I had my nails taken off for surgery + I can't wait for just a gel mani nevermind a full set again. I have cancer + tho nails are the least of my worries, they make me FEEL better. A cost I'm willing to spend. Tho there has been times I'd go a month or longer before a fill, it is what it is lol ✌️💙

I started watching you back in the pandemic and that's when I learned all your hacks loved them. The baking soda hack is my favorite. I have been a Nail tech for since 1993 and just quit doing nails all together and then when I started watching your videos you encouraged and inspired me to start back but I kind of have forgotten how to do them so I had to get back into the rhythm so I didn't want anything smelling stinky or anything. So I did the baking soda hack. It worked perfect. Now I do poly gel. I do gel x tip-X and dip and so I'm going to try the baking soda hack again. I can't wait.

Baking soda and CVS glue makes a strong acrylic barrier...we use it for repair. Never even thought to use it this way. Gonna give this a try cuz monomers and acrylic powder has failed me. I have a issue with acrylic lifting off in a week and then there's the cost for repair in addition to the installation. I'm one of the people they say won't be able to do fill ins cuz of cancer...some reason they just won't stay. So I'm gonna try this. If it doesn't work...at least I'm not out of anything...or paying a lot of money for constant repeated applications.

I wonder if the fact so many people started doing their own nails at home during COVID and just kept doing it has made clients harder to get and therefore caused a price increase.
