Question for the Ladies

GEL MANI's ROCK! bulletproof manicure and no nail damage or breakage.... as long as you have it removed properly, as mentioned above. (manicurist removes it at the next manicure, and re-applies fresh) You have to watch your scheduling and don't let them go too long - no longer than 3 weeks between, or your nails will grow out too far and it will start to peel, and that's when it damages the top nail layers if you either try to peel it off, or it starts to get pulled off as you do daily activities.

this isn't the same as the old nail gels either, the thick gel that was heat-cured, took forever, and HURT. this is an entirely new product; a combination gel-polish, cured with light, and lets the nails breathe. So it's also not nearly as damaging as acrylic; since the product doesn't starve the natural nails for oxygen, they don't get damaged and weak underneath. When done (and removed) correctly, the mani lasts beautifully for a whole 2-3 weeks, no chipping, breaking, or nail damage. the one and only drawback is there's not a huge color selection; hoping that changes as it gets more popular.
