These top two photos were taken a week after I'd had them done. Though you can see that they've started to grow out a little bit, I was happy with my colour choice! Even after a week of the same colour I still loved my choice.
I hadn't had any chips in any of the polish, though being used to shorter nails I did start to struggle with them being a little bit longer.
Two weeks after having them done, I was definitely ready to take them off. The nail varnish itself was amazing and had very few chips- around four or five maximum, and only in small sections.
They had definitely grown out noticeably around my nail bed by now, though all the chips were around the top of my nail. The main problem that I had at this stage was the length and strength of my nails. Simply they aren't really strong enough to be the length they were (I've been trying to get them stronger for a while now), so they were catching and breaking on things. I ended up taking off the shellac polish the day after I caught and ripped half a thumb nail off with a potato peeler (sorry if you didn't want to see the bloody photo that came with this).
Even if I hadn't of shredded my thumb to pieces I think I would have still taken the polish off at this point, though I'm impressed with how long it lasted without chipping.
I've decided to do a part three about taking the Shellac polish off, so stay tuned for that next week!
Would you try these out?
