How can I fix a loose nail extension at home?

If your nail has become loose, you can easily fix it at home using nail glue. Just soak the nail in warm water for a few minutes, then spread a thin layer of glue on the area. Press the nail gently but firmly to stick it back.

How much time does nail art take?

The time taken for nail art is completely dependent on the intricacy involved in the design. Therefore, subject to the design complexity nail art can take anywhere between 1-2 hours.

Will baby blue nails suit dark skin tones?

Baby blue is considered a cool color on the color spectrum and is said to work best for those with cool undertones. However, being a pastel color, baby blue tends to complement all skin tones.
