How Safe are No Chip Manicures?

No chip manicures are not only safe, but they are also healthy for your nails when applied and removed properly.  I have read many articles and reviews where patrons of other salons have commented that they will never get another No Chip Manicure again and I am saddened because I know that it is the improper application and maintenance of the service that is causing the damage to the nails...this translates to the nail technician who is applying and removing the product improperly.  So how do you know if the nail technician you are sitting in front of is licensed, professional, experienced and trust worthy?
 
When you visit a salon ask the following questions:
 
1. What No Chip Services do you offer?
2. Do you use a drill or electronic nail file on the natural nail during No Chip Services?
3. How do you remove No Chip Manicure Services?
4. What guarantees do you offer for your No Chip Services?
 
The most popular No Chip Services are Shellac, Gelish and OPI.  Under no circumstances for any of the No Chip Services should an electronic file (drill) be used on your natual nails or the product once it is applied.  During application only 99% Isopropyl Alcohol should be used, any other strength will cause the shine to be dulled or streaked.  The removal of all No Chip Services should only include 10-15 minutes of your time, Removal Wraps (Shellac), cotton balls/pads, foil and 100% Pure Acetone.  The use of any other acetone will cause the removal to take longer.  A light buffing may be necessary to remove the sealant layer for all No Chip Manicures except Shellac.
 
Most importantly if they're not willing to guarantee their work for 14-Days, then they aren't experts in applying the product.  Understand that there will be times when you get a chip here or the, but an experienced technician who stands behind her work and professionalism will guarantee her work and fix your nails if she's made a mistake, because we're all human so mistakes do happen.
 
For Shellac specifically, the nail salon should be listed on the CND website of the Find a Salon page.
