I've tried to search for help but can't find the threads although I'm sure this has been well covered before, so apologies.
I had a client for a first time Shellac. She said she has manicures but clearly not for a while. Very dry hands and not in a very good condition overall.
Two of her nails had really heavy growth of the epinicium down over the nail, one was literally half across the nail. One pushed back ok with plenty of Cuticle Away but the other pushed back a way but left a large fold, I stopped pushing any further as didn't want to damage it or make the fold larger!
I was taught not to cut it but I really wasn't sure what the best way forward was as it was pretty unsightly, in the end she said to trim it back a little way, which I did very very carefully.
I gave her a little pinkie Solar Oil and some disposable gloves and told her to use both in the hope that it will be better for the next appointment.
I just want to ask what others do in this situation. Should I have just left the fold? Need to know for future.
Thanks in advance.
