Patti,

I wanted to mention that not every client is a candidate for every service. I believe Doug Schoon said on the forums last week that Shellac is meant for a client with HEALTHY nails. Personally I belive that applies to all these new soak off gel polishes. Any client being transitioned from acrylics or gels will almost definitely experience breakage and possibly free edge lifting in the beginning.

Just as we make a determination if a client will get acrylic or gel, we have to stop and think about of this client is going to do well on a gel polish service if that is what she is requesting. Perhaps this one client - since none of your other people are having problems - is just not a candidate for this type of service?

Pati,

I was thinking about this a lot today due to one of my clients coming in. I don't think she could ever wear the SOG's because of the way her nails are built. Her stress point is half way down the nail and just overall assessment of how they are. Is it possible she just isn't a good candidate and needs the strength of acrylic? She may be getting too much "play" in the nail which causes them to peel. I hope I was clear in describing my thoughts Pati.

Also Pati, what base and top coat are you using?

The first 2 times I thought she might have waited to long to rebook but this time she called sooner. I have tried shellac and now gelish and I even applied YN protein bond this time... what else can I do? No one else is having issues...

I have a couple of questions that may seem obvious. lol

If I get acetone on my "Gelished" nails while working what happens? I usually only use one glove, but have been using two. Also, if I want to do art on the finished nail would I use acetone or alcohol to correct mistakes? Lastly, if you put the SOG on acrylic nails and they come in for a fill, you have to file it off right? Doesn't that take forever???
Thank you everyone for your help : )

I will just take the over enhancement part of this one Della!

You can apply Gelish (eco, Shellac or any of these new soak offs) over acrylics or hard or soft gels. You need to file them off because soaking could breakdown and have ill effects on the acrylic/gel underneath. It should not take you any real time to get it off, just remove it at the time you would thin out the enhancement while prepping for the fill.
