dont you just hate waiting to go out!!!

I too hate having gel nails removed. Can't bear it so never have it done.

You can change colour every time you go. They buff off the old and and put the new one on. They will apply 3 coats. In between each coat your hand will be put under a dryer.
You can have some Swarovski diamond chips if you want a bit of bling .
Time: about 45 mins. Cost: £23 every 3 weeks, and this is in a very expensive area (Leigh on sea, Essex)
This gel is 2 weeks old.

So nice of you to send a photo Petra. thank you. What do you think of what others say about getting it off again?

Well, seeing as I have no intention of seeing my nails ever again, I don't care
My only problem will be: if I ever end up in a wheelchair there won't be room for it in the salon. As Scarlet would say "I'll think about that tomorrow"

Thank you petra

I am quite ashamed of mine, no photo of mine will appear on GN.

I haven't seen my nails for over 10 years, and have no intentions of seeing them in the near future.

Gel nails and gel nail varnish on toes.

Might have to have an operation in January, already having nightmares about not having nails done. Although if you have one layer of clear apparently that's ok?

There was a thread about this some time ago. I'm afraid you wouldn't have got much sympathy on it grannygravy lol. But I do know what you mean.

GrannyGravy13 - I think we've all gone off the subject of "waiting to go out" but I thought I'd answer your nail varnish question.

Perhaps things vary depending on the operation you're having and from hospital to hospital but I have always been told before operations "absolutely no make-up at all and absolutely no nail varnish".

As the thought of this upsets you, I hope I am wrong.

Good luck with the operation.

That thread was started by me, and I didn't remove my gel.
The Dr was fine about it.

I've just remembered, they put the oxygen clip on my toes so that gel had to go.

Aah I understand now why it was important to you Petra. It wasn't just removing nail varnish! I'm glad you didn't have to remove it all, and I hope the op went well.

On the subject of going out I was so busy posting on this thread at 5.30 that I had to dash out for early dinner booking without doing my nails!
