I have also noticed this on most of my shellac clients and I was
thinking about posting about it and forgot. Thanks for bringing this
up.....hopefully we'll get some insights.

I have a client that has been wearing Shellac for 4 weeks now. She
comes in every two weeks, so today was her third time getting
Shellac. I have been doing the cotton and foil method. I have been
putting cuticle oil on her nails right after I push the product
off. Her nails are getting the dry spots like you guys have talked
about before. I have another client that has been getting the
Gelish and the Eco about the same amount of time and her nails
doesn't seem to be drying out. Has anyone else seen this with
Shellac vs the others or could it be that the client with the dry
nails are just prone to dryness? I am not happy with what I am
seeing. If it is going to do this to the nails they might as well
wear gels and have all the extra strength. And if it is Shellac
that is doing it, then I will be selling my stock. Anyone interested?

Foundation Base App...
Yes there is big hope... I have been soaking off the old fashioned
way since day one . I use one of the little soak off trays from
Nailite with a wet cotton balls in it.
1>. bufff shine off first hand and place in tray and make sure
cotton is against nail
2> file and shape next hand and buff off shine.
3> back to first hand, remove one finger at a time and push off
product with cuticle stick
4>put second hand in to soak
5> file and shape, lightly buff first hand, scrub fresh <or what
ever cleanser you use>
6< remove second hand one finger at a time push off product, and
finish buff and cleanse.
7> base coat, color , top, coat, remove dispersion layer
8>sugar scrub hand and forarm,
9>send to wash
10> nice lotion massage
All done and ready to leave in about 45 min. Thrilled to death
that ther is no reason not to go after those always lost keys in
the bottom of their bag,..
We havent had any take more than 10 min to soak off. The time it
took that long was a couple nails that had an issue and were buffed
and retop coated. so there was more on them. The frenchs soak off
so fast that I am still amazed, I sill double check myself that I
didnt miss something.. This stuff is so GREAT.
I am using ECO, Shellac, Gelish, and a few of IBD soak off gels.
IBD has one in a bottle comming but their pots of soak off are fine
as long as you use the base and top from the new lines...
I really totally agree with Rhonda though this IS and atrificial
service so hide the files, and electreic files it is all about
preception.
Happy Happy nail days

I would just as soon drill it off, but let's face it-- most of the
clients who are in love with these products would prefer to avoid
any part of the process that makes them think it's a "fake nail
product," they'd rather have it soaked off.
I have been using the individually wrapped (which makes me think of
one of the old Foster Farms chickens commercials, which makes me
laugh) -- acetone soaked cotton ball, wrapped in foil-- method. I
find doing this means letting them soak for 15 minutes, then
scraping the product off with a cuticle pusher. It works well
enough. BUT one of my clients has taken to soaking it off herself
at home the night before her appointments and SHE made the
discovery that if you soak it the old fashioned way-- with your
fingertips in a bowl of acetone, it slides right off in 10 minutes
or less! So that's the way we're doing it now.
Just make sure you buff the shine off the top coat first.

Foundation Base Application For Fill
To: [email protected]

Hello Friends,
I have a client coming in tomorrow with Gelish on. I would
appreciate a vote of which you all prefer as
far as buffing/filing the product off to apply new, or the soak off
method? Also how much time it takes you for both methods. I
soaked 3 of mine off yesterday with a timer and I am disappointed
that it is not quicker to remove. I filled half the Gelish off and
it took 15 minutes to remove plus buffing to finish : ( I am
grimacing
at the length of time this might take tomorrow : (
Also, do you apply foundation base over the entire nail for a fill,
or just the growth area.
Thanks A Million!
