I'd never treated myself to gel nails before I went to Phamtastic to get my wedding nails put on. I got pink and whites with some white floral decorations put on. For the wedding they were just beautiful - nicer than any set I've ever noticed for shape ect. They started to look bad quickly when they grew out though so I'm wondering if they made them look extra nice for the wedding and purposefully made the sacrifice. I was back for a fill I badly needed in two weeks (I thought I would get more time) and the fill looked not as nice but they were much flatter with less gel so they have been growing out much more attractively. I'm now two weeks after a fill and I'm not even considering another fill yet so maybe I'm currently wearing an average set of gels. They certainly take less care and attention to my nails during the fill and I had to get them to go back and adjust the shape and sharpness they were just going to gloss over. Overall I'm wanting to keep my nails for a while and I'll continue with phamtastic as I'm still pretty much happy.
