After I polish someone I move them to the drying table, and the new client is at my table. So right now I'm learning how to do this, to build my speed, the drying polish time, is now at my table, so I am taking longer. Client is not spending any extra time there, but I sure am. been running behind. Like someone said, practice practice. still in the I don't know about this area. But sure do love the french look with the SOg in bottle!!!!!!!! diana from indiana At 06:47 AM 5/22/2010, you wrote: How much time does this add to your service? I guess the problem I have run in to in attempting to add sog to my services is the curing time adds at least an additional 15 min. All of my appts are booked every 45 min. I am curious how much time are you all alloting for say a basic mani with sog. Or a regular fill with sog added and how does the extra time compare with what your regular service income vs the time?

It's so much shinier and longer lasting than reg polish - no wearing at all. ALL polishes wear on the tips. Added $150 to my 2 day week.

Maybe I am out of the loop not doing nails any more.. but I just don't get the point.. these products are specifically made for natural manicure clients as an alternative to polish...

NOT only did the top coat not take it out, on 2 of the 4 the Shellac wasn't even stuck to the nail under the crinkle!!! I buffed it off that spot and put another coat on the whole nail. It was fine, but took extra time. :( Practice, practice, practice...

Should be so thin you ScRuB it onto the nail. Top coat takes out the crinkles in Shellac, don't panic. It's like magic. :o) On 5/19/10, Michelle Cordes <<mailto:[email protected]>[email protected]> wrote: Howdy y'all! Ok... when I do sog over natural nail, I do base, 2 color, and top. When I do sog over traditional gel I do 2 color and top. When I do sog over ACRYLIC should I use the base or not? Does it really matter? When I polish over acrylic, I don't use a base coat. Should I buff with a 1200 grit buffer or leave it at filed with a 180 file? What has been everyones experiences? And it really super sucks when the Shellac crinkles. I'm just sayin.
