Have to say... damn was I disappointed in the IBS NY show at the Javitts. Hardly any nail distributors and they were all mixed up with the hair, etc... classes were the very last room on the farrrrrr left...and most of the nail booths were alll the way to the right..... thank god Young nails was there! From now on..it's only Orlando for me.... Just a crying shame...... Pati 'Good friends are like stars...

I also had too many stress area cracks and people's nails curling in at the C curve horribly. I started doing a base layer of classic gel and then color - and efile off the color when they return. ALL the problems went away. I think Shellac is great for temporary use but for soaking so often I dont think its beneficial to the clients health of their nails. just my opinion ;) Jess On Mar 3, 10:10 am, Jill in Ky <[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) > wrote: > I just stocked up on acetone because our Sally's had it on sale for > $10 a gallon!

I've tried both with the CND removal applications and with cotton and foil and the cotton and foil method seems to be best in time but the applications seem to work better for the excess of acetone, but the foil and cotton method is cheaper being that I can get a bag of cotton and a roll of foil for $2 at the 99 cent store and the applications are $4 a bag...HUM what's a girl to do? > > > > Anna > > > Creations by Anna Z-Jameswww.annazjames.com-----OriginalMessage----- > > > From: CAT BLUE <[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) > > > > To: NailTech <[email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) > > > > Sent: Tue, Mar 1, 2011 6:34 am > > > Subject: NailTech:: Re: Shellac color combos idea photos > > > > Are you guys really soaking off EVERY visit?
