Do gel x feel like press ons or like they’re a part of your body the way nail extensions from nail forms do?
I have a very expensive appointment booked for gel x nails. It will be my first gel x set.
I used to get/do my own nail extensions years ago done either by nail forms or by putting gel on my natural nails that grew out. Those always felt like a natural part of my body in that it didn’t feel like i had anything on my hands I was conscious of.
I’m worried gel x is gonna feel like I have on press ons. The person I’m getting them done from looks to do incredible work. I’m well versed with what good prep and technique is.
I don’t wanna get an expensive gel x set just to hate how they feel.
