Very, very happy with the gel overlays. Accept that a client who has started to have these done on a regular basis, as recently been left with one falling off!!!

The first few sets were fine, the last couple of times she has experienced the one gel overlay falling off, which has now resulted in her not wanted them done so often :cry:

Can anyone shed any light on what I could be doing wrong, or is it a case that that nail could be oily, and if so how can this be rectified.

I Am keen to get her back for me to do a complimentary set if I can prove that there was a temporary blip on the last two occassions.:rolleyes:

Many thanks
 
If its just 1 nails that she is having probs with then its something SHE is doing with that nail....you cant have 1 oily nail and 9 normal nails...and i am sure you are not doing 1 nail rubbish and the other 9 good...:lol:...quizz her...what does she do for a living...?
 
Agree with Bagpuss, just ask her what she doing? and I feel not really right here because Bio gel overlay not really "falling off", gel should be peel off ;) I alway have a joke like "who did you fight with ast night?..."
 
hi, i have a client whos thumb nail came off regularly. it was due to the push button door handle on her classic car. I now make sure that nail is shorter than the rest, which seems to work
 
Out of all the products I have used, Bio is the least prone to falling off or even minor lifting unless the client is very hard on the nails or if they use lotions or other chemicals that eat at the gel. BS is very delicate and doesn't handle oils or chemicals well.
 
You need to find out what she is doing day to day and how quickly its coming away.

From my experience with bio - is that she will be using something she shouldn't - it starts to soften, bubbles at the sides - then she peels the rest away. But she won't own up - so you have to dig deep.

it could actually be an acetone based nail varnish remover that she is using on her toes - or a detergent or bleach that is on a sponge that she is rubbing down the benches with and because the rest of her nails are ok and it was used a few days before - she will ignore this as a potential suspect of the peeling.

Sometimes when I have started to buff down the nails for infills - you can actually start to smell bleach but sometimes they still won't own up.
