How Is SNS Applied To Your Nails?
- SNS nails rely on powder rather than layers of gel. The process of applying SNS nails is fairly simple. Let’s break it down:
- Your nails are filed and shaped then cleansed with a primer.
- The nail technician applies a coat of resin on the nail plate.
- Dips each nail into the coloured powder, and secures the colour with a bonding liquid.
- The process is repeated a number of times to create the required strength and structure.
- Finally there’s the glossy top coat to give the look its luster and shine.
- It will take about 45 minutes to 1 hour for the SNS application.
- SNS nails cannot be infilled, so when you have regrowth you will have to do a full removal and re-application.
