
I absolutely love doing 3D nail art and that’s how I can handle it. I know some nail artists will just outright refuse to do it because it just takes way too much time. Maybe 1hr 30min/hand
Happy to learn I'm not the only one who's super hype to do other people's nails but actually clipped my nails short to get myself extensions and just gave up and now they're almost done growing 1.5cm 😅 almost the size I wanted to add but my natural nails do shitty things sometimes 😢
My nails do that and it's because my side walls are over filed when doing cuticle care with the little bits. When the nail grows out, it cracks on the side.
I do my own nails and I do my dominant hand first because it takes longer and by the time I'm done with it I feel like the other hand is the finish line
OMG I NEED HELP. I have been trying and trying and trying to grow out my natural nails. But I can’t do it at all. I have WRECKED my natural nails they are SOOOO bad. Like unhealthy. If you have any tips or items that I can use and find a target please comment them because I can never order stuff online. Also tips on growing them out and helping them stay healthy like before❤❤ also keep up the good work love yousm❤❤
I’m sick with lupus and it’s effecting me in so many ways but one is im not healthy enough to keep my nails in good shape. I love when I can grow out my own nails but every week they break off super low on the nail bed 😩 I’m also balding at 30 from being sick and my lungs are now scarred but it’s the little things😂(I have to joke about my illness instead of cry)
