No product stays on this lady, it comes clean off within a few days?

Hi Guys & Gals :lol:

I am relatively new to nails regards 'doing' the general public and no set of nails that come to me are the same!

But a lady came with very shorts nails, slightly bendy and flexible, that do actually grow although she made me laugh when she said they usually all break just before she ever has anything done to her nails!

She also said she has tried acrylic, gel and fibreglass but nothing ever stays on...she doesn't really pick at her nails, they just 'flick off', or they start to lift and she can flick them off in one go...there is never any product left on her nails, it come off clean in one go???

Her skin and hair isn't dry or oily...so I had a go at doing a natural gel overlay and sure enough, a couple of days later only 3 out of 8 (we left the thumbs due to recent 'car door' damage) nails have gel still on them, the others are completely free of product?

Any ideas.....and any advice on what might work?

id ask her if shes on any medication
also check what sort of things shes using for cleaning, does she wear gloves etc

Hi Love,

Unfortunately, there are people in the world whose body chemistry will just not allow the enhancements to adhere. It could be a medication issue - but for them to just wing off with no product damage - sounds like she is one of those unlucky ones!

She probably peels or pulls or bites them off.
