QuestionSo I am a licensed cosmetologist and during hair school I also learned to do nails. I have a client who has the smallest fingernails I have ever seen! The problem is that when I do acrylic, I can't get the nails to stay on more than a few days... I've been told I could be using too much primer, but even after trying that, they still won't stay on. They just pop right off and I'm getting quite frustrated now. What do you think? Any suggestions? Anything would help!! Thanks so much!

AnswerHi Bre,
I understand your frustration, if she let's her nails grow as much as she can
that would help a great deal. It would give more stability.
Try using a dryer primer and file as well as possible
around the cuticle area. Also keep them short to start it will help them
in the strength department. Also if non of tis works I might try gel it is more flexible
so it might work better on a really small nail.
Look up enVogue or opi Axium.
I have a client that just can't wear artificials no matter what I do so I use
Axium gel polish on her every 2 weeks she seems happy with that!
Good luck,
