I'll just throw in my 2 cents here..I applied Axxium's I'm Not Really A Waitress on a new client who has very long natural nails. The instructions that come with the product say that it should only be used on natural nails that are no longer than 1/8 " from the smile line, that natural nails are in good condition, and natural nails are not overly thin, flexible or damaged. If longer than that, they recommend the gel polish should be used over a foundation of Axxium gels. Of course, I read that part after I'd already sent her home after the service. I didn't hear from her again for 6 weeks and I was convinced she'd experienced problems because the nails were too long for that type of application. When she returned 6 weeks later, the polish was all still intact. Some of you have seen the picture I posted of her 6-week nails on my Facebook page. Her own nails are very strong and thick, definitely not flexible or thin, and I'm convinced this prevented any issues.

Lynnette, It should work fine on those clients...when significant length is mentioned I think it's more about extending the natural nail to give it length.

Alice, Yes- it was the SOG that peeled off the acrylic. I realize we cannot use the SOG to extend, but Deb said not as an overlay for significant length. I have clients with very long natural nails that I would love to do this on but want to be certain they will be fine. I think I will do a FREEBIE for my regular clients for the first time to see how they fare. I appreciate all the input.

Lynnette, It really does depend on the wearer. But as a general rule SOG doesn't work well for sculpting long nails. It's wonderful as an overlay on nails such as Deb's. Some SOG's do have building properties to them BUT again not for adding significant length, more so for sculpting an "active" length nail. When you say you didn't have success with using SOG over ac because it peeled...are you referring to SOG polish?

Okay- then this is confusing. *some companies say you can use their SOG over acrylic and gel. -- I tried this and it peeled. *Deb-you have long nails and are wearing them with no problems?!? *what would you consider significant length NOT good for the SOG?

SOG's are more flexible for sure.. some more than others.. SOG's are not really made to be an overlay for any significant length..
