Hi,
Am considering getting some gel nails done. Can someone recommend someone/where that a) does a good job; and b) is not ridiculously expensive.
Thanks

I used to have mine done by Jade Nails in Admiralty, they do a fab job an look very au naturel.
However, think carefully if you really want them as i am now growing mine off and my actual nails are weak, split and a little embarassing to be honest.

Thanks Totty. Know what you mean! I think mine are still recovering from acrylic nails from years ago...but they've never recovered and look a bit sad hence my considering getting some again!

Hi I used Private-I over in IFC at Xmas time, the girl was very meticulous and took ages and it was hardly cheap but lasted for nearly 4 weeks (unheard of with Australian gel nails) so probably cost effective and my nails didn't suffer at all.

Do you have their number Sheenababe, and may I ask exactly how much 'hardly cheap' is??

Hi Sammy their number is 2295 3381 and from memory it was about HK$650, I must say I blanched slightly when I had to pay but they lasted for ages and looked good what's more, let me know if you try them (my girl was called Mey or something along those lines and was as I said very meticulous).

Thanks sb, do you have to esp careful with gel nails? Do they pop off easily? Have only had acrylic before in Aust and I'm not entirely sure have gel are different. I ask because I have 2 kids and my nails do and will cop quite a beating. Not sure if it's worth it if they will come off quite easily.

Hi vv1234,
Had a look at their website. They look like a school. It's not students doing your nails is it?! Have you been their? They use decent product? Sorry for all the Q's - they seem too cheap!!
Please support our advertisers:
I'm been their about 1 yr they are salon and school but don't worry their nail technician are qualify. Their girls are very nice and they use IBD and OPI product.

Sounds more affordable in the long run I must say, in the meantime does anyone know of anywhere good for gel nails in Shanghai??
Please support our advertisers:
More questions! Sorry VV but I know nothing about the products only that everyone keeps mentioning the very evil chinese gel that will ruin my nails forever!! They don't use that do they??

sheenababe - iNail, Fiori and Dragonfly come to mind. Don't have the prices for iNail and Dragonfly but you can take a look at Dragonfly's website at www.dragonfly.net.cn. Fiori charges RMB630 (not sure if the price list I have is out of date).
