I'm not a Gelish user, I use Shellac ( and extremely happy with it too) .
I had a client in today, who claims she had Gelish done at another Salon, she booked me to have Shellac, but first I had to remove the Gelish.
Note* she was 100% sure it was Gelish as she saw the bottles.*
Fair enough, I thought, and began the soaking off process as I would for Shellac...............
NEARLY AN HOUR I was there trying to remove what ever this product was supposed to be!!!! The Acetone didn't even touch it for at least 30 minutes, after which it became slightly soft , but impossible to remove from the nail!!!
Total night mare!
So my questions are:
1) is there a different product used to remove Gelish?
2) was it actually Gelish?
3) How long would it normally take to soak off?
The worse thing was it took me longer to remove this than a set of Acrylics which I would normally charge for.
Any ideas what could have caused this?
Would be interested to hear your views .
Thanks.
