Hello everybody!

I've worked with Shellac few years ago but it was for short. Now I own a salon and I use nothing else but Shellac to finish and add color to the enhancement.
So, I have few questions that have been bothering me.
First, is ti payable and is there any other solution instead of gel polish or color gels for coloring the enhancements?
Second, can u put Shellac color coat directly on a buffed enhancement?
Third, why has the Shellac Color coat shrieked, forming small holes when I applied it over enhancement previously covered with Shellac base coat?

Please any feeling experienced with Shellac respond my questions.

Thank you the most!

Many of my clients choose to have Shellac over their enhancements even though we could also use normal polish which would last just as long. They prefer Shellac for the shine and of course it's dry instantly. I do charge them £5 extra for a Shellac finish.


Second, can u put Shellac color coat directly on a buffed enhancement?

Yes you can. No need for base coat but don't buff the enhancement too smooth, just finish with a 180 grit file.



Third, why has the Shellac Color coat shrieked, forming small holes when I applied it over enhancement previously covered with Shellac base coat?

This happens if oils or debris has been left on the surface of the nail. Make sure you dehydrate with Scrubfresh thoroughly. If that pitting occurs just remove the uncured Shellac and dehydrate again. Again over enhancements no base coat is required.
