Rox, I really think maybe this one needs to be on a more traditional enhancement. Or you might try a thin layer of hard gel as your base, that would give her a little more strength and possibly prevent the chipping and peeling too!

Anyhoo.... she currently has GIA Soak off gel on her nails. I am having great
success with this on quite a few of my clients so some of her problems with the
GIA are questionable (is it her or product). We have tried Shellac on her an
that is a NO GO way to flimsy and no support. What seems to hold up best is the
GIA.

She always makes a point of telling me how they didn't hold up at ALL and then when I see her she might have two or three that she's chipped at the corner or
minor damage. Usually on the right hand thumb and first two fingers (she's a
financial director working on computers keyboards, texting and calculators.)

Last week I tried Something Wonderful on the right hand and Gentle Primer (from
Nailite) on the left. Friday she calls me and two lifted from the front and I
think she peeled them off the rest of the way. I replaced the left hand. She
contacted me today and said two have split. I don't know if that's left or right
but for pete sakes! I could have been done with her last week she said she
wanted it all off but DANG it... her nails look GREAT with a nice clear  or
neutral color coat on them. (but omg... she's a pain in the butt)

What I'm trying to figure out is... 1. is some of this damage coming from her?
She'll have maybe 2 or 3 with damage and the others look fabulous. I've
explained this isn't cast iron we're putting on 2. I'm thinking of switching her
to Brisa trad. gel to give her strength because she's got some really thin
nails.

Any thoughts or similar situations you've experienced would be SO VERY MUCH
appreciated!
Thank you very much in advance...
Roxanne
