I was told the other day that L&P is the easiest Nail System. Is this true? For all you Geeks that do L&P. Fabric and Gel can you please tell me which you think is the easiest/quickest and the most popular with your clients.
L&P is the hardest to master................ ratio, application technique, zone building aso...........but saying that every system has it's very own Technique and skill and difficulties............
When you can do fab L&P nails you can know, how a brill nail should look like and is structured...........You then take all this knowledge and apply the Theory to the other 2 systems...............
Me being a back to front girl learned the Fibreglass system 13 years ago, this was when sticky backed Fibreglass and Silk was not always an option and I to learn to cut shapes to fit the nail from a sheet of non sticky backed stuff and had to learn how to apply, secure and twist..........Now thats taking me back a bit.........anyway back to modern days lol........
I learned Gels just after this and thought I was the mutts nutts in nails.......... afterall I could do 2 systems............
Was I going to do L&P no way babe, why should I, I knew it all lol..........yea right(NOT) !!!!LOL
Then I realized, that the only way to be a full service Techician, I would have to be able to offer L&P too or at least know the ins and outs of it, to make me a better Technician. So off I went last year and learned, was it easy.........lol........ I don't think so..........but was it fun learning......absolutly....thanks to Gigi, she made it look easy, but then a Fab Teacher would lol........
I found that if you want to build a brill nail, no matter which system you use, that speed is the least important thing.......... It is how to do it right and beautiful thats important...........
All 3 systems take me about the same amount of time and I have the same amount of fun doing them.........
As for clients choices, that depends on them, their likes, their nail plate condition, their lifestyle, so my advice is learn all 3 and then you will never have to say..........Sorry but I dont do XYZ system...........
Just my thoughts
