![]() ![]() I eventually got the hang of it, but if you’re stuck or just want an easier way, give this a try. ![]() My first few times trying it, I definitely wanted to throw it out the window. Nail stamping is hard to get the hang of. ![]() If you’re able to do nail stamping, this isn’t worth picking up because it does the same thing but with more limitations, because you can only use plates shaped to fit the machine and more complicated reverse stamping is out. And there’s no guesswork on if your image is centered because the nail rest keeps your position steady. I’m terrible at getting images straight so I really like that this machine will stamp your image in the same way on each nail so you can get a uniform look. You press down on the stamping button once to pick up the image and then slide the handle back and press it again to stamp the images onto your nail. The sliding handle holds both the scraper and the stamp so when you slide it over the stamping plate it automatically scrapes at the correct angle and positions the stamp over your images. To use, you place your nail on the adjustable nail rest, insert one of the included stamping plates, and paint your nail stamping polish over the image you want. It looks a little like that thing they use to measure your shoe size, but it’s a device that can remove some of the human error from nail stamping which has a notoriously steep learning curve. This isn’t exactly a printer, and it’s certainly not digital, but this automatic nail stamping machine removes does all the tricky parts of nail stamping for you. I like that ink refill cartridges are easy to find which can’t be said for all nail printers.įind more Most Mobile: O'2 Nails Portable Printer information and reviews here. Without using this prep layer the images won’t be crisp. You can use your own gel nail polish colors but you’ll want to use a coat of their Pre-Print right before printing to create the best surface for the ink to stick. The biggest issue is that it can be a little fiddly to set up and that you need to use their polish products to get the best results. It’s not perfect, which is to be expected which anything this complex. This allows you to use the app to position and resize the images so they fit directly over your nail. You just connect your phone to the O’2 Nails WiFi option and then using the app you can browse through designs, upload pictures, and select your image.Īfter you insert your finger into the printer, your phone connects to the camera inside the printer so you can view your nail in real-time. I really like that the user interface for this machine is all controlled through your phone. It’s advertised as being portable and while it probably won’t fit in your purse, it only weighs 3.5 pounds so it wouldn’t be a huge hassle to tote this to a gathering or a client’s home. Holding onto my popcorn for this one as October 2022 rapidly approaches.The O’2 Nails printer is great if you’re looking for a machine that won’t take up a ton of counter space. No post has been made on any of their pages (outside of Kickstarter) since May 2021. Nimble has also pretty much abandoned their social media, despite hiring a dedicated social media person. Some backers were apparently surprised that the device they showed in the older videos was so large, and they were properly gaslight with the response that "Well it's not that much bigger than what was shown in the campaign", which is demonstrably false. Backers have asked for something more recent, which was addressed with silence. Of note: Nimble has still not offered any updated photos or videos since the ones they were forced to provide last year. Some are also upset because currency fluxuations have occurred in the EU, thereby costing some backers 20% just for waiting. International backers are rightfully upset because it really makes no sense that they care about them waiting a few more weeks or months than US backers, seeing as though they were supposed to get this thing almost a year ago initially and haven't gotten anything yet. Well, a few days ago, international backers all got an email stating that they were having their orders canceled because they "wouldn't be able to get their orders at the same time as the other backers" (paraphrasing here). 2 days before May they say, Oh snap! We can't have these to y'all until October because, uh shipping!!.īackers have been rightfully pissed and Nimble has thus far offered no updates on the device itself outside of nail polish selection and a wall of text about international trips for the staff and site visits from manufacturers. January came and went and they said May!. ![]() As October fast approached, the date got pushed to January. Updates - Nimble was supposed to be 'in backers hands' last October. It's been awhile since anyone talked about this project. ![]()
