I have been to about 5 different places for shellac manicures. Like many, when I see a "deal" for one, I grab it. I don't get regular manicures often because they don't last and shellac is suppose to last about 2 weeks. With that said, I had yet to find a place that actually gave you a manicure in addition to painting your nails with the shellac polish and that lasted the promised 2 weeks. They all call it a manicure but the result is never actually that. Gaylee however, actually gave me a manicure (cut my cuticles, buffed and filed my nails, massage, etc.) AND it lasted ...what's going on 3 1/2 weeks. Now, I know that sounds ridiculous but I refuse to take it off because the polish is still perfect (other than the nail growth that is getting quite obvious). On all other occasions, the polish started to chip in under a week, but not this time! I highly recommend Gaylee!! She's very friendly as well! The only partial complaint I have is that she is somewhat hard to get an appointment with but clearly it's because she's that good!
