I had a gell manicure ans it was the most expensive and the worst manicure service in my life. It lasted about 37 minutes, cost 45 pounds and resulted in polish that is laid in massive chunks far away from the cuticle (like I've been wearing it for 2 weeks now), uneven, cuticle hardly even treated and left flaky. My nails never looked worse. I went for a professional quality, but had something that I could do myself way much more accurate. Ridiculous how such poor quality could be charged at such a price!
