Low-Maintenance Nail Enhancements: Which Technique is Best?

Question
Hello, I would like to get my nails done, but I need them to be somewhat low maintenance and I do not want my real nails to suffer.  I understand there are a few different options available to me - which technique would you recommend.

Answer
Dear Shawna,

With regards to "low maintenance", there is no such thing with nail enhancements. Either you make the commitment to get them refilled/rebalanced every 2 weeks (3 at most) or you'll suffer breakages and lifting and all sorts of problems.

There are indeed many options, and each are satisfactory. However, I can't best advise you which to choose as I can't meet with you personally for a consultation.

My personal preference is UV Gel but a QUALITY Acrylic is just as good.

However, before choosing a technician, please see this page on my site to arm yourself against NSS and toxic products:http://ongles-chez-victoria.tripod.com/victoriasnails/id18.html
