How to apply press-on nails?
Step 1 - FILE
File your nails, ensuring the entire nail bed is filed to create a rough surface. This step is crucial for helping your nails stay on longer
Step 2 - CLEAN
Just as important as the first step, make sure all dust is completely removed from your nails. Clean your nail with the alcohol wipes.
Step 3- APPLY
Apply the glue to your nails and to the press-on nails (for best results, use Hamiko Glue).
The glue will dry fast so apply directly the press on by placing the nails at 45-degree & press down for 20 seconds. Repeat the process to all of your nails.
How to remove press-on nails?
Don’t force the nails off. Soak them in a mix of warm water, with soapy and oil. Or use a gentle nail removal solution to dissolve the glue and remove them without damaging your natural nails.
Avoid peeling or popping the nails off, as this can damage both the press-ons and your natural nails.
