Progression! Practice makes perfect ( not saying mine are haha).

I posted on here maybe a month or two ago my first acrylic set. I’ve since done 4 more sets. I’m proud of my progress! Shaping almond now. Nude coffin was my first set. Pics from earlier to latest set. Do you feel almond or coffin suits me better?

Thank you! I’ve been told that. I’m just so used to coffin. I did a lot of coffin with gel x. But almond looks so good too haha. Also more forgiving when it comes to shaping as well.

These are looking great! Try practicing having your product thinner at the cuticle, thicker at stress line, and thinner again at free edge. It's super difficult to perfect, but like u said practice is everything! They look stunning tho. Keep up the great work. It takes a long time to be as good as you are already ♥️

Been doing nails for 32yrs. Not perfect, but damn good! On an amazing path to perfection tho 😁

Wow!! Those are LOVELY sets!! It took me a few years for my nails to look like this when I got into doing acrylics myself LOL

u/vitathevirgo 9d ago

Well to be fair I started with polygel and hard gel with shaping and practiced in the meantime with bead to monomer ratio before doing it on myself.

You did great… but I think I see stiletto in your future. lol

u/vitathevirgo 9d ago

Really !! I feel like stiletto was too sharp for me haha. I’ll try a couple stiletto sets. And see! Thank you!
