Once you have Nam do your nails, you won't go anywhere else. I travel a good distance and don't mind at all because of the quality of his acryllic work. He does the filing by hand, using the drill hardly at all, so the nail bed is much stronger and healther. Plus his nails are thin and not having that ugly fat wedge at the bottom. The product is strong and doesn't break or peel. Also Lee does terrific pedicures. It's a winner!
