Work policies like that always make me chuckle - what do they think will happen, will your nails fall off and a customer will trip on one breaking several bones in the process??:lol: Seriously though do they allow their female staff to wear them? You have an issue to challenge them with if you do!
If you're looking for something to wear on your nails whilst working, have you tried the "indestructable french"? Basically, its a base layer of translucent pink Gel (I use Brisa from CND), a line of paint on white on the tip, then UV gel topcoat. I've encased a couple of dried flowers in the thumbs and index fingers and it honestly loks stunnung, but you'd probably get away with it for work! I did it because I was tired of my l&p's getting damaged whle I work. My enamel was always coming off when I removed other peoples enamel, I was getting filig scratches in them from when I did rebalances on my clients, and the last straw was getting scrubfresh on them when I did some hollywood toes and they went soft:cry:. So, I went for a brisa overlay on fairly short nails so that they'll last, and they look wonderful.
I'll try and get a picture in my album later on.
