My nails look really good. I got shellac polish as I like to protect my natural nail from harm as much as possible. I didn’t realise that at this salon they sand down the nail before applying the vanish so that the shellac stays on longer. This means my nail underneath is probably pretty damaged now and will take a few months to grow out healthy again. So just make sure you are aware of this before you go. On the bright side, my new nails will last me a lot longer now.
I booked a full manicure with gel polish but got nothing more than a file and shape with gel. As soon as I walked in I was hit with fumes as there was no ventilation, there was a wide range of colours to choose from but some were £10 extra- too much. I was given terrible customer service and was too busy talking to the other employees. An electric file was used to remove my old gel polish which has resulted in my nails being thin and brittle. I left the salon with damaged nails and a headache.
