Gel nails help???? - 15-10-09, 02:46 PM

hi there i need some advice i am newly qualified and have been trained using nsi gel systems and i am currently using family to practice on to gain more confidence and speed.
i was wondering if anyone uses ibd system and was hoping someone could tell me in comparison to nsi if it is as good or better?
also i am not overly confident om my colour gel sets and infills so again advice on this would be great again i am using nsi and although i passed the practical i would still love advice from experienced proffesionals with more experience?

what problems are you having with NSI....sometimes its better to solve the problem than to change brand and find you still have the problem. x

i agree with angie.
i use nsi so maybe i could help if you are having problems? if you are having problems then its more likely to be a problem with application rather than the produt itself.x

i am having problems with the colour gels i dont know if it is my lamp i am using a 36w lamp but after curing for 120 seconds and then using cleanse some of the colour is coming off the nail i dont understand why as i am doing everything i was taught to do?? after applying another coat of colour the results are as they should be i am new to the industry and i think my lack of confidence and experience shows at the minute i need more real experience!!

if you apply a layer of topgloss gel over the cured (but no wiped) colour gel than this should solve your problem. I always apply a topgloss gel over.
