Shellac pedicure - idiot's guide?

[TweeBee]

I'm using some birthday vouchers tomorrow to treat myself to a shellac pedicure! I've never been for anything like this before so just wondering what to expect. Can anyone fill me in? Thanks.

It can't be taken off with normal polish remover which is the only crap bit. As pp said last for ages and stays shiney.

The polish lasts months too.

It's just like a normal pedicure until the polish bit, they'll sort out the shape of your nails etc. When they put the polish in you stick your food under a uv light thingy (obviously the technical term) and that's about it. Dry straight away which I love.
