What is extension now

Extension is a way to make the nail plates stronger, to level their surface. Extended nails keep their shape well.

Contrary to popular belief, nails are mainly extended to medium length rather than extremely long.

Modern ways to grow nails:

With the use of a gel without sawdust, which is applied with a brush. This is the material that allows you to quickly complete the procedure. It is important to use a quality gel that is self-leveling and has sufficient viscosity

This option is dust free and suitable for all nail shapes. Although the gel is not very resistant to temperature extremes, it allows, for example, to quickly build up a broken nail so that it does not differ from natural ones at all.

Polygel (acrylate, acrylate, etc.) is known as a material used for short and medium length nail extensions. It is also used to strengthen the plate

It requires special forms, alcohol or cleanser, but the material is easy to use, lightweight and does not emit an odor. Unlike gel, it does not flow, it is ideal for beginners, although surface sawdust is still necessary. Also suitable for all nail shapes.

Folding jacket. This is a combination of the classic design in the French style (with the highlighting of the edge of the marigold or its hole in tone) and building

Visually, this method resembles arched modeling, its advantage is the architecture of the nail bed. It should be borne in mind that the shape ultimately stretches, even if it was originally perfectly round.

A little additional equipment will be required: scissors, a router, a file, gel polish, and additional sawdust.

Fiberglass (or fiberglass), which became widespread in 2020. It is used for accelerated build-up. The material has been refined and now turned into bundles of fine white fibers or filaments

Additional forms for creating extended nails are not needed. The resulting marigolds will be the thinnest, besides, this is a very budget option for creating additional length. Can be supplemented with gel treatment, and sawdust to a minimum.

Beaded instruction or monogram. Especially in demand now are shiny beads, which are laid out on the surface of a contrasting shade

Unusual designs, geometric or futuristic, are in fashion. With the help of small beads, you can form the most delicate and original patterns.
