My guess would be that she is talking about the 3 free polishes
being the " healthy " polish. I have not heard of nail polish of any
kind causing nail plate separation unless it is an allergic
reaction. If you want a referral relationship with this podiatrist
perhaps you can get some info printed out from the Internet and
educate her. Show her what you do and products that you use and ask
her what she tells her clients. Have industry printouts to back up
your products and procedures.
You know what? I think that is a good idea, I am going to do the
same. I'll post what info I print out and where I find it. Anyone
else have a "healthy pedicure hand book" that they have put
together? Does beautytech.com have one? I will look.

in the New Year I will start working with this podiatrist on a sort
of internship and then establish a referral system with her. I
referred my client because her toe nails are separating from the
nail bed, and taking on a new shape.....and it's really bothering
her. Several years ago she went through a round of aggressive
chemo and that's when I first started noticing a difference in the
nail. I believe the problem is connected to that, I don't think
there is any fungus growing under there.

that if she is wearing "nail polish" all the time that this could
have caused the problem, and mentioned that she has seen this many
times before. Her recommendation was to either stop wearing polish
or go to the health food store and get some "healthy" polish. I
believe she is talking about polishes with formaldehyde, toluene
and DBP. So, I hadnt heard that these chemicals caused nail plate
separation but that's interesting to know. The doc said that the
chemicals penetrate the nail plate and seep into the soft tissue of
the nail bed, cause this separation and also get into the blood stream.

been 3 free for many years). These days I seldom use
polish.....most toes I do are Shellac or gel/glitter and I believe
that is also "3 free"
