I am just about completed my manicure/pedicure course.Last week on Monday then few weeks then got exam.
I am however starting the gel nail course the end of this month and unsure on whats the best uv lamp.I was told to go for 36w with a timer.what lamps do u use?
 
The Wattage of the light doesn't really make the difference it is the U.V intensity and bulb placement that do the work :)

They best lamp is the one that the manufactures of the gel that you decide to use recommend you to use :)
 
I am doing my Level 3, just started yesterday and we've all got the CND one which cures the Shellac as well as Brisa Gel you can take the bottom plate out so you can put feet in it. It also has four time settings on it. I think on here everyone will recommend the same lamp.

You absolutely are best to wait. See what system you are going to use.

Some gel systems can cure with any 36W UV lamp but these systems are generally generic and not high end.
 
thanks just cant wait to get started.I am loving all this new learning its so much fun
