Why Your Salon Needs Shellac Nail Polish Colors

by Shella P. Guerra

Each day, something new seems to appear on the beauty scene – shellac nail polish, tinted moisturizer, highlights. It\’s a simple fact that not all fads are worth much attention. What you like and what you don\’t is your choice, but we\’re here to tell you about a new craze we can definitely get behind – and that is shellac.

So what makes shellac nail polish colors so different from regular nail polish? Well, where should we begin? Shellac is composed of different stuff. It contains a special combination of polymers that makes it extremely strong. This super-strength makes it un-chippable for up to a month, which is the main reason it\’s so popular. It\’s heavier than regular polish, so it needs to be put on in many light coats as opposed to a few thicker ones. Each coat is \”cured\” under a special UV lamp, making the final result much structurally stronger than a regular paint job.

The special application process makes shellac nails a primarily salon-based operation. Make sure you have manicurists specially trained in shellac polishing. An untrained set of hands can easily screw it up. Customers know this, and so they\’ll come to you first. They\’ll want to leave with flawless, long-lasting, and often intricate manicures. Some customers will come in looking for animal themes. Others will want roses, letters, or even skulls. It\’ll be up to you to address these desires and send each customer home happy. Mastering the art of shellac application is just the way to do that!

Bear in mind, when stocking your salon, that buying just any old shellac will not do. You\’ll want to go with a brand with a specialty in shellac. Look for a company that offers a wide selection of colors, as well as good UV lamps and other shellac accessories.

So, why precisely does your salon require shellac? Shellac nail colors are strong, durable, beautiful, and beloved by all types of customers.
