I've never had gel nails like that. My nails are quite thin and brittle and most of the time gel nails only last 2-3 weeks on me, even with BIAB. These nails lasted me OVER A MONTH, and I was moving house so a lot of packing and unpacking which wasn't gentle.
The nail art was great, I could tell by the end the nail tech was rushing a bit and wasn't putting in as much effort as with the first hand but it still looked good.
Only wish the tools they use were more hygienic.
