Frequently Asked Questions: Professional Nail Glues

What types of nail glues are available for professionals?

Professional nail glues come in different formulas for specific needs. Tip application glues are thin and fast-bonding (typically in 5 seconds) for securing artificial nail tips. Nail repair and wrap glues are thicker for mending cracks or working with fabric wraps. Multi-purpose glues work for tips, repairs, and small nail art.

How do I choose the right nail glue for my salon?

Consider important factors like bonding speed (how quickly it sets), viscosity (thickness of the formula), packaging type (tubes, brush-on bottles, or precision tip bottles), odor level, and strength. For busy salons, fast-setting glues save time, while brush-on options provide more control.

Which nail glue is best for tip application?

For tip applications, thin, fast-setting glues like IBD 5 Second Glue are ideal. These create strong bonds in seconds, perfect for high-volume salons needing efficiency. Look for glues advertising "maximum moisture resistance" to prevent lifting.

How can I prevent nail glue from clogging?

Store glue bottles upright and keep a pin handy to clear nozzles. Some professional glues feature anti-clogging designs that help extend product life. Consider products with special caps that prevent air exposure.
