Having done a removal of some coloured acrylics after Christmas (put on by another local tech, I don't do coloured) and found greenies under a lot of the nails, quite bad on some, it highlighted for me the potential problem of using coloured acrylics for the whole structure/body of the nail because of their ability to conceal what's going on with the natural nail.
If she'd gone back for another infill how long might it have been till this would have been discovered?
If you do coloured acrylics what are your views on this or do you insist on frequent removals etc? I should add there were no outward signs of lifting on these nails so I didn't suspect anything.
And do any other techs keep, like me, to clear/natural acrylic that you can keep an eye on the health of the nail through, and prefer to use a gel polish on top which obv gets removed every time.
I'm not doing coloured acrylics down, they look amazing!
