coloured gels - 31-05-06, 07:35 AM

i would really like to use coloured gels in my salon, but it is all new to me.
i've just done my brisa gel course and i love it, but my clients have asked for coloured gels like what biosculpter do.
is there any other system that is as good and where can i get them from?
and would i need to do another course?

Hi

You need to ask yourself what type of gel you want to use first before you try any, if your happy with brisa which is a buff off gel then go for a buff off colour i do beleive that IBD and light elegance the 2 mentioned above are buff off.

If you are wanting a soak off gel then i would reccommend biosculpture, you would have to do training with them but its usually only a day for already qualified techs plus an assesment day.

Nailite inc has coloured gels, no course required. They are assuming that their clients are already licensed/trained.
May be used with any line.
Prices VERY reasonable.
They also have pure colour powders that may be added to gels or acrylics if you want to custom blend your own.

The gels are buff offs.

I would recommend Biosculpture too...it may be a distance for the training but the product is worth it. I get so many people ask for it by name now, but have never had anyone ask about another gel.
