No the first acrylic nails were applied with a paper strip called a form it was placed under the natural nail and then the acrylic powder and liquid was sculpted on to the nail and over the paper form. when it set the form was removed and the nail was filed in to shape.

What do you need for acrylic nails?
To apply acrylic nails you need... several nail files and buffers a cuticle pusher nail clippers a tip cutter nail tips and tip glue acrylic powder - at least a pink, and probably also colored acrylic for the tips (this has a shelf life) acrylic monomer (this has a shelf life) a brush primer (this ALSO has a shelf life!) top coat. If you use gel top coat you need a lamp to cure it. To fill them you also need acrylic nail nippers IME it would cost you more to set up for doing your own acrylics than it does just to go get them done.
How do you remove acrylic tips?
To remove acrylic nails you will need to soak your nails in acetone which can be done at your local nail shop, or you can purchase some acetone from your local beauty supply. When your nails is thoroughly softened, gently life the artificial nail from your natural nail by using an orangewood stick. Afterwards clean your entire nail using polish remover. The acetone softens the hard acrylic so the nails are easily removed.

Does Victoria Justice likes acrylic nails?
I believe,like any human, that she would like nails made of keratin, a tough protien that makes up most of nails in humans. My great uncle is missing the tips of all of his fingers and that makes ranch work a lot harder. I can`t imagine anyone who would want nails made out of acrylic paint.
Can you have acrylic nails working at Starbucks?
I' don't think so. They adopt the same policy as most food/beverage businesses and ban acrylic nails because of the germs/hygiene issues associated with them. I do see them rarely on waitresses at restaurants. In fact, the pizza place I ate at recently had a food server who had active-length french acrylic nails and I saw one of her acrylic tips stick slightly into my sisters salad dressing on her salad when she set it down. I asked my sister about it and she said it was fine and didn't make a fuss about it. I guess my sis is understanding about it maybe because she has very long acrylic nails herself.
