Question for anyone who’s had an egg collection at Kings

Wondering how strict are they about gel nails/polish?

When I had my last collection at another clinic, they were totally fine with me keeping them on (they still managed to use the pulse oximeter on my finger without any issues), but l'm not sure if Kings has different rules.

I haven't received an info sheet from them yet about the collection, but trying to plan ahead and wondering if I need to factor in time for a gel removal before my collection next week
If anyone has any experience would love to know. TIA

I was asked to remove any polish (I'd already done this so didn't ask further questions). You could ask if just one nail would be fine or if they could look at your toe nailbed colour instead in the event of oxygen issues. Unless very attached may be simpler just to remove.

I was at kings too and they asked me to remove polish - can’t remember if they ever checked - but I always did it 🤓
