And on topic.. I have been using Shellac since May and Gelish for the last few weeks.... and yep my nails are fab and stronger than in a long time I think both products are a godsend !:green:

Spoilt are you ok?

shellac has done this for my nails. it's not a nail hardener though as they work very diffrently (something to do with polymerizing the keritin cells in our nails with formalin we won't go there lol)

The extra support from shellac has done wonders for me , sounds like gelish is working out well to ,

It's going to be an exciting time in our industry the mote
more people find out just how amazing these products all are

I have shellac not gelish but yes I have noticed the same, both on myself and on clients. My nail beds seem to be getting longer too. (They were always fairly long but where I've had buff off gels in the past I got a bit of lifting of the nail from the nail bed, at the free edge, think it's called oncholyosis-? But they seem to have repaired since I've been using shellac.)

Some people grow their nails wonderfully well just by using polish!

Anything that wraps the nail in a protective coating is going to help grow your nails. There is nothing magic about it. some people need a stronger product then polish to help them.

I actually find Shellac stronger than gelish for MY nails and they are all long now and have been for the last 8 months.

For 6 weeks I used gelish and I found it was much bendier than Shellac for MY nails and length of my natural nails. I did not like the feeling and need more support. I need a harder product than polish or a thin gel. Shellac is that product for me. My nails and I feel vulnerable without it. I repeat, this is what I have experienced with MY nails ... others will have different experiences.

I found the same, I'm a 'chewer' which I never noticed before while wearing l&p, and I have noticed my nails feel slightly more flexible while wearing gelish compared to shellac, seems to still be strong enough for me to have no breakages so far, but yup there is a noticeable difference.

I said the other week to my boyfriend ' you won't understand this, (which he didn't) but I feel like I have my old hands back' I Always had long strong nails with decent nail beds etc. . . And I do again woo !
And it is down to shellac (and maintaining a good length for my lifestyle) as I've been wearing shellac for 4 months,


I'm still baffled by the first 2 posts though. Has someone deleted a post in the middle or something ?

I don't think so, I think it was a stab at sarcasm as no one replyed quick enough.
