How are tips attached to natural nails?

Tips are typically attached to natural nails using adhesive or bonding agents. The bonding agent serves as a strong adhesive that creates a secure bond between the artificial tip and the natural nail. Various types of adhesives can be used, such as cyanoacrylate (commonly known as nail glue), which offers a quick adhesion process and durability, making it suitable for this purpose.

While fiberglass wraps and acrylic overlays are techniques for strengthening or enhancing nails, they do not directly pertain to the method of attaching tips. Fiberglass wraps involve layering a flexible material over the nail for reinforcement, whereas acrylic overlays are a sculpting technique that enhances the overall nail structure rather than attaching tips. Nail glue specifically is a type of adhesive, but indicating "adhesive or bonding agents" encompasses a broader range of products that may include various formulations suited for different applications, ensuring a more secure and effective attachment of tips to natural nails.
