Applying acrylic nails requires a steady hand and attention to detail. Begin by applying a primer to the natural nails to prevent lifting and ensure that the acrylic adheres properly. When mixing the liquid monomer and powder polymer, achieving the right consistency is crucial. The mixture should be smooth and workable but not too runny. Practice is essential here, as it will help you develop a feel for the correct ratio over time.
Use a high-quality brush to apply the acrylic mixture to the nails, starting from the center and working your way to the edges. It's important to work quickly yet carefully, as the acrylic begins to harden once exposed to air. Smooth the surface of the acrylic with your brush, ensuring that it’s evenly distributed and shaped correctly.
