Re: Permanent French manicure...

How are these removed, or have you continued maintaining them indefinitely?
What are your nails like underneath once they are removed?
Shea, would you please FM me the place where you have it done and the person's name. I would appreciate that.
A lady at the gym said she's had it for 10 years straight and her nails always look gorgeous. I don't know why I didn't ask her where she goes and I don't think I'll get to gym this week.

Re: Permanent French manicure...

permanent french means you have to get a backfill done every few weeks to maintain it...gels are also a great way to go since these come in various colors and are also permanent with only backfills needed..they are usually more expensive then all the rest because the products cost more- but they are done quickly and a UV light is used to cure them..

these can be done on your natural nail or over a tip

Can you reccomend a place that does them with the gels? Thanks!

Re: Permanent French manicure...

the one i used to go to is in rockville center...however, it is not done with acrylic...she uses the regular powder but puts the white polish before she puts on the last coat of powder...

for those who only wants this done one time, you will have to soak your nails in acetone (i think) to remove anything put on your nails...as long as nothing is peeled off, your natural nails should stay in tact...
