Goodbye acrylics

[Brooke_09]

so after another bad reaction this week I've had enough of using acrylics buy how do I tell my clients without them getting annoyed??

I thought something along the lines of sorry for the inconvenience but I will no longer be offering acrylics due to the fact I am allergic to the products ..........

Tough one. Possibly give them a couple of alternative nail techs they can use instead (who are JUST nail techs, and not competition for you) I don't offer enhancements / gels / acrylics and it seems to work well having a 'buddy' nail tech I can advise people to go to rather than just saying "I don't do that" It also means clients stick with me for all their other treatments. Good luck

thats the problem as I don't think there are any well not that I know of ...

Can you use uv gel? Brisa is almost as robust as acrylics, you could offer them a reduced infill with that and keep all the clients, I bet they wouldn't know the difference x

just to add, i only meant a reduction the first time lol

Ooo sorry to jump on but I am allergic to acrylic liquid and powder.is it called i nails?? I have never heard of it either x

If you google I.nails you should find their website. Have a look on my fb page Jens gels Corsham and you can see what they come out like

A few years ago I started to develop allergies as well. I managed to sort out my issues by eliminating HEMA - Hydroxyethyl Methacrylate.

I now only use HEMA free products and that along with safe application techniques minimising over exposure to products means I don't have any issues any more.

I'm not saying this would solve your issues but it might be worth looking into.

NSI have a monomer and primer which are HEMA free.

Please ask me if you have any further questions.

Do you do gel? Maybe a good alternative if you don't want to lose your enhancement clients? X

Just goto Boots and buy a pack of pop on nails it's basically the same, why any professional nail tech would use these is beyond me .. Each to their own I guess
