Someone explain Shellac to me please
Is it a fake nail or type of nail polish?
Re: Someone explain Shellac to me please
It is the greatest thing ever. I sometimes use OPI Axxium which is the same thing.
Its a gel that is put on your real nail that is a nail polish. The gel is placed under a light and it "sets" - and doesn't chip. It lasts up to two weeks.
I totally agree! So much better and healthier for your nails than acrylics.
Do you do this yourself or go to the salon?
If you go to the salon, what is the cost? TIA
I can't really remember - I used to get it done at Renaissance and I think it was $45 which included a manicure.
Full shellac job to me is a manicure and polish. The price I gave you is for the Stillwater area.
I've never had it done. But I did notice today's living social deal for OKC is a Shellac mani & pedi for $35 in case anyone's interested.

Yes, application is like regular polish.... However, it does have to be "soaked off".
