I guess I'm wondering why you're even custom sizing, because in my head there's not that many nail sizes. Like 30 should cover it. So it feels like when you get enough data, you could just have more supply of certain nail sizes and ship them out without having to like custom print.
People who skew traditionally really small nails or larger use 2 packs and they're not solving for that. What we're seeing is that let's say right now standard sizing, there's 15 sizes. They give you 2 of those. When you really get up close, a lot of people's nails don't fit well, and then they fall off. And that's the reason people complain that they don't fit and they don't stay on.
