What are Jamberry Nail wraps?

Jamberry Nails are heat-activated vinyl nail wraps that come in over 250 designs. They last up to 2 weeks on fingers and 6 weeks on toes. They don't chip or fade like nail polish, and don't damage the natural nail like acrylics or gel nails can. Each sheet provides 2 to 4 manicures or pedicures. Jamberry can be applied at home in about 30 minutes with your own blow dryer or personal blower heater.



Blow dryer method:

Get your materials (nail shields, blow dryer, scissors, cuticle pusher, rubbing alcohol, nail file), then  heat your shield, apply and press, press, press....and keep it up until your nails are awesome!

Or you can use a heated rice bag...

So, do they really last as long as you say they do?

                                              
The Everlasting 21 Day Zebra Pinky Nail (courtesy of Tiffany Thomas).  It was still on there another week after this photo was taken.   **Most of us get about 10-14 days out of a fingernail application.  

A toe application after 6 weeks.  You can even see the growth of the nail bed. (These are my own feet on my first toe application!)  

Some may say that they have seen them at the Dollar Store/Walmart/Target/My Nail Salon. These are not the same my friends. Jams will outlast all of those. Here are some Jam-speriments:

This picture shows Sally Hansen Nail Effects on the left, and Jamberry Decorative Black on the right, 6 days after application.

The next two pictures compare Minx, Jamberry, and the dollar store brand. From left to right:  Jamberry Gold Leopard Tip is on the pinky; Minx Gold Leopard is on the ring finger (and the thumb), a dollar store black and white geometric pattern is on the middle finger, and Jamberry Black and White Houndstooth is on the pointer finger.  

This is what they looked like on the day she applied them.  Perfect!  

And this is what they looked like less than 48 hours later!  The Minx were scratched and the tips were lifting.  The Minx thumb had actually chipped.  The dollar store brand was chipped and had lifted at the cuticle.  The Jamberry?  Still in place and looking just like they did when she put them on. 

And this set of photos compares Jamberry and Kiss nails.  She is wearing Jamberry Amethyst Sparkle on the pinky, middle finger, and thumb, and Kiss purple stars on the ring and pointer fingers.

Here they are the day she applied them.  They look almost identical.  She said the main thing that bothered her, though, was that the Kiss nails smell really horrible (very chemical odor).

Here they are 7 days later.  She took them off because the Kiss had chipped and lifted so much.  Jamberry still in place!

So if that still doesn't convince you, hop on over to my Jamberry site and try it for yourself!
