Silk Wrap Nails?

can someone please explain these to me?

i have good long nails except they tend to peel which then makes them short. i asked my nail place about it and they are insisting that i must have a tip but i dont want a tip. i just want my own nails to be reinforced is this possible??

please help!

thanks!

I don't do extensions, i do silk wraps. the just place the silk ontop of my nail and put glue and powder over it. It's not the healthiest thing because when youtake them off, your nails are weak. But I've been geting them done every two weeks for about 2.5 years now and I love them. I just ask for them short and thin so they look natural.

Where do you get your nails done? I am looking for a new place!

they usualy recommend a tip at first then it just grows out as time goes on

you can also do UV gel on your own nails

They recommended the tip with the UV gel, the once my nails grow out, they can just to the gel over my nail.

the thing is my nails are the length i would want so a tip would be pointless... but they wont do either with out the tip

Yelley where do you go??? i think you live by me

They won't give you the wrap without the tip? That makes no sense. What about a gel or glue manicure. Again not hte best for your nails.

I was going to this FABULOUS place in Babylon village called Cara di Spa. They are amazing, but were rude to me last time i went, so this last time, i went somewhere else. If you go there ask for nancy or Julie. both do really great work.
