Michelle.. many know I am also a die hard acrylic.. ADD doesn't help trying to switch systems.. I just could not seem to remember 4 bake, 4 bake, thumbs bake.. and always made a huge runny mess.. I also HATED the fact gel had to be files off.. since the advent of soak-off gels I have been doing my own and quite pleased with the results.. better retention I think can be added to the list Katherine posted just now.. it just takes a mental change and some practice.. so go ahead jump into the fire.. I did :) I really mean it, if I ever go back behind the nail station, it will most likely be only gels I do.
