How to Create a Gel Overlay 1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Prep those nails! Follow our OPI Salon Pro prep basics. OPTIONAL: Customize your service for longer wear - apply a coat of Bondex Bonding Agent and allow to dry. Skip this step if a HEMA-free service is desired. For a HEMA-free and soak-off friendly service, skip Bondex application and apply a thin coat of GelColor Super Base Base Coat to all 5 nails. Cure for 30 seconds in the OPI Star Light. 2. Apply a thin coat of GELevate 4-in-1 Builder in Clear (Shade: OPI'm Flawless) to all 5 nails leaving a thin free margin around the perimeter of the nail. Cure for 30 seconds in the Star Light Lamp. 3. Pick up a small bead of GELevate 4-in-1 Builder in the shade of your choice on one side of the brush. Place the bead in the cuticle area and gently nudge the product towards the cuticle and from side to side leaving a small free margin. 4. Using lighter pressure, guide the gel from side to side while pulling forward to create the apex and leaving a larger free margin at the sides. 5. Use the corner of the brush to guide the gel down the sidewalls leaving a small free margin. 6. Review the structure of the nail and use the corner of the bottle brush to perfect the apex and shape. PRO TIP: For more precision, use a liner brush to refine. Flip the nail upside down for 3-5 seconds to allow the apex to smooth. 7. Flash cure the nail as needed with the Lightning Flash Cure Gel Lamp. 8. Repeat steps 3-7 on remaining nails until all nails are complete. Cure for 60 seconds (if using the clear builder, cure for 30 seconds) in the Star Light Gel Lamp. Repeat on the other hand. OPTIONAL: If shape refinement is needed, remove gel residue with a nail wipe saturated in N.A.S. 99. OPTIONAL: Freshly applied builder needs a lighter touch and will file easily using a 240 grit file and padded buffer. Refine shape with a 240-grit file, followed by a 240-grit buffer or an e-file. Cleanse nails thoroughly with a nail wipe saturated with N.A.S. 99 Cleansing Solution. 9. Finish nails with your choice of GelColor Shade and Super Gloss Top Coat. 10. Remove gel residue with a nail wipe saturated with N.A.S. 99 Cleansing Solution. 11. Apply a drop of ProSpa Nail & Cuticle Oil to the base of each nail and massage in. How to Fill Gel Overlays PRO TIP: Assess the nails for service breakdown, checking under the extension edge to ensure the nail is securely attached. Check for pocket lifts, perimeter lifting and any visible cracks in the product to determine if a simple or more technical rebalance is needed. 1. BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Prep those nails! Follow our OPI Salon Pro prep basics. 2. File prep the nails. Remove GelColor if needed. Use a 100/180-grit file or an e-file with a course bit on medium-high speed to remove the color from the nail. Brush away any dust. 3. If desired, reduce the length of the nail and reshape as desired. 4. Assess the new growth and apex placement to determine amount of product thickness to remove. 5. Reduce the thickness of the product on the nail following the contour of the nail. Reduce between 30-50% based on nail growth and apex growth. 6. Once product has been reduced, perform nail prep to remove cuticle and cleanse the nail. Refer to OPI Salon Prep steps to complete.
