How to do acrylic nails for beginner nail techs: In this video I give you the best approach to learning how to do acrylic nails. Every nail tech struggles with acrylic. But there is no way around it if you want to do be a well-rounded nail tech and make more money. Because even though acrylic nails have been around for awhile, they're still the most requested nail service.
The biggest mistake beginner nail techs make when learning how to do acrylic nails is trying to learn too much too fast. A better way is a step-by-step approach where you master one part of the process at a time.
The first thing I suggest for a beginner nail tech learning how to do acrylic nails is to learn all the steps in the acrylic application process. Here are the basic steps:
1. Sanitize your hands and client's
2. Nail Prep
3 Apply nail tips and blend
4. Shape the tip if necessary
5. Apply primer if necessary for your acrylic system
6. Apply Acrylic
7. Shape the acrylic nail
8. Buff the acrylic nail
9. Apply Cuticle oil.
10. Complete with polish.
So those are the steps to learning how to acrylic nails but my suggestion to the beginner is first start with getting your liquid to powder ratio mix down pat.
The next step I'd suggest for the beginner nail tech when learning how to do acrylic nails is to get comfortable laying the acrylic. Then from there develop their own acrylic application technique.
When beginners say they want to learn how to do acrylic nails, what they're really eager to do is learn nail art. But it's very important that beginner nail technicians take the time to master the application of acrylic first.
As beginning nail techs there are a lot of things to learn so it's important that you make things easier not harder especially when learning how to do acrylic nails.
