This is strictly a review for the chick who does nails. She did a fantastic job with my shellac manicure! I appreciate the attention to detail. Gel manicures are a bit more expensive but if I'm going to pay to have my nails done at all I'd rather pay a bit more and have the manicure last for two weeks instead of the two days regular polish tends to last on me. However some manicure-ists don't get as close to the cuticle and it looks really grown out by the end of the week, or they don't cover the tips and it chips quickly, or they let the edges build up and it peels off faster. She did none of these things, the manicure looks great, and I'm happy! (She doesn't have the hugest selection of colors, but at least for gel I thought it was sufficient; if you're getting a normal polish manicure you might think about bringing a color if you're picky.)
