What kind of nail should you make if your guest is late?
One of the most unpleasant cases for the professional, which unfortunately happens quite often, is when the guest arrives late for the appointment. Regardless of whose fault it is, or whether it is anyone's fault at all, we try to find a solution with which our guest can leave happily but at the same time, we must keep in mind that the delay does not affect the appointment of the next guest. Let's see what practices we have available for such cases:
COLORED GEL POLISH BASES
In the case of a guest with gel polish, the application of the color after the base coat takes about a third of the service time, so in the event of a delay, we significantly speed up the process if we do not choose a gel polish color but a colored gel polish base, which allows us to make in a single step a base layer, apex and color. The choice of colors can't be said to be small: in addition to the many nude colors we can find milky white, pastel colors, for example pink, blue, purple, green, as well as effects enriched with small glitters. After curing them, they only need to be covered with the flexible top gel and the nice, durable gel polish is ready.
ARTIFICIAL NAILS MADE OF COVER MATERIALS
The situation is similar in the case of artificial nails, here too we can use nude-colored or glitter materials: for example Build&fill gels, Cool protein cover gels, Latte white gel, Milky white soft gel, Acrylgel Cover, Acrylgel Prime cover and glitter materials. After we file the surface there is no need for any other color, the application of the top gel creates a beautiful nail, thus saving approximately 20-25% of the time.
REVERSE TIP
If you don't need filling but sculptinh and you're short on time, then reverse tip or acrylgel tip technique can be a great help, where we apply the material (acrylgel, acrylic or a thicker builder gel) to inside of the tip, after curing, the tip is removed from the surface of the nail, so we practically get a sculpted nail, which can be used with the above-mentioned cover or glitter materials for an even faster process, so compared to normal sculpting, we can save up to 30-40% on the service time.
FULL COVERAGE TIP
Also, in the event that our guest wants longer nails but wants a selected color from among the gel polishes, we can confidently recommend the full coverage tips for speeding up, where you can choose from 4 types of shapes and create strong, yet thin nails in seconds. After creating matte surface of the tip, we only have to apply the selected color and the flexible cover, so we can create the nails in roughly a little more time than a gel polish.
So we don't have to despair even if the agreed time has already passed, but our guest hasn't arrived yet, because being smart and prepared for these cases, we can easily find a solution with which our guest is satisfied and we don't slip into the next appointment.
