Subject: Re: NailTech:: Shellac imposter


Just to play Devil's Advocate, I use a number of different products in my 
salon.  Shellac for French only (it's just not cost effective to use for colors 
and it's the easiest way to do a French) Star ECO and YN ManiQ with glitter or 
mixed with polish.  We call the service a Magic Manicure.  While the client may 
call and ask for Shellac, we tell them that our Magic Manicure is a "similar" 
service.  I really don't think that is misleading, nor do I think our other 
products are imposters and bottom line, even if you do educate the client, in 
their mind they are still getting Shellac.

Well, here we go.  New client came in tonight, she called 2 weeks ago to get in 
to take off her "shellac" she had put on the week prior, been busy so she had a 
3 week "shellac" outgrowth.  Thinking "Shellac" is "shellac", I book her for an 
hour.  She comes in, lovely lady, thanking me that she found someone so much 
closer to home :).  Oil/Acetone/Foil wrap her up, 10 minutes pass, I take off 
the pinky.....not easily scrapping off, hmmm, put the foil pack back on for 
another 5 minutes.  Lets just say, this process, plus filing off the product 
took 20+ minutes.
