- Preparation: Manicure the natural nails as usual and gently buff the nail plate to remove the natural shine.
- Sizing: Select the appropriate Tunnel Tip size for each finger. The tip should align perfectly with the side edges (sidewalls) of the natural nail.
- Priming: Apply F.O.X Nail Prep, followed by F.O.X Ultrabond (non-acid primer) to the natural nail.
- Base Coat: Apply a thin layer of a flexible F.O.X Base (matched to the natural nail's flexibility) and cure.
- Application: Apply a thin layer of the same base to the contact area (the edge) of the tip. Place the tip onto the free edge of the natural nail, pressing gently to ensure no air bubbles are trapped.
- Fixing: Flash-cure with a small handheld LED lamp to set the position, then perform a full 60-second cure in a 48W UV/LED lamp.
- Refinement: Wipe the sticky dispersion layer and file the tip into your final desired shape. Buff the surface of the tip to ensure adhesion for the next layer.
- Foundation: Apply a thin layer of transparent base over the prepared tip and cure.
- Building: Apply your chosen builder material (F.O.X Builder Gel or Acrygel) over the tip, spreading it evenly to create the correct anatomical curvature (apex).
- Finishing: After curing the builder material, remove the tacky layer and refine the surface with a file if necessary. Apply your F.O.X Hybrid Gel Polish and seal with your favorite F.O.X Top Coat.

Sharp Geometry & Superior Strength
For the technician who demands a crisp, "straight-out-of-the-mold" look, the F.O.X Tunnel Tips Square are the perfect foundation. These tips are designed to create a bold, symmetrical square shape with perfectly parallel sidelines. The advanced "Tunnel" design provides a reinforced framework that resists bending and snapping, making them ideal for clients who prefer active, long-length extensions. Easy to cut and shape, these tips blend seamlessly into the natural nail for a professional, high-end finish.

Shape: Classic/Sharp Square
-
Quantity: 506 pcs (Bulk Pack)
-
Best For: Crisp square sets, "Duck" nails, or as a base for custom coffin shaping.
Pro Tips for Master Technicians:
-
Seamless Blending: Use a fine-grit file or an e-file bit at a low speed to thin the "step" where the tip meets the natural nail. A smoother transition here prevents lifting and ensures a natural look.
-
The Power of the Pinch: These tips are designed to be "pinched" during the gel polymerization process. If you want a more dramatic C-curve, use a pinching tool briefly before the gel is fully cured.
-
Size Matters: If you are between sizes, always choose the larger tip and file the sides down slightly for a custom fit. A tip that is too small will put pressure on the nail plate and lead to premature lifting.
