How would you like a pedicure that maintains its luster for a couple weeks or more with no chipping or scratching? How about one that dries quickly and won't smudge on the way back to home or office? Welcome to Shellac, which is both a brand name for a line of gel finishes and a system for setting the finish using UV light. With a Shellac pedicure, the main reason for returning to the salon is nail growth rather than a dulling of the finish. Shellac has taken the salon business by storm since its introduction in in 2010. Calming Effects Health Spa was an early adopter in the Port Huron and Blue Water area. Technique is key. Make sure to select a nail tech with experience in applying and removing Shellac. You can also request a French pedicure using Shellac.
