drives me insane when they use their hands before you finish even though you tell them not to!!;) but i still get bits off my nail wipes and i use the ones from sq. i've used the ibd sponge ones before to finish off with but not sure if its ok to use them with the likes of scrub fresh. if anyone has tried this, would be good to know. i think it would be worth the few extra pennies to be fluff free.

I use the hands down ones with the plastic back and I still manage to get fluff in the shellac

I had this too but now use kitchen roll... Cut into squares.
Yes ... and not one fibre ever transfers to the nail!
I've found every brand works but the best it that big blue roll (sorry the name escapes me) it's sold as one roll in supermarkets it's fab!
It's been very successful for the last 2 months for me.. Xx

I used to get the dreaded fuzzys until I switched to the soft landings nail wipes which I get from S2.
I found the handsdown plastic backed pads where a complete nightmare for fuzzys and I'd spend more time fishing them of the nails than I did polishing the Shellac.

The ibd wipes just disintegrate when used with acetone or scrubfresh but I use them for the end wIth D-sperse.
They drive me mad too but have just resigned myself to the fact that this is how it will be. I ordered a sample of the soft landings but I still got a few fuzzies even from those!

I use OPI Expert Touch nail wipes as recommended by another excellent therapist I know :) x
Sally's sell them - defo No Fuzzies!! X
After reading a similar thread a few months ago we use kitchen roll for the scrubfresh it works no fluff and if you buy the good stuff you can really squeak the nail, but have heard good things about the soft landing pads too.

Yes also kitchen roll cut into little squares, no fluff x
ive just started using the soft landings and no fuzzies so far, also im making sure after prep that i brush as much dust off nails as poss before scrubfreshing x

never heard of it? I do live under a stone though so not surprised..:lol:
i'm intrigued now as was about to order240 hands-down pads for £15 but they shed fibres too?
regina blitz it is then!
I use Hands down Wipes, not hands down pads and fluff is a rare thing now, the only time i get fluff now is when i run out of towels and have to move onto the New Extra Fluffy ones that i keep for other things

It's such a shame as the hands down pads are an amazing idea but they do shed tons of long bits!

We use Plenty kitchen roll too. We cut them into squares and put them in a bowl and never get any bits :D
I have the worst fluff problem ever! Its the worst when I do gel nails. Like why!?

I use the hands down pads too. But I think I will try some soft landings as the lint drives me crazy from them! But I will need to learn to hold the pads in a way that doesn't affect my shellac. Or wear a glove.
