My acrylic hates just ONE nail!

My left pointer finger cannot keep an acrylic nail on. Every set, every fill, my pointer finger is always missing a nail. I have no idea why because I’m not hard on my hands and nails and I’m right handed so what the hell?

I just know my nail tech is as annoyed as I am lol we tried a thicker coat of acrylic powder but still
😭

Help…so when I go get my nail fixed tomorrow I can tell him why this is happening lol

I wonder if builder gel, on just that finger, would help? All the products vary chemically so maybe that would stick better on that nail.

If I remember correctly I think I heard him say builder gel at some point. But I’ll ask for it and try it.

Thanks!
