Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular tape instead of striping tape?

Striping tape is preferred as it's thinner and creates cleaner lines. Regular tape can work, but the edges may not be as sharp.

What if I don't have a fine nail art brush?

You can use a toothpick or a sharpened orange wood stick, but a fine nail art brush will give you the best results.

How do I make sure the lines are straight?

Use a ruler or guide for perfectly straight lines. Practice on a piece of paper first.

What kind of top coat should I use?

A quick-drying top coat is ideal to prevent smudging. Choose a glossy or matte finish depending on your preference.

How long will this design last?

With proper care and maintenance, this design can last up to a week or more.

Is this design suitable for short nails?

Yes, this design can work on shorter nails, but the lines may need to be thinner and simpler.
