Does he do gel?

If so, does he use a UV light for curing the gel or an LED light?

I have found that most of the tech salons in TV use UV lights, which are very bad for your skin. It is like sticking your hands in a tanning bed. They will age prematurely and I personally have a lot of skin irritation after UV light use.

The shop next to Cals in Brownwood won't even do gel pedicures, because all their UV lights are built into their manicure tables. You have to have traditional polish for pedicures there.

I got so frustrated that I bought my own LED lamp and do my own gel. I miss the pampering of a real mani/pedi. But I guess I save some $$, so that is the trade off. And I know I am saving my skin from the UV exposure.

I would love to try him if he uses an LED lamp for Gel on both hands and feet.

Can any one answer that question? Thanks, in advance!
