Jo, there's always the odd one that tries it on!
I always tell clients whilst performing the service about care & maintenance, as I'm sure you do too. I do say, if they come off - then that's going to hurt! So be careful for the first 24hrs or so whilst they are still polymerizing(sp?).
Obviously, Mrs. X, you can carry on your normal duties like riding a bike, swimming etc. They don't float off whilst your taking a bath you know!
In other words, I let them know right from the beginning that they can't come and tell me they woke up one morning and there they were....gone! They know I will demand them back etc for lab testing!
If a client turns up with a nail gone awol I usually say something like -'Blimey, what have you done to that? I bet that hurt?' and they just then come out with how it really came to do a disappearing act - car door, making the beds, banged it whilst scrubbing the oven, left it in my hubby cheek when I punched his lights out!
I've been doing L&P for almost 5yrs and never have I had anyone say their nails burnt after a few days! Just think - Liar, liar, nails not on fire!!:lol:
