Great for learning acrylic and gel nails
This hand is great. It is easy to bend and reposition. The suction cup is nice because you don't have to find something to clamp it onto. Pro tip: If your hand keeps falling over it is because the surface you are sticking your hand to isn't smooth enough. Try a glass table top or a smooth subway tile.You can easily slide tips into the fingers to practice, and then yank them out when you are done. Be careful that you don't damage the hand by shoving a nail tip in too hard and ripping the silicone. My hand hasn't been damaged by the UV lamp while I'm curing. It also easily sits in the UV lamp. You do have to apply some counter pressure while you are hand filing, especially on the sidewalls, or else your nail tip can pop out. If it pops out you just slide it back in so not a huge deal.I haven't been able to use nail forms with this hand.The forms will not stick to the silicone. EDIT: I have learned that applying some clear tape on the parts of the finger where you want the forms to stick will give the forms something to stick to. You will probably need to replace the tape every few sets.Your nail dust will stick to the silicone of the hand. Its almost as if the hand was a giant magnet for the dust. I just use a nail dust brush with a little alcohol and scrub down the entire hand after I file. It should take you less than a minute. Don't try to wipe it off with a cloth. That won't work.You will occasionally need to clean out the nail beds. After you do several sets you will get some dust and product build up in them. It should easily come out using a cuticle pusher. Just scrape it out while being careful that you don't tear the silicone.

Files appeared used, else very excited
Very life like and ready to accept tip and get to polishing/designing nail art. Super excited to add to my kit. A little bummed the nail files appear to be used but as a tech in training I have plenty so not worried.

I would buy again!
This hand is amazing quality. It looks and feels like a human hand. The nail beds are silicone like the rest of the hand, so you wanna make sure that you have a good way of preserving the nail beds when practicing.

LOVE IT
nails are a material so if you glue tips to it the glue will NOT stick . Very realistic doesn’t feel realistic but it looks realistic.

Can’t be used for glueing a nail like acrylic
I thought this hand would solve my issues of needing live practice hands but the silicone doesn’t allow nails to stick on the hand using glue so it’s a waste of money for me and my needs. Not sure how anyone else would use It maybe it’s used for a specified purpose but It doesn’t work for me and my needs. Visual wise It is a very good hand very realistic looking. The tripod for It is sturdy as well so if you need It for anything other than glueing to use acrylic then i say go for It.

Not practice friendly
The hand is a lot cooler than other practice hands I seen because the nail tips slide right in but this hand is not practice friendly if you want to do acrylic nails. One the hand is really stiff and two the clamp does not stay putBut most importantly this hand does not work well with the liquid used to do acrylic nails . The hand starts melting when the liquid touches it and there’s no way you can avoid getting some liquid on the hand sooooo if you need this to practice doing acrylics you’re just gonna have a melded hand after a couple hours

Awesome
My wife wanted this for practice, others were more money and this was another option. When arrived we could not believe the detail and feel as was almost life like. Good quality and great price! I recommend this for any man who wife does nails for a practice. She will love it I promise. A+

Bueno
La mano es muy similar a la de una persona es flexible y de buena calidad, lo único malo es en los tips se mueven mucho y eso dificulta un poco al practicar.
