I did get my gel nails about 2 months ago and love them but I think the novelty has worn off..... My nails, hands looked so perfect---the nail tech is great. The fills came out great and I really can not complain. But the length was so hard getting used to. I had them on the short side to me but they were still long--or my nails are growing fast. I ended up filing down all my nails to just above my fingers this past week. The length was really making some things hard to do. I had problems at first just trying to button clothing......using the computer was hard and trying to dial my cell phone was crazy. I do love the strength my nails have--no breakage and having all my nails the same length. I now think I will just get a gel overlay over my natural nails and not have the tips put on and keep my nails short. It is easier for me to function with shorter nails.
