The Invisible Nail Repair kit includes clear plasters for temporarily stabilizing nail splits or chips. These will keep your nail secure until you can perform the permanent full repair using silk nail wraps.

Nail wrapping is quick and easy, and with a little practice you can professionally repair a nail in just a few minutes. You can also use the silk wraps over complete nails to strengthen or whilst a damaged nail grows out.
Repairing a whole nail
If you need to repair a badly broken, split, or torn nail or if you need to strengthen a whole nail because it is weak or damaged, you can use the silks to wrap the entire nail.

Repairing a small area
If you need to repair a small split or chipped area you can use a small silk patch.

Replacing lost nail extensions
  • Cut and file the free edge of the natural nail to a fairly uniform length and shape with a grit file.
  • Select a tip for each nail that fits neatly against the free edge of your existing natural nail tip end. Prepare the nail with the four basic steps, push, buff, brush and prep. Using the glue press and hold until it bonds.
  • Blend the seam between the extension and the natural nail with a grit file and by buffing over lightly with the white sanding block until the seam is barely visible.

Infilling
As your natural nail grows over 2-3 weeks you will find that you will have a gap between the cuticle area and the silk. If you want to keep the nail wrapped, for instance if it is weak, you need to ‘infill’ this area.
