Gel brands - opinions please!!

[Rhiannon89]

Does anyone know of any websites that I can purchase OPI's axxium gel from? In the UK!!! Can anyone also let me know their thoughts on this gel and recommend any others? As I want to start offering gel nails to my clients, but I am a mobile therapist and am not sure on which gel is the best. Thank you!

OPI products are distributed in the by Lena White, give them a call on 01923 240010 and they will be able to tell you what you need to know. I use Axxium Soak Off Gel Lacquer and it a great product that clients love and return for. I had to do a conversion course before I could buy it, but it was well worth it.

Oh really, thanks for your help. The only thing is I don't really have any time to do a conversion course. Can you recommend any other gels that are good in your opinion/from your experience and that I do not have to do a conversion course to purchase? Sorry to be a pain.
Thanks x

if you dont do a conversion course, how will you know how to use a new product correctly?

The Conversion is 10am - 2pm and is really quite inexpensive, not a massive investment to ensure you are using the product correctly really IMO. I used the product before my conversion as recommended so the class is a combination of education and troubleshooting......

Well worth a half a day of my time and Axxium colours are now such a huge part of my business the financial investment has been paid back many times over.

I have used a couple of gel brands that I have had no conversion course for and have managed to use them very successfully with no problems!!!! So that is how.
Well thanks for your help, but I think i'll carry on looking myself, as I need to purchase it asap and I do not have any spare time until after Christmas!

Hi there... new on here but thought I would type in 'Gel' and see what came up! I too like OPI products, but I kind of flit between that and Go-Gel. Have you tried them? I did my conversion course with them about 5 yrs ago as I was acrylic too at first but wouldnt go back now.

hope you dont mind me jumping in but hope I may have helped slightly?! x
