please make sure and put peroxide on the quick... especially if it did bleed a little bit, and then, all it is going to do is take time to grow your nail out..and they won't put any fake nails on til it grows out enough that it doesn't bleed when the do their filing. its sounds like it is irritated, that's all, i do it all the time, but i can't wear fake nails with my job as a nurse, mine are just brittle.. so it is just irritated..that's all.. just do the peroxide, and a band aid, for today, and tomorrow it is all good, should be
