Kept falling off and cracking
Will not buy again !!
PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING!
PLEASE READ BEFORE BUYING! This is a tough one because I have mixed opinions of these nails. I found the application process relatively easy, no issues using the glue and I loved the look of them. The whole set lasted a full week. Then during the second week only 2 popped off which I reapplied…then after 2 weeks another 2 popped off and I was horrified to see my nails had turned green underneath. I then removed all the others - the ones I had reapplied took a while as they were firmly in place, all others came off easily. Out of 10 nails I now have 6 green nails. Apparently it’s water getting between the fake nail and natural nail. How on earth I have no idea as I applied a layer of glue to the fake nail and 2 applications to my own nail. I am gutted as I did genuinely like them and how they looked, but I will never use them again. V jealous of all of the people this didn’t happen to as I would use them again if it didn’t. Please be aware that this could happen to you!
Customer service!!
So this review is purely based on customer service rather than the products themselves. Unfortunately the products didn't suit me I have very short nail beds and even the extra short meant they were long on me and just didn't look natural but the customer service I received when I reached out was amazing so despite the fact I can't truly vouch for the products the customer service seems amazing!
First time using these nails and wow…
First time using these nails and wow they are amazing , followed all instructions carefully and took me 10 minutes to apply . Absolutely love them and will certainly be using them long term , thank you so much . One very happy customer .
Bought the first pair after seeing…
Bought the first pair after seeing great reviews. I'm presuming they must be fake reviews on social media as the french manicure ones looked cheap and tacky and came off after 2 days.
Ok so mix feelings about these nails
Ok so mix feelings about these nails. So the glue is great and holds quite well. I have used three sets so far. The polka dot one was great and I got a couple of weeks wear. However I purchased two French tip sets, the tip colour started to come off the next day. I reached out and was offered a credit for the one set and was told they upgraded the process to try and prevent this happening. I purchased thinking they can be reused however they can’t as the tip colour has comes off. Also I am unsure how you can reuse them when all the glue is stuck on the bottom of the press on. For these reasons I would not purchase again, I find them to be expensive press ons. However the glue is good.
Bought some Candy Claws after reading…
Bought some Candy Claws after reading the fabulous reviews. Followed the instructions carefully and applied as shown using the glue. After one day 2 have come off easily! Very disappointed
Obsessed with these!!!!
Jesus christ these nails are amazinggggggg. 3 weeks and still going strong. I will never go back to a salon
LOVE MY CANDY CLAWS
LOVE MY CANDY CLAWS! Mine stay on for 2-3 weeks with no issues at all! Sometimes my thumb will pop off around week 2 however I just stick back on! The prep is the most important step! If you don't prep well sometimes they fall off quicker but if you take the time to do it properly they work really well! I work in healthcare so very hands on and they stay on for ages!! Have been recommending to everyone!!
The nails look great but stay on
The nails look great and fit perfect but they don't stay on despite doing all the required preparation. Half off them popped off overnight and the glue has damaged my nails. If you're after nails for a 1 day event great but they don't apply or last as advertised. I'd love to know how all those 5 star reviews they advertise were able to get the results claimed.
Terrible
Terribly disappointed in the product. The nails are too wide and after only having them on for one week, I took them all off as I had 6 fall off and I got frustrated with them. It's not my first rodeo with press ons, however, I still followed the instructions which are not too dissimilar to other brands, but I could barely get any longevity out of them.
Because some of the nails were too wide for me, they didn't look natural and they didn't sit properly so would sometimes get caught in my hair when I ran my hand through it.
Unlike other brands such as the ones I get from TK Maxx, Candy Claws only give you a set amount and that's all you get. Other brands give you a whole range of sizes and there's less fiddling around.
I have found the ones you can buy at TK Maxx to be much better quality and stay on longer.
I bought 5 x sets of nails and I've used one so far. I have no interest in the others. What a waste of money.
Quality nails but remember to use an alcohol wipe
Whilst the nails thenselves are good quality they do not stay on even with the recommended glue. They are no different to other press on nails. All stayed on for 24 hours and then every day there’s a different would come off.
Update. CC responded to my email about this. Apparently using an alcohol wipe before use helps them to stick better seems to last a little longer doing this so updated my review
The nails look lovely, but . . .
The nails look lovely, great colour and no complaints at all with regard to the application. However, I purchase french manicure nails from Amazon that are just as good and soooooo much cheaper. But either way, the glue will knacker your nails! So that part of the advertising by Candy Claws can definitely be ignored.
The nails are staying on ok (4 days)
The nails are staying on ok (4 days). One popped off straightaway but has stayed on since I reapplied it.
My issue is with the sticky pads not being long enough so there is a free area at the tip of the nail where water can enter. In my experience this may mean a fungal infection.
Also the nails are all quite wide for me. I won’t buy again though they are lovely and shiny.
Look good for less than 24 hrs
A bit fiddly to apply, but looked good for less than 24hrs with normal use. All chipped so had to file them. Six fell off within 36hrs despite proper application. All had a rough area at the tip, probably where it gets snapped off in production. Wouldn't buy again.
Very difficult to apply.
Very difficult to apply.
Make sure to read instructions.
I followed correctly, one nail fell off next day.
Purchased 3 set (extra short)
Purchased 3 set (extra short). Followed the instructions to apply. Loved the look of them…until you have to “work”..getting dressed, making beds, folding washing, grocery shopping..then they started falling off! Reapplied using tape..no better…sorry..returning to the salon.
Never buying them again
They look ok when they are on but trying to get them off is an absolute NIGHTMARE. I followed the instructions for putting them on correctly, then followed the instructions for taking them off and they WOULD NOT come off. I pretty much had to rip them off my nails which tore off the entire top surface of my nails leaving them so raw and paper thin afterwards. I am so upset with myself that I purchased many different colours straight away because I wasted hundreds of dollars as I will NEVER wear them ever again.
They were just ok
They were just ok. Instagram made these look amazing but they aren't. They stay on for about a day or two. They in no way replace what you get in the salon. Props to the creator for good advertising making everyone buy these
I was very sceptical about how good they claim to be
I was very sceptical about how long these nails would last as I’ve used false in the past and a few days in I’ll always have several pop off.
However I applied a set of candy claws using the glue and following the instructions 13 days ago and they are still very much stuck down and looking fresh.
My natural nail is very slow growing so I’m not sure if this helps but I’m so surprised and excited that I’ve found them to be brilliant
I’ve brought three pairs of candy claws for the same price as one pair of acrylics
So definitely no more trips to the nail salon for me.
So easy to use.
However it would be nice if they created more designs and not just block colours
