Shellac - Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is Shellac?
A: Shellac is a breakthrough, patent-pending UV technology that combines the ease of polish with the permanence of gels. No other products in the market can stand up to the claim – on like polish, wears like gel, off in minutes.
Q: What can I expect to pay for a Shellac service in Plymouth?
A: The service price for Shellac will vary depending on the price structure & profile of the salon. Salons in most markets will position Shellac as an upgrade to existing services, charging at least 50% more than regular polish. My prices start at £20 for a mini Shellac manicure in Plymouth.
Q: Is the Shellac formula “3-Free”?
A: Yes. Shellac does not include Formaldehyde, Toluene or DBP (Dibutyl Phthalate).
Q: Is Shellac hypo-allergenic?
A: Yes, a low level of photo-initiators are utilized in Shellac. Photo-initiators can lead to sensitivity with some clients. This is very uncommon though.
Q: Can I have a Shellac manicure in Plymouth whilst pregnant?
A: Absolutely! It's important to feel good about yourself whilst your body is changing beyond belief! The only time I would not apply Shellac to your toes is when you are nearing your due date. This is because it is important that you do not wear polish on your toe nails when you go into hospital to have your baby. If you are required to have an emergency c-section, your healthcare professionals use the colour of your toenails to gauge your oxygen levels. Whilst they usually have a bottle of nail polish remover to hand to remove normal polish, they will not be able to remove your Shellac as quickly if needed in an emergency situation.
Q: Is there any odour to Shellac?
A: A slight odour may be noticeable upon application but not as strong as nail polish. After curing in the lamp, residual odour does not remain.
Q: Does Shellac removal damage the natural nail?
A: No. Shellac was developed and tested for years to perfect every aspect of the Shellac process, including removal.
Q: Will Shellac really last for 14 days?
A: Yes, however you will notice a “line of demarcation” as your natural nail grows away from the cuticle. It is recommended that you adhere to a 14 day re-application appointment, as the adhesion will increase if worn past this point, making the removal process a little lengthier.
Q: Will soaps or other personal grooming products affect the wear ability of Shellac?
A: No. Shellac was developed and tested to withstand the rigors of daily wear.
Q: Are there any negative side effects of the frequency of removal with Shellac?
A: No, not as long as the system is being used correctly.
Q: Can Shellac be used over my enhancements (Liquid & Powder and Gel)?
A: Your Nail Professional can incorporate a Shellac service with both Liquid & Powder and Gel enhancement services.
Q: Can I remove my own Shellac?
A: It is not recommended. To ensure the health of the natural nail, Shellac is a professional only service and only trained Nail Professionals should apply & remove Shellac. If you are unable to come into the salon for removal, ask me how to remove it safely and effectively at home.
Q: How do I keep my nails moisturized and hydrated?
A: Use Solar Oil daily to keep nails and cuticles moisturized. I retail small bottles of solar oil in Plymouth for just £3.00. It really is the miracle oil that will encourage strength and growth.
Q: Can CND Shellac be mixed with other “gel polish” systems?
A: No! CND Shellac was designed as a system and must be used as a system, including CND Shellac Base Coat, Colour Coat, Top Coat and the CND UV lamp.
Q: How can I guarantee I receive the Real CND Shellac service in Plymouth?
When you have a revolutionary product like CND Shellac, there are sure to be “me-too” products that claim to be the same and salons that are claiming to provide “CND Shellac” services, but are really using a lower quality gel product. Look for the branding of the polishes, the UV lamp and any other products used.
It’s important for you, the consumer, to know how you can spot a phony and why it’s important to demand the Real CND Shellac in Plymouth!
