I have a question about my acrylic monomer! Why did it turn into a syrupy consistency??

[lysa209]

@MyPrincessNailz hmm well is it just the liquid thats like that or when u mix it with powder?

Hey Lysa, I was just checking out your prep vid, I noticed that you did not push the cuticle back. Do your clients ever have issues with lifting? Or does the drill take the cuticle off?

[lysa209]

@GlitzNGlamNailz the drill takes it off for me, every client is different depending on how hard they are with their hands and what they do, i have some clients that come 3-4 weeks in between and their nails dont budge...

@mrswood1514 I was told the same in nail school but almost every salon I've been in uses the drill to file the nail bed. Personally since I've never been taught how to do it properly I'm afraid to try it on a client lol

the # grit do u use at the begining to file the natural nail....
