I hear good things about Gel, but I wouldn't know

I have used Shellac/Gellish for about 1.5 years straight. My nails were pretty strong to begin with, but the technician told me she recommended it to people who wanted a break from

acrylic and grow back their nails since the Shellac/Gellish stuff is suppose to help protect your nails.

Mochimochi: I should try that...I want my nails to grow but I like nail treatments that last for longer than a day or two. How long does that last?

LiliBug: 2 weeks. I've pushed it to 3 but since it's non-chipping, it looks pretty blargh when you can see the grow below. Amazing stuff though.

*growth. One thing I do recommend is doing research on a really good place to have it done

Mochimochi: I gotta try that then I would love to not have to do anything to my nails for 2 weeks @.@

I've had good jobs and bad jobs and the good jobs leave my nails amazing and they grow out really nicely

I have the UV light and stuff at home

YES! Same. I'm lazy and I'm okay with having the same color for 2 weeks. And if you pick pretty neutral colors like whites/pink etc, the outgrowth isn't too obvious.

LiliBug: Ooh nice! Way cheaper than

I can't paint my nails with my left hand haha

Mochimochi: I've done my own nails for years but nothing more depressing then finishing a design just to have it chipping in 2 days maybe 3

LiliBug: I want your skills!

Mochimochi: PSH I want YOUR skills
