How to prepare the nail plate for extension?
The nail extension stencils that we have prepared for you will allow you to work freely with both acrylic and gel.
If you are just taking your first steps in the world of manicure, it is better to opt for a ready-made gel, because it is easier to apply. It is true that it should be hardened in a UV or LED lamp, but acrylic may be difficult to apply at first. Especially because it hardens on its own.
Regardless of which method you ultimately choose, proper preparation of the nail plate is very important. Namely, it will directly affect both the appearance of the styling itself and its later durability. And you certainly want nails that simply - look good and do not get damaged quickly.
In the first step, take care of proper cleaning of the nail plate. Remove any old styling, give the nails the desired shape, file evenly the free edge of the nail. Also remember to remove the cuticles - you can use a wooden stick or a metal pusher for this purpose.
With the nail plate prepared in this way, you can proceed to the second step, which will consist of matting it. You can use a classic buffing block, a file with the appropriate grit or a milling machine. Do not use the latter tool, however, if you are extending your nails for the first time, because it is sometimes very easy to file the nail plate with a milling machine. Why is proper matting of nails so important? Thanks to it, you will effectively improve the adhesion of the products used later, increase the durability of the styling, and effectively remove the cuticles remaining on your fingers.
In the third step, you need to degrease the plate using an appropriate preparation. Degreasing provides better adhesion and durability of the manicure, and also effectively removes impurities from the plate.
We are getting close to the end! In step 4, reach for an acid or acid-free primer. Its main task is also to increase the adhesion of the products used, as well as to disinfect the plate.
Now you can start extending your nail plate.

Nail extensions using a template step by step
You already know how to prepare your nail plate for nail extensions, and what templates you can choose from in our drugstore. Now check how to approach nail extensions so that the effect you get meets your expectations to the maximum.
Let's assume that you are opting for the aforementioned gel method, which we once again recommend to people who want to extend their nail plate for the first time. Note that the templates available in our offer have a special geometric grid and auxiliary lines, thanks to which you will find it much easier to determine the desired nail length. Before you reach for the gel, make sure to place the template under your nails as best as possible. You will be helped in this by, among other things, a circle, also called an egg, which sticks to the bottom of the template.
Peel the template from the original foil and do it in such a way that the tip of your natural nail plate is on top of the template and adheres to it firmly. The form should become a kind of "scaffolding" for the nail extension. Check that the vertical line of the template runs along the finger. To stiffen the material, use the aforementioned circle in the center of the template. Also remember to glue the lower edges of the template evenly together after placing it.
Now you can start making a skeleton that will allow you to build your nails. Depending on the consistency of the gel you have chosen, remember to harden the plate well. It is best to harden the thumb one at a time to prevent the product from spilling.
After the entire thing, i.e. all nails, have cured, wash them well with a cleaner and start giving them the desired shape. Level all the resulting plates so that your styling is even and looks impeccable. Then, be sure to matt them and you can now move on to making classic hybrid nails in the shade you are interested in.
