The product is ok, but the tech was very bossy and argumentative. I went into this salon because the gels i got from another salon kept peeling off immediately. I had just gotten my acrylics filled 2 days earlier so i clearly did not need fills. In an obvious attempt to upsell, the nail tech at lynn argued that i did and pointed out a non-existent gap in acrylic on one of my nails. I wanted the tech to remove the old defective gels and reapply in the same french design with pale pink gel tips on pink gel nails, but after applying the main color, first she claimed that the gel on gel technique was the reason they were peeling. If that were the case none of the gels would stick. But i had successfully worn the same style before with no problem of peeling. I believe the reason these were peeling was because the original tech had not properly applied the bonding layer and even after returning to the original salon for a free repair, my tips were still peeling, including one that had been repaired the earlier day. Then the Lynn's nail tech argued that the tips would cost $5 more. I replied that i undrstood i was paying full price to repair nails applied in a diffedent store and if i couldnt afford having my tips done i wouldnt be there having my nails done at all. Then she claimed that she didnt undestand what i was asking her and insisted my only option was white tips. I told her i didnt want white tips i wanted pink tips, but she exclaimed that the pale pink color that i had pinked was translucent and wouldnt work, still pushing white. I had to get up with half done nails, go back up to the rack, and find the same pale pink in an opaque polish. In all the more service-oriented nail salons i have been to, a more professional rep would have gone to the rack, found the opaque color that most closely matched the translucent that i picked and recommended it. As long as im getting the color, design, length, and shape that i ask for, i believe it is the nail tech's job to recommend the technique that bests achieves that design. I should not have to argue with the tech about color. As it turned out, after all that, upon leaving the salon i noticed in the center of one of my middle fingers, a tiny annoying bump in the middle of the nail where some fleck of debris ended up under the polish. While these gels have stuck as expected, i refuse to go back to this salon. The tech was way to bossy, pushy, and unprofessional. Read Less
