I use a stick I am seeing dryspots too Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T -----Original Message----- From: Angela R Wingerter <[email protected]> Sender: [email protected] Date: Thu, 30 Sep 2010 06:26:19 To: <[email protected]> Reply-To: [email protected] Subject: Re: NailTech:: dry nails/Shellac
Thanks Laura, I feel I am gentle. I do use a metal cuticle pusher but the product comes off so easy. I will try a wooden one and see if that helps. Since Shellac is part polish I would think acetone would soak through the layers and reach the nail pretty quick. The others are gel and it isn't as easy for the acetone to soak through. Gelish and Eco take more effort to push off and I have to buff off the last little bit. Just trying to figure out the difference here. I wonder if Shellac would come off in 5 min? I haven't tried to take it off sooner then 10.

I’ve been using Shellac and haven’t been noticing the white spots (yet) but wanted his take on the problem in case I started to experience it with my clients. His response: Hi Laura, My guess is that this is caused by improper removal. If the white spots are due to surface roughness, that is likely to be the reason. Improper removal roughens the surface and makes it appear whitish. Proper removal is gentle removal and the process should cause no damage if done correctly. Let them know that forcing the product from the nail is the mostly likely reason for damage. Please feel free to share this info.

Thanks for bringing this up.....hopefully we'll get some insights.

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?

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.
