I use microbond by OPI and i love it although to be fair i haven't tried anything else so i can't comment
 
The best out there!
 
i use nsi balance (not on the list either) I like it a lot, but havent tried anything else really.... i dont find it as strong as L&P but its good for NNO ...x
i use go gel u can use the gel with the dusting powder to make it really strong and it does not lift it also soaks off:green::green:

Aren't you a distributor though ???
 
I use trosani gel, its a german brand, I don't know if any of you geeks use it or even heard of it!!
 
Where's Magnetic? ;-)

I would vote against gel because we love acrylics here. But we do not "hate" gel at all!
 
NSI Balance, LCN and IBD. I have different folks for different strokes and they won't be moved. My favourite to apply is IBD. :)
 
I use ibd not a lot use it here i've noticed,very happy with th result .I originally started with nailcreation.
 
I wanted to ad a product to your gel list. Light Elegance is a fantastic line. They offer many different gels and fab colors too. I have been using it for about 8 years.
 
Hi just wanted to say I have only recently start using Bio Gel and up to now I love the product. However I am still having a few teething problems with the sculpture nails, I am hoping they will iron out as I get more experienced.
 
I use IBD.. I like the durability and ease of use. My clients have no lift. The salon owner and hair stylist both have IBD gel on and they are in water all the time. They have no lifting problems at all. In fact, they can go 3 weeks for a fill and they are fine. Hope this helps. Kim
 
I only have Brisa which i trained in, im not particualy good at it though......& much prefer L&P ....

more training required lol
 
Hi

anyone heard of unique nails. Its a Swiss company. I am in Dublin and it is the system i use in my salon. I've been using it for about 4 years now and i find it really good.
 
I live in Jackson, Mississippi. Gels aren't as big here, but I use IBD and get wonderful results.
 
Hi

I use Calgel, it's brilliant for me. Didn't see Calgel in the poll list though, not sure why it's not there.

Sue:)
 
I use Gel It! and I love it! Goes on beautifully and my client's all say how light it feels and how natural it looks, very easy to rebalance and I've never had a problem with it. :)
 
The gels that I use are not really listed as a choice. Currently I have had a huge success with Amore , very little lifting and breakage (I scultp and never use tips) i also have some brisa but not enought to call myself experienced with it, the same of LCN, I use the Wilde Pedique and love that on toes, I am also trainded in Biosculpture (took the class and tried a couple of sets...stopped) I thought Biosculpture was very expensive and the white was terrible...but I had a terrible trainer...so I never gave it a fair shot. I have also used Nail Basics.

I am a bit of a "Gel Tramp", but I find that different things work for different clients so keep lots o options on hand.

I am considering moving over to the En Vogue Gel system as it is primerless and easy to work with. But I am also considering the IBD soak off polishes to add to my lis of services and options.
 
I use CALGEL which isnt on the poll either....and Im more than happy with using this Gel....even more happy since I had a fantastic afternoon with Robyn and Karen from Calgel:):)
 
I don't see my gel's brand on the poll.
It's c-marso.Do anyone know that brand??
If you are confused about the name of the brand, i have to tell you that i'm from Greece!
