When doing or getting acrylics / gels, do you prefer tips or forms? :)
I usually do tips because that's the way I learned but I think I'm going to start doing the forms! Thoughts?

I don't know that technique... I always do mine on my natural nails since they are pretty strong and long. do you have pictures of the end result?

That's pretty cool... I've seen it used as an extension when someone breaks a nail or something similar... but maybe you should go with forms.. its different and I'm sure that's a good enough reason to try it out lol.

Ahh Traci that's what I'm afraid of! 🙈🙈🙈 Watching tutorials online they do it perfect in like 2 seconds but doing it myself will prolly take an hour each nail hahaha!

Forms are too complicated to me. I start with tips and as my own nail grows I continue to apply it on my natural nail.
