Zoya and gel I acquired another chop shop client who told me she had gel on her nails. We all know it is MMA---BUT-- there IS some type of gel they are using over the top of the polish that does NOT come off with acetone. I had to use my electric file. Does anyone know what this is? She told me she paid $10 more for this. She also told me that they have been doing this Zoya trick at this salon for a long time. HUH???? But not with Zoya....... Anyway, I want to know what they are putting on top of the polish that is a gel and keeps it from chipping at all.... buenos dias, Lynnette PS-- Lisa, you are not asking anything that is out of the ordinary. ----- Original Message ----- From: shannon To: [email protected] Sent: Sat, 8 Nov 2008 23:17:16 +0000 (UTC) Subject: NailTech:: Re: Zoya/gel Yes and what an array of color possibilities out there, I have over 200 different polishes, I cannot afford to buy that array of gel polishes, if this can work and save me money, ( even better, to make me money), then it is well worth a try. Shannon [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi Lisa, I've tried the method with polishing the natural nails and then overlaying it w/gel, it has not worked. It chips, pits and the gel shrinks on the polish... That's my experience. I haven't tried the method where you mix the polish into the gel+then apply it on the natural nails-but it seems to be working for our networking friends, can't wait to try it! It would be an ideal gel method, even though there are lots of color gels in the industry; however, this way, you can use the clients favorite color.

And I don't want to sound stupid here, I am a new nail tech, but why do you have to mix it? Can't you just polish the nail and then apply the gel over top, then cure? Please be gentle with you remarks.

Turned out great so far. Will see how they do through the torture I put them through. I used Zoya- Tess and clear T-3 fibergel. Very pretty!!!

After the last coat has cured, I seal them with a tackless sealer I got from Nailite (I love that stuff!!!) do cuticle oil and go. --- On Fri, 11/7/08, Jacki sherman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Jacki sherman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: NailTech:: Re: Zoya/gel To: "nail googlegroups" <[email protected]> Date: Friday, November 7, 2008, 11:46 AM when you do this do you just apply like a polish and cure 2 min. between coats then do you have to file then seal or just apply and go after all curing is complete?

I just kept mixing in the polish until I thought it was dark enough.

It was pretty see through (can't think of the word I want here) but after abiut 4 coats is was great. We'll see how it works! I will try it next with soakable gels! Thanks for the idea!!!
