I had my gel nails done at the salon for the first time but I am not very happy with the end results. I understand it wasn't easy to remove my previous hard gel and I appreciate the effort. Overall my nails were badly done, cuticles were not treated appropriately and there's already a bit of a gap at the bottom of the nails as if they were one week old. Also, the same day one of the gel started to chip as the edge was not sealed well. I don't think the gel will last that long.
