Share Your Story: Shellac Nail Polish Reviews

From Ellie

How was the Shellac Manicure Procedure Different?

I had the french done - It takes about an hour to do the base coat, color or french and top coat and baking time in between coats.

What did You Think of the Shellac Polish?

I had the french done - 3 times now. It tends to peel off at day 3 and comes off completely after 8 or 9 days. I've had two different manicurist's do it thinking maybe it was the application. CND is the brand of shellac. Maybe the colored polish stays on longer, but I have to say it didn't hold up well at all. I am disappointed as this is the only thing that protects my nail and allows length to grow.

Advice

  • I wouldn't recommend it as it is costly for only 3 days of good looking non peel / chip nails.

That's interesting! I'm thinking there must be a problem? Wondering if it was at the same salon? Certainly not the norm, as you see in the reviews, but good to note!
