Gel Overlay Course - Lesson 5
I wanted to show you an alternative method to creating an overlay. This is especially helpful for those of you who struggle a bit with gel, or just want a faster more "instant" overlay method.
-
Gel Overlay Course - Lesson 6
So we've covered how to apply overlays, but what do we do when the product grows out? In this video I'm going to show you how to backfill a clear overlay (and next time I'll show you color removal too).
-
Gel Overlay Course - Lesson 7
One of the key steps in doing a backfill is removing all the old color so we can access the overlay product. Today we go over how to effectively remove color using a hand file on your own nails.
-
Gel Overlay Course - Lesson 8
Last time I showed you how to remove your own color layer to access the overlay, and this lesson I'm going to show you how to achieve the same color removal on a client.
