Which condition makes lifting more likely due to lack of flexibility?

Explanation:
Lifting happens when the overlay can’t move with the natural nail. If the nail enhancement is applied too thick, it becomes stiff and resistant to flexing with the nail plate. That lack of flexibility means everyday bending or pressure creates stress at the bond line, causing the coating to separate and lift. Nails applied too thin can lack strength or wear away, but they aren’t the same issue of rigidity. Using fresh monomer helps proper cure and adhesion, not a lack of flexibility. Applying on dry cuticle oil leaves an oily barrier that reduces adhesion, leading to lifting from poor bond rather than stiffness.
