omg hahaha ❤️ ugh yes I love the way I am doing press ons especially because I've also heard SO many horror stories of clients measuring their nails wrong so when they get their set of ten, there are ones that don't fit. I also know that I wouldn't be able to keep track of everyones numbers and messages and emails. I just knew the 22 sets was the most seamless way for me to go. The pros definitely outweighed the cons with this way

I understand why people want to stick to only 10 nails but I definitely think the best way is to create multiple tips. Measuring seems like such a hassle. Sizing kits also seem like a waste of materials.

Hey, how do you get the length correct. Do all the nails have to be the same length or will they be slightly different Xx

Which sizes do I include in a 22 or 24 tip presson set?

This may have been answered somewhere along the way in one of your videos, Paola ... is it possible to reuse press-on nails? Does the adhesive eventually give way if soaked in warm water so you can take them off without bending them, or melting them off with acetone? Thank you for all your videos and excellent teaching -- you're so very generous with your time and talent. I love the niche you have created.

I have heard that they have when you use a super strong glue, and just place a dot of it on the nail. You can then pop the nail off gently in water.

Never thought about releasing new design options, monthly. Registered for giveaway as Obia (Olegacy Nails)

I have large nail beds and I only wear short and medium nails (never long). I find that the square shape ( store press ons) works best for me followed by almond shape. Stiletto shaped nail (short) are hard for me to size and the sizes are different from the square and almond sizes. My thumb is a #1 in square and almond and a #0 in stiletto and some stiletto nails have to be filed to fit. I don't like or wear oval and round shaped nails and the ballerina and coffin nails are too long for my liking. BTY, you do awesome work.

So doing option 4, do you do small, medium and large, and which extras do add? I guess I'm confused. You just add 2 extra #4's for each row?

Thank you so much for this!! I actually don't mind the last option. I can do all sizes and ship em off!! I don't mind doing the work at all lol I've done them during the Quarantine, and needed to make extra sizes. I just wanna knock em out and keep going to the next set. Haha 🤣

What I’m having trouble with is measuring the tips themselves to create a chart for clients to convert their sizes in mm to tip sizes. Measuring the tip width straight across would not account for the c curve of the natural nail but because im using sculpted gelx tips, doing the tape method on the tip might account for too much c curve because they shouldnt force the tip all the way down? Has anyone figured out the correct mm sizes for apres gelx? 😥

Hi...may I Know,How To Measure the Lenght of Press On Nail..

Oh wow, I'm surprised that I'm dead center between the small and medium "pre sized" sets that you offer. But i wear mostly 5/6 with an 8 for pinky and a 1/2 for thumb. But my cuticle shape is super round so ordering predesigned anything risks having to edit the cuticle shape

If I make set and selling them as is, I am not sure how to size them still.

Hi!! What if I want to sell a set with one or two accent nails but while using the ready-to-sell method? If I designed a set for the accent nails to specifically be on a ring finger but the couple of accent nails I painted does not fit her ring finger, what should I do? I saw this method on this other girl's website where she sold individual accent nails, do you think that would be a good idea? Also, great video, extremely informative and to the point:)

hey paola 💞 hope you see this cause i have a question :) i want to do option 2, but im unsure of what happens if some people have different sizes than the standard? my sizes for most tips are 1, 6, 5, 7, 9. so how would i figure out how to size someone who might have nails like me? i was thinking custom sizes but that would take time and i wanna have some inventory ready as well. do you think the 20 piece sets are the best way to go? this is the only thing keeping me from starting because i am so unsure 😅 thank you 💜

Hey Paola! It’s me again😅 I been using Apres tips for quite some time. But since I always just wear long tips, I just ysterday I noticed that different shapes and lenght of their brand have completely different width of the nail, but I noticed all biggest nails tech that sell press ons only have one sizing chart in their website, and they all have the same mm width from 0-9 (0 is always 18mm and 9 is always 8 mm). I was wondering how is that possible as they sell different lenghts and sizes and for example short natural stiletto number 7 is waaay smaller than long coffin number 7. I’m not sure how just one sizing works for all brands when the difference in the width is so big? I am trying to make a chart for each lenght and shape but I’m so lost as the measurement charts that Apres sent meke no sense..

@PaolaPonceNails

3 жыл бұрын

Yes, they are different. The stiletto one is the more narrow one usually. If you carry shapes or sizes that are not standard to the common sizes you will have to specify that in your ordering system and/or also create a separate chart. You may also opt out of using certain shapes or sizes for that reason.

I've started a quest to do all the nail art designs you've done videos on and from MGN 😄 Also, may I be so bold as to suggest to instead of saying "she" and "her" to use "they/them", "the client" or any other gender-neutral pronoun? I know most people who get their nails done identify as female or femme; I think it's nice to be more inclusive, even in what seems like a small way, for those who love everything nails. 🥰
