Your client has beautiful nails, but what a long process! I stopped getting gel manicures and healed my damaged nails with your great advice! I don’t intend to do the gel manicures again unless I’m going on a long vacation and then remove them as soon as I get home!

@emiliaescobar7652 20 күн бұрын

I stopped gel manicures about 3 yrs ago, then got one when I went on vacation 3 mos ago, they told me they wouldn't be using the drill to remove the polish/nor it wouldn't damage my real nail, nope, they used the drill, instead of taking the time to soak them off, I removed it, started soaking my hands in olive oil/salt/water then I used "Nailtique" to get them back to normal, just getting regular manicures going forward, I love how this lady does nails, wish she was in my area, I love the look of gel, but do not like what it does to my natural nails, my nails are back in shape.

Wow! Her nail plates looked so healthy after removing the gel products. No need to do hot oil soak and polish break for 2 days. She really does have strong, healthy, beautiful nails.And Anna has amazing skills to remove all those gel coats without damaging the nail plate. Perfect new manicure…Wow!

@TheSalonLife 26 күн бұрын

Actually they were quite damaged (overfiled- see the red spots) but I know this client really takes care of her nails and CND Shellac lasts on her even though her nails were not in the best shape...

@shannon5142 27 күн бұрын

I don’t think I will ever go back to gel polish. Dealing with the heat spikes during the curing process to the removal is like a nightmare for me. No matter if I go to a salon or at home process. It’s beautiful after it’s done but the process can be bothersome. I will stick to my Dazzle Dry and ORLY polishes. They last just as long or longer than gel. My nails are healthier too! ☺️ Thanks for all your helpful videos Anna!! P.S. your client’s nails are beautiful 🥰

i always file off , its easy to see where the base layer is, but i always use a thin base layer of gel after the base so its very easy to file off and quick. This removal would have taken me about 20-30 min probably with my efile and hand file

I often wonder why it is that gel manufacturers can't nal down removal easier. They're constantly improving their products but removal is still a PITA.

@TheSalonLife 26 күн бұрын

The better the bond, the more difficult the removal. It's very difficult to have both at the same time. Nail techs technique can add to the difficulty though. Thick application or addition of primers where they were not designed does not help.

Anna, have you ever tried the product “Gel No More” from Mini Mani Moo ? It dissolves gel products in minutes and it didn’t appear to damage my nails when I used it ! It would be a great time saver for you !❤ As always I love your videos ! I am currently using the OPI Bond Repair on my two middle fingers to stop some peeling that has been going on…so far I like it a lot !

Beautiful work ❤ So, do you avoid doing only OPI gels?

@TheSalonLife 26 күн бұрын

No, I avoid removing anything other than CND Shellac. The removal of other gels is quite time consuming and the nails underneath are usually quite damaged which makes then the client not an ideal client for CND Shellac which is a quite gentle product. Removing the product gently takes time and many people expect it done in 5 min and not being charged for it, when in fact it can take 30 min and up to 1 hr and I usually discover quite a damage. Not to go into allergenic ingredients issue. Many times people under cure the gels making them still reactive. When you go to file them the uncured and reactive gels ends up on my gloves and acrylates do go through nitrile gloves. Gloves protect from bodily fluids and viruses like warts etc but not acrylates. www.beautyjournaal.nl/2022/02/08/material-expert-prof-albert-feilzer-large-increase-of-acrylate-allergy-due-to-gel-nails/

@chrisroberts8197 27 күн бұрын

I love watching your videos and techniques. Just wondering if using an orange stick would be easier on the nail than the tool you're using? I see that tool scrapes so much easier than an orange stick probably would but I'm concerned there could be unintentional layers of nail being scraped off. Thoughts?

@TheSalonLife 26 күн бұрын

The tool I use it's soft actually. For this type of removal the angle of this tool is better than the orangewood stick I use for Shellac. It takes some practice to know how much pressure to use. You need some pressure for sure, this was not coming off on it's own but too much will peel the layers with the product. The tool is not sharp enough to peel the nail though.

CND is just a brand. They have different formulas - nail polish / lacquer, gel polish & powders, among other things.

Ms Salon Life do you think someone can make a living doing only natural manicures as long as they know how to safely remove all types? I pretty much only see salons and techs talking about their gel and extension manicures

@TheSalonLife 26 күн бұрын

Natural manicures, only would be difficult. Manicures paired with pedicures for sure.

Why should people avoid gel manicures. If it is done correctly, there isn’t an issue. If someone doesn’t like gel nails, then don’t do it. But there are people that love gel manicures.

If it’s done correctly is the issue and it’s too risky! If you get that allergy you can’t ever paint your nails again, it’s no where near worth that

I don’t believe that was OPI. OPI normally removes like a dream, literally flakes off after 10 minutes of soaking! That gel looked much harder xx
