Welcome to the 'Hard Gel Course ⭐️🌸🫧'! In this lesson, we will be focusing on the important steps of curing and finishing when working with hard gel. Curing and finishing are crucial aspects of the nail enhancement process, as they ensure the durability and longevity of the final result. By mastering these techniques, you will be able to create flawless and long-lasting nail enhancements for your clients.

When it comes to curing hard gel, it is essential to follow the manufacturer's instructions for proper curing times and techniques. Using a high-quality LED or UV lamp is key to ensuring that the hard gel cures evenly and thoroughly. Additionally, be sure to avoid over-curing, as this can lead to brittle and weak enhancements. Proper curing will result in strong, durable nails that will last for weeks.

Finishing is the final step in the hard gel application process and involves shaping, buffing, and applying a top coat to seal in the design. When shaping the nails, be sure to file gently and evenly to create the desired shape. Buffing the nails will smooth out any rough edges and create a flawless finish. Finally, applying a top coat will add shine and protection to the nails, ensuring that the enhancements last for an extended period of time.
