Trying out nsi .. a few questions

[GTNKRISTI]

hi all, first i would like to say that i am new to this awesome site, and i love it!!!!:Love: after only knowing about you for a few days i am obsessed!!! I have already learned so much! I have been doing nails for a little over a year, i learned on opi products-absolute, axxium,etc. and while i found them to be "okay" I moved on to cnd and have been very happy-with that said, i have always been one to try new things so after hearing about nsi attraction, i bought a kit and have been practicing w it- i find it to be a bit "wetter" i guess, but i guess my question is has anyone else used both products and can you tell me some of the differances you have found and which you prefer? i love cnd retention, and today i went to do a full set, i was going to use the attraction, and used it on one nail but wasnt happy so finished w cnd-i vowed to never stray again:lol: but maybe i am not giving nsi a fair shake? if anyone can help me out that would be reat thanks!!!!

I have used both CND and NSI Attraction. Both are great products. Each have a different feel when creating the enhancement. Like driving a new car it takes a little bit of practice to become comfortable with a different product.

There is always an expense involved when changing systems, look at the cost of change vs the benefits, and a system that will best serve you as a professional and your clientelle. (I never put education as a cost of doing nails (except for in the books for tax purposes) but as an "investment", therefore do not include in the cost of change.)

There is no product in the world that outlasts or out performs CND ... which is why your clients love you for using it.

In these delicate financial times, I would not be messing around with my clients' choice. I would keep my feet on the ground and keep every client I have got and not compromise on the high end high quality products that I use.

Hi

I trained with NSI products. and converted to CND last year ( great product) But I still have a few clients that will not convert to CND as they love NSI so much... xx

thanks everyone for responding, i will stay w my creative and maybe just play around w my nsi til i can figure it out, i do like some things about nsi like glaze and go and nurture oil can be a little something differant from my solar oil, is there any reason why i cant use these products over my cnd enhancements? I was just thinking that it may be good to be able to offer some clients smthing differant than cnd i do like the technailcolors that they offer and i thought it may bbe nice to be able to offer both. so i was asking too- is it too hard to try to use two differant l&p systems? I am still pretty new to this, and am doing quite well w cnd so i dont want to confuse myself if the application is that much differant so ui was hoping that someone who has used both can explain some main differances between the two thanks so much

I really don't understand what you are getting at here. I pride myself in using my Creative products and they work for me right across the board from enhancements to manicure

Make a decision as to which product range you want to work with CND or NSI.
Use one system, you will benefit from the economies of using one system in bulk ordering, your clients wont get confused as to what's on offer and neither will you.

Your clients are enjoying CND and you are already set up. You enjoy working with the system, you say you would like to offer a "gel top coat" - great why not try CND "finishing gloss", you only need to invest in the finishing gloss - not a whole new system, much smarter in my mind and more pennies in your pocket.

thanx for all ur advice, i am still new to the nail biz and i guess i get curious w so many systems out there..... i will just focus on what ive been using and hope to just get better w that....... cnd is truly the best product i have used and i am glad to have found it.........

Hi I found that the nsi is wetter but if you watch the dvd it shows you how to get the best out of the product , and in my opinion they are both a good product and i do think it just takes a tad bit of practice and playing around with a new produce to get the hang of it like all things . I think its good to true new products as how would you know if what you were using was the product for you, I trained with essensail nails and i found it so hard to do nails and them i changed to cnd and it made my job so much easier , and thats all i have used for ages untill iI thought why not true something else just to see what else is out there. My point I am trying to make is just because one person likes one thing does not mean you will .xx
