    Default Acryllic nails VS gels

    Are the gel nails any better than acryllics? Do they justify the highter price?


    My MySpace Page:

    I love my gel nails. They don't break as easily as acryllics and I don't have that polish on them that glows in the black light.

    i just get regular manicures and pedicures. I don't do the fake nail thing. 9 years ago when I started I had them but not in six years though.

    Gel Nails are a lot better. When I tried acryllic they were destroying my nail bed and they broke a lot easier.

    I don't get fake nails anymore... but gels are WAY better! They look more realistic and are easier on your real nails.

    Gels are easier to shape, they last a bit longer and they don't glow.

    They were also easier on my nails than acrylics. I don't do the fake nails anymore (who needs them with these super dupped up pre-natal vits?). But, when I did get my nails done, I always got Gel.

    Just make sure you go to someone who is REALLY good with Gels. If you don't get the combo right, you have the gel bubble, and sometimes dirt gets trapped in those bubbles. So definitely go to someone who is GOOD at Gel nails.
