Good Morning Everyone! I'm just getting into the "gel color systems", and unfortunately didn't pay as much attention to the past posts as I wish I had. So, I apologize if these questions have already been answered. My hope is that there are other nail techs out there who will find repeats of the answers helpful.
I am currently 'playing around' with a little 9 watt, one bulb light. Is that sufficient, or do I need more bulbs to properly cure the gel? I'm having good results, but with a few chips here and there. Eventually I'm planning on investing in an LED light. I have seen some of the UV lights for $40 to $50ish price range (mostly in the back of Nails and Nail Pro mag.) I wonder if anyone uses these, and if they are compatible with all systems. And does anyone know if all the systems will dry under an LED light? I caught something about Shellac needing a fan in the light to dry. Is that accurate? I saw that one of the lights has a fan on it. If anyone has this light, can you use it with just the UV lights and not the fan on? Is it ok to use with other gel systems, ei: Gelish? I know this depends on the area, but how is everyone pricing this service? We were thinking of pricing it as an add on service, to go along with any of the other nail services we offer....is anyone doing this? Any other thoughts/comments/or help you can offer would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!!
