Oh my gosh! I am having people ask me the same thing about teaching them how to do this, it irritates me beyond belief! I have several hairdresser clients who want to offer it and so they ordered the kit, they don't know anything about gels or UV lamps or why they will inevitably end up having poor results! They're not trained in any if this stuff, so what will happen? They will screw it up and give it a bad name just like when a dermotologist takes a weekend course in liposuction and thinks they can go out and perform these procedures because their license technically says they can! Oh and what else will happen? They'll be texting ME asking questions!

I like the Gelish. It has more structure. The Shellac does not hold up as well and is very temperamental. Becky thinks it is because I had issues with it from the beginning-- I love you kiddo, but I am not willing it to not perform. ;-) I refuse to use Shellac base and top. ALL my shellac frenches come back looking shattered. When I use Gelish base and top, Shellac french colors, NO PROBLEMS. Today I got a call from a potential client and she got the Shellac somewhere else. A chop shop actually. She said it looked like broken glass. (Shattered is how I see it) she also had lifting within three days. This is a problem now-- all these nailtechs running out to get the newest product and not know how to use it. I had a client ask me for her MIL's tech what she was doing wrong because it "bubbled". Wrinkled is more like it. I told her I am not going to tell her how to correct the problem. The tech can either pay me to learn or go take the damn class. WTH is up with that? Seriously-- tell her how to make her work better? No way. Anyway-- I will get that observation out there sometime soon. But for now, my favorites in order of likeness: Axxium/Star/Nailite. These three are basically the same except for color. Star and Nailite exactly the same. Gelish- love this, especially the bases and top it off. Shellac--will only use some colors but not base and top. Does not last 14 days at all. More like 9-10 days. I also have some NSI and Dashing Diva, but not using them.
