Just done a lady's nails for the first time.
I know her from school and she asked me If I could remove and re-do her shellac.
I wouldn't normally remove another techs work as I have read so many horror stories but I looked at her nails and immediately recognised it was tutti frutti she had on with glitter.
Anyway, i came to remove with the CND wraps and she told me the salon she goes to just soaks her fingers in a bowl.
Had her fingers wrapped for 10 minutes and all that was coming off was a top film of glitter..( she said they used loose glitter dabbed on)
So, re soaked and wrapped for a further 10minutes and it still wouldn't budge!
I resorted to putting solar oil on her nails and soaking in a bowl and another 15mins later it finally came off.
I know from the salon and colour it was shellac. But never had a removal like that before.
My first thoughts were that the base coat was too thick?
But also she said that they cured the base coat for a lot longer than 10 seconds and was surprised when I only cured it for 10 seconds.
Luckily she was fine about it all but I feel rubbish that a removal and application took nearly 2 hour!!!
Has anyone had this before? X
