Hi Shelly.
I just found this message board. I'm hoping to have surgery in October. I passed my state boards last year but haven't worked in a salon or on my own since then - other than to do my mom's, niece's, friend's nails. I'm working on a plan of doing some independent work but in WI there are specific rules about that.

hey traci, i have done nails for 20 yrs, and have tried different nail products, but usually return to creative nails. i used a buffalo drill, and it was so easy, comfortable and light weight, just like pencil in hand. i have taught nail, and cos. I no longer do nails, not even my own lol. if anyone wants or is looking for nail tool, it is new, and in excellent shape. i never had lifting, ridges, or any problems, all acylic nails.

i did have less lifting with TT. I love their primer. To me it was the best out there. I like TT because its a softer acrylic and it doesn't take as much work to do the filing..
I do all my filing by hand. I never use a drill unless im doing a backfill. i just never liked them much.
and oh yeah i can definately relate...lol i almost hate to look at my nails now.....
