How to Apply Press-On Nails with Adhesive Tabs and Make Them Last

HeyxNails offers a variety of convenient, beautiful, and versatile press-on nail designs, which have become a favorite among nail art enthusiasts. Using adhesive tabs makes it easy to apply these nails, while also protecting natural nails and allowing for quick changes. However, to ensure that your HeyxNails press-on nails remain flawless for an extended time, there are a few tips you should know. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to use adhesive tabs for application, along with some tips to help your nails last longer.

Why Choose Adhesive Tabs?

Adhesive tabs are transparent, double-sided stickers specifically designed for press-on nails. HeyxNails selects high-quality adhesive materials to make sure your nails are both easy to apply and gentle on your natural nails. Here are the key benefits:

• Gentle and Non-Damaging: Compared to traditional nail glue, adhesive tabs are much gentler on natural nails, making them ideal for users who like to change their HeyxNails designs frequently.
• Easy Removal: HeyxNails adhesive tabs can be removed without acetone; simply peel them off, leaving your nails intact and healthy.
• Comfortable and Secure Fit: These soft, flexible adhesive tabs provide a snug fit, allowing your HeyxNails nails to look natural and stay securely in place.

How to Properly Apply HeyxNails Press-On Nails with Adhesive Tabs

1. Gather Your Supplies

   • HeyxNails press-on nails
   • Adhesive tabs
   • Alcohol wipes
   • Nail file and buffer

2. Clean Your Nails

   • Use an alcohol wipe to clean the surface of your nails, removing any oils and dirt. This ensures better adhesion and longer wear for your HeyxNails nails.
   • Lightly buff your nail surface to add a bit of texture, which helps the adhesive tabs stick more effectively.

3. Choose the Right Adhesive Tabs

   • Select the right size of adhesive tab for each finger, ensuring it covers the entire nail surface without being too large or too small.

4. Apply the Adhesive Tabs

   • Place the adhesive tab on your clean, dry nail and press down to ensure a secure fit. Peel off the protective film on the tab, preparing it for nail application.

5. Apply Your HeyxNails Press-On Nails

   • Align the press-on nail with your natural nail and press down, working from the center out to the edges. Hold firmly for 15-20 seconds to ensure a strong bond and a seamless fit.

Tips to Make Your HeyxNails Nails Last Longer

1. Limit Water Exposure

   • Water can weaken the adhesive, so try to avoid prolonged water exposure. Consider wearing gloves when washing dishes or doing household chores to extend the life of your HeyxNails nails.

2. Avoid Strong Impact or Friction

   • Be mindful not to bump or scratch your nails, especially around the edges. Use the pads of your fingers rather than your nails when performing tasks like opening bottles or peeling off labels.

3. Use a Top Coat

   • Applying a clear top coat over your HeyxNails nails can add shine and protect the design from scratches, making your nails look great for longer.

4. Check and Maintain Regularly

   • Check your nails periodically for any signs of lifting. If a nail feels loose, gently press it back down, or replace the adhesive tab if needed to keep your HeyxNails nails looking flawless.

How to Remove HeyxNails Press-On Nails

When you’re ready for a new design, it’s easy to remove your adhesive tabs:

1. Soak in Warm Water: Soak your fingers in warm water for 3-5 minutes to soften the adhesive for easier removal.
2. Gently Peel Off: Use a wooden cuticle stick or your fingertip to gently lift one edge of the nail, then slowly peel it off, taking care not to damage your natural nail.
3. Clean Your Nails: Use an alcohol wipe to remove any residue left from the adhesive, keeping your nails clean and healthy.

With the right technique and daily care, your HeyxNails press-on nails can stay beautiful for longer while protecting your natural nails.
