Abstract: The process for fabricating a reusable artifical fingernail which enjoys a tight tolerance complimental fit with the natural nail substrate as a result of the method of fabrication. The process may involve the use of, (A) the natural nail [Direct Technique], of (B) a model of the natural [Indirect Technique] as a substrate in conjunction in each case with a secondary substrate forming an extension of the nail, and digit to accept in a continuous fashion a release agent and a coating of a curable material forming an artifical nail curing the acrylic material, preferrably by blue light source in the visible spectrum. The preferable material is an acrylic and removing the artifical nail so created, trimming flash and shaping it to the desired final configuration and reapplying with a non-permanent adhesive material.
