QuestionI am a nail tech and would like to start offering gel polish to my natural nail clients. Because the polish needs to be buffed off, am I weakening the surface of the natural nail? Is it safe to assure the "leary" clients that their natural nail will be just as healthy as before if they decide to discontinue gel polish? How do I explain to them in laymens terms that this is different than an artificial enhancement? Thankyou!
AnswerWanting to clarify the subject i've e-mailed Young nails the folowing:
I just had a question regarding your gel polishes. A nail tech said that
you advertise it is ok to use your gel polishes on natural nails. To the
date i've learned that gel polishes should be used over enhancement
because otherwise it would chip or peel away very fast. Can your gel
polish really be applied to the natural nail with sucess?
Thank you,

And the reply i got was:
Susana,
You are correct you must use atleast a Base Gel inorder to get the
colored gel to stick. We have a gel Class on Monday in Florida. Give me
a call if you would like to sign up/

So i hope this clarifies your question and makes you reflect on your attitude.
