how to apply and remove heyhae gel nail strips

Hey, How-to-Guide for you

STEP 1

PREP YOUR NAILS

Begin with clean, dry nails and push back your cuticles. Lightly buff your nails to create a smooth surface if needed. Then, use the included prep pad to eliminate any oils or residue.

STEP 2

CHOOSE YOUR SIZE

Select the gel nail strip that best fits each nail. If in doubt, choose the smaller size to avoid overlapping onto the skin or cuticles.

STEP 3

APPLY THE STRIPS

Peel off the backing and carefully place the gel strip on the nail, starting from the cuticle line. Smooth it out towards the tip and press down firmly to ensure it was properly applied.

STEP 4

TRIM EXCESS STRIPS

Use cuticle scissors or nail clippers to trim excess gel strips.

STEP 5

CURE & FILE

The strips cure instantly under the light, but for optimal results and longevity, expose them to sunlight for a few minutes. (or quick 5 seconds with an LED lamp) Once cured, shape the nail strip to your desired shape with a nail file.

*Tip: File downwards to achieve the perfect shape.
