Disillusioned by Bio-Sculpture Gel nails - should I get them taken off

3 replies

This is my third time of having them done, after each other. Every 2 ish weeks. First lot fine, on short nails. 2nd lot - 2 of them kept on lifting from the base, kept re-glueing but they didn't stay on. Nail lady said my nails were soft and should be better if kept short. Today a piece has chipped off after being on for a week. The whole point of having them was in prep for a 2 week hol to the US in 2 weeks time. At this rate I'll end up with bits popping off and unable to repair them. Inclined to get them all taken off and go au-natural, or try to do my own. Any advice?

Get them off and have a lovely manicure in the US where they really do know how to give a good mani and pedi.

Do your own - much cheaper in the long run and you can take your time to get it to look really neat as it doesn't dry until you put it under the lamp.

I use SensatioNail - is gel polish, no glue involved

Try someone else - I went to one place and they wouldn't stay on, tried somewhere else and they lasted 2 weeks no problems. The length of your nails should have no effect at the base
