Shellac Polish: An Indestructible Allure
The strong, stunning Shellac polish used at numerous Cincinnati nail salons can stand up to afternoons spent tailgating for the Bengals, unpredictable Midwest winters, and everything else the Queen City throws at it.
CND's Shellac polish—a veritable suit of armor for nails—can last 14 days without a chip or smudge. The formula is a hybrid of regular and gel nail polish, combining the thick, durable layers of gel with ordinary lacquer’s easy, brush-on application. Between each of Shellac’s four coats, a special, low-watt UV lamp cures the polish, drying it in seconds.
Available in more than 80 shades ranging from Cream Puff to Overtly Onyx, Shellac polish is no longer new technology, but only trained technicians in a certified salon are eligible to apply it. Below are a few salons and spas in Cincinnati offering Shellac nail services.
