I do what is called a "Gel
Manicure." I use a product
called Gelish which is a gel / polish hybrid
which makes it the best of
both worlds. It goes on like polish, but it wears
like gel. It will protect
your nails better than just polish, allowing them to
grow longer. You go under the UV light to cure it between coats. It can last up
to 2 weeks and a Gelish pedicure lasts over a month! The best part is your nails
dry
when you leave the salon! If you are switching from acrylic...I do not
recommend the Shellac brand for nails that are recovering from acrylics,
have
been drilled or nails that are extremely thin, bitten etc. The Shellac
brand
only works well on virgin, healthy nails. However, I will do the
Gelish brand
but I can't guarantee it will stay on either depending on how
badly damaged your
nails are.
