Forms, tips for gel and acrylic

Nail Forms and Tips for Extensions

A wide variety of high-quality polymer materials gives technicians vast possibilities for modeling nails of any shape, length, and design. The popular international brand Kodi Professional provides not only the materials needed for this in-demand service but also auxiliary forms and tips that significantly simplify the work process.

Forms: Types and Their Uses

If your client wishes to instantly have long and beautiful nails, but the characteristics of their natural nail plate make it difficult to grow out the desired length, then modeling with special forms becomes the best option. Kodi Professional offers the following types of forms:

• disposable (most often paper);
• reusable (made from silicone or plastic).

Reusable forms can be wiped down with a special solution and used again, while disposable ones are discarded immediately after use. These auxiliary materials also differ in shape. Available shapes include:

• square;
• stiletto (medium, extra-long);
• ballerina (matte, long);
• almond (classic almond, medium, gothic almond);
• oval.

These shapes are the most popular among salon clients due to their trendiness and variety.

Our experts have expanded the range to include both upper and lower forms for nail modeling. Lower forms provide reliable fixation and allow for a natural appearance and nail shape. Upper forms, on the other hand, are applied to the top of the nail and serve as a mold for creating an artificial nail. They do not require glue for attachment and offer convenience when working with gel or acrylic.

Advantages of Kodi Professional Forms

When developing the collection of professional extension materials, our experts focused on achieving maximum practicality and functionality while maintaining traditionally high quality standards. Therefore, Kodi Professional forms are:

• Universal – Suitable for both gel and acrylic materials.
• Marked with guides – This allows for perfect symmetry and simplifies the technician’s work when modeling. It also enables trimming the form to match the width of the nail walls.
• Equipped with special tabs – Used for securing the forms to the finger, allowing material application at specific angles.
• Made from high-quality materials – They do not deform during use or after removal and are suitable for multiple uses (except disposable paper forms).
• Minimize the need for additional filing – Saving significant time during the modeling procedure.
• Varied in selection – A wide range of shapes, lengths, and designs is available. Forms may have either a matte or glossy surface, enabling the realization of the most creative ideas.
• Available in various pack sizes – Kodi Professional offers sets of 100, 120, 300, and even 1,000 pieces.

When used correctly, the modeled nail plate has a perfect shape that closely matches the curve of a natural nail.

Kodi Professional Gel and Plastic Tips

Extension tips may be made from durable, flexible gel or plastic. They are transparent (for material control during work) and thin (for a natural-looking result). A variety of sizes in each set allows the technician to choose the optimal fit for the nail plate. The assortment also includes models with a contact zone for enhanced working comfort.

For attaching tips to the natural nail, our experts recommend using the special Brush Glue. It ensures quick and reliable fixation, as well as high-quality adhesion.
