Hi there,
newbie first post here
Bit of background, Previously a florist, i have owned my own business for the last 9 years, the last 12 months i have taken some time away from the business & now its time for a career change. I love nails/Nail polish & for the last 5 or so years have become addicted & a collector.
I didnt think i would ever change career but the timing is right & i have had lots of encouragement from my family & friends as they know how passionate i am about nails & nail polish. So, after 6 months of comparing courses & finding one which would suit me best, I finally enrolled in a manicure/pedicure certificate course which starts next week (so I will probably have lots of questions from here on in. Lol)
Now to my questions as i am wanting to use IBD just gel polish (i already have a few) but it dosnt seem to be very popular or well known (compared to gelish & cnd shellac anyway) There is a IBD just gel workshop available here that i will be doing in the next month or so, but before i do that, i wanted others opinions & advice.
So, any pros & cons about it?
Would you recommend it?
(I love the colors but am having 2nd thoughts about the product for a couple of small reasons)
Any hints for application, How do you prep & Do you use the dehydrator or power bond or both? ( I know I will learn this over the coming weeks, especially if i do the IBD workshop) in the meantime though, I want to start practicing on my sisters & want some ideas.
Do you use the just gel cleanser & remover? (i am finding none of the suppliers i know of here stock it, even though they stock the polish) They do however stock the regular IBD ones (just not the Just gel branded ones)
Thanks
