The Elite Contour Technique™ is part of the EliteX Method™ and focuses on creating clean, balanced nail structure through controlled gel behavior.

This technique is built around understanding how hard gels respond during application — including viscosity, self-leveling, and structural movement — allowing each step to feel more predictable and intentional.

Rather than relying on excessive filing or correction, the Elite Contour Technique emphasizes controlled application for consistent, professional results.

Lesson 1: Understanding Gel Behavior

This lesson introduces the foundation of the Elite Contour Technique by focusing on how hard gels behave before application begins.
