Removing CND Shellac, peeling, manicure & switching to Dazzle Dry polish. Nail technician explains.

[@dianneporter542]

The fact that you do not upsell is a testimony for your credibility!! I have only ever had one professional manicure many years ago. The tech buffed all of my healthy nails before applying just regular nail polish. Within a week every one of my nails split, peeled or broke. I had never had this problem previously when doing my own manicure without buffing. I look after my nails using Anna's advice. What a difference you made to your client's nails, beautiful!!!

[@katlam75]

Love these kind of videos where you’re working on a client but talking about the processes. ❤

[@veronicaguadalupe9684]

Beautiful polish shade, your attention to detail w the manicure never fails to amaze me!!

[@TheSalonLife]

Thank you so much!🤗

[@KasiaZ]

love a clear pink polish and a sparkly topcoat

I wish we could get Dazzle Dry in the UK - love Pinkies Up!

[@lenkagirtelschmid4337]

I have many Dazzle Dry colors...I love them all. But I just tried Boss - 2 coats topped with 1 coat of Mirage and I think it is the most gorgeous combo ever ❤ Thank you Anna, I discovered Dazzle Dry because of your videos about 1 or maybe already 2 years ago and I have never been this happy with my nails! ❤

[@TheSalonLife]

Thanks for sharing!!

Such a beautiful polish combo! Thank you for educating in every video 💖💖

I love that stardust topper so stunning

[@lorid823]

Thank you for introducing me to Dazzle Dry! Tried system for first time and blown away by how long polish lasts!

[@TheSalonLife]

Great to hear! Just don't over do it :)) Don't wear it too long at a time and take 1-2 day break and do warm oil soak.

[@TheRefinedBudget]

Sooo pretty. Omg. Just bought Essie’s birthday girl, hoping to get a similar look ❤

[@TheSalonLife]

Oh god, that is such a pretty color!!!

Hi, The fabric you're using to wipe the nails is a gauze that is used for medical dressings, you can buy it in the pharmacy in the UK, I'm assuming it's the same worldwide. P.S. I love your channel, thanks for all of the great advice.

[@kathiehein5969]

Those Gause sponges can be bought at a drugstore where the first aid supplies are. You can get them in a package stacked.

[@TheSalonLife]

Yes I know; but most of them are quite fluffy and they don’t have the texture of this gauze. I have to look around. They might have them here.

[@AK-kl7pg]

​​@@TheSalonLifeThese are the ones used in the medical field, so they are available at pharmacies or medical supply stores as non-sterile woven gauze sponges. looks like you're using maybe a 2x2 size.

[@heidihoglan6756]

Thank you for explaining that shrinkage with dazzle dry is likely caused by too thick of a top coat, I think that that's what caused mine because I really laid the top coat on thick last time! I'll go a little easier next time 🙂

[@TheSalonLife]

Hi Heidi! Applying it too thick or top coat being too thick in consistency

[@sydneyo.649]

In regards to the butterfly removal and how the polish removes after being freshly applied compared to later on down the road, the product continues to cure over its wear time and “stiffens” which makes it bond to the keratin harder than freshly applied product

[@TheSalonLife]

So the actual bond changes or the structure of the product changes? Like it might be less porous? I wonder why does CND keep advertising the butterfly removal even though we can't expect this kind of removal after 2 weeks

[@sydneyo.649]

@@TheSalonLife from what I e understood in the education I’ve received from CND, the bond with the nail changed due to outside UV exposure from the sun and it really grips onto the keratin in the nails anyways. Plus if your client had the little keratin “fingers” sticking up from a prior application of Shellac it tends to intensify the adhesion (in my experience) and makes the removal a little harder and a little longer (still, in my experience). So, in short, I think the clients with surface damage get a better and worse adhesion of the product in terms of wear and removal, but this is all what I’ve experienced and talked to the educators at CND about, and I’ve been using the product for almost 10 years now.

[@sydneyo.649]

@@TheSalonLife I would also like to mention that even though you do get a full cure in the LED, it’s still possible that all of the photo initiators don’t fully cure into their tubular structure and with regular sun exposure it tends to cause them to adjust, I’m still not sure why, but don’t take this as a reason to over cure product, still follow manufacturer instructions, but it’s how it does, cause the gel color itself is porous until you apply the topcoat, so… I guess the porosity changes between the products, but regardless, we should still get what they advertise to us. (I’m sorry about nerding out, I could go on for days and days about product chemistry)

[@nailedlife]

@@sydneyo.649 Ohhh, please do. In his industry they rarely teach it during the study period.... And ofc so many ppl who work as techs do actually not care either... and that is damn sad part. Thanx for the info tho, it was good to know and i can start to observe how it works with clients ( we use OPI and Pro Nails Belgium systems in the salon so im not ale to compare to CND.. )

Hello Alisha! Have you seen this swatch video? kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5LRcmSmnZKsorc

[@nicolehirsz-rivet9340]

Hi Anna! Do you have any videos for shaping trapezoidal shaped nail beds to make the nails look slimmer?

[@TheSalonLife]

Something like this? kzbin.info/www/bejne/eZvUqJmhqaeWZsksi=t-H8GnMpfC1TJ0co

[@oliviacraner8156]

I have yet to watch this video, this may sound weird but I wanted to know right at the very beginning of this video you showed us what the nails look like all pretty and painted. As we see each nail is on the finger itself not sticking off the finger or just barely off the finger. Is that from using the tool, pushing back the skin on each finger or is that from something else or just how your nails are all the time? I know this is weird me asking what may sound like a stupid question, just wish my nails were just like that.

[@TheSalonLife]

Hello Olivia! Thank you for your question but I’m not sure I understand. The first second I show how the nails look after the manicure. Then “I go back in time” and remove the old Shellac that was coming off the nails. Then I do a manicure and then I paint the nails. Please let me know how and what else I can explain :)

[@Marta_Maeldeis]

Dentist loupes would be badass. Though it might scare some clients 😅

I have had a complete nail transformation with Dazzel Dry. Hand that I used to hide are in full view!! Not only has all the peeling stopped, the nails are clean looking. (No yellow) they are strong and now I am proud to show my hands. If you are still sitting on the fence about this product; jump off and o Into the best most beautiful nails you can have. I have never worn red because I thought I did not have nice hands now…… the reader the better, my fav is “ Holly Berry” Xxx

Dazzle Dry is pretty unique when it comes to the polish chemical composition. Color wise there are quite a few soft pinks like this on the market. Essie Gel Couture in Inside Scoop comes to mind kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqLWZJlqlNicrqc and OPI Passion (awesome!!!) kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqLWZJlqlNicrqc

Not sure if you've answered this but, I'm new at dazzle dry and I'm getting lifting all around my sidewalls and cuticle area. What am I doing wrong? It happens after about 24hrs wear. Using prima ballerina and system with the transform.

Can you send me a bright, high resolution, close up picture? I will try to troubleshoot. [e-mail]

By biting my hands, the pink nail part of my nail has shortened, not the (white part), what do you recommend to make it longer like before? I hope I could explain it, my English is a little bad.And If you know the part of that pink nail part, can you write it down? 😢❤

Hello there, I have been doing Gelish shellac for some time and two of my nails started to detach from the nail plate. Dermatologist overruled fungus or bacterial infection and I did nail scrub sample which isn’t yet ready. On one fb group people with similar experiences said that I have onycholysis and I shall cut it so my nail will grow normally. I would like to please share the photo with you and if possible have some advice what to do. It looks terrible for me and I need to find a solution to camouflage this nail because of work. If I can send you a photo please do let me know how. Many thanks for your kind help!

Hi Susie! I’m not sure I understand your question…

Why would or should you choose one over the other? Is Dazzle Dry better for fragile nails?

[@TheSalonLife]

The client didn't want Shellac again. She just had it done once for an occasion (because it lasted longer). This polish she can just remove with ease at home. She is from out of town too.
