Tips on using the E.N.S extreme french

1. After you have applied and cured your first coat of ultra bond you are ready to apply the extreme french
2. use a #4f flat sable hair gel brush
3. ensure you stir the pot before every application, this will bring the colour pigments from the bottom of the pot to the top.
4. apply your french from the left hand side of the free edge to the right. do not fan your gel brush. Try not to paint the gel on too thick.
5. after you have painted all 5 fingers, insert the hand into a 36watt lamp and cure for two minutes. check to see that the hand is all the way into the light to ensure successful curing of all the nails.
6. paint the last coat of ultra bond gel,finish with a pink or white top coat for  smooth finish.

Common Problems and solutions.

1. The french is not drying on some of the fingers - Make sure the hand is all the way in the lamp and that the fingers are slightly apart so that the u.v. light can reach every angle. If this does not work you may want to check that all your bulbs are working. U.v bulbs work very hard and need replacing every 6 months to ensure maximum efficiency of your gel lamp, they might need replacing
2. I am getting little round bumps on my french after i have taken it out the lamp- This is simply a case of applying the french too thick, try using the gel a little more sparingly, to get rid of the bumps file very gently with your nail file and continue applying your last coat of E.N.S ultra bond.
3. I am getting gel holes and sliding of the french-there is moisture on the nail, never touch the nails with you skin and never let your clients put there hands near there face before you apply ANY gel. This is very very important, i always ask them to place the hand I’m not busy with on the towel or in the lamp so that i can see it at all times. Moisture on the nail will cause serious gel holes.
