In this episode of the Salon Success Podcast, Penny and the Theory Dream Team break down real-life nail chemistry in a way that actually makes sense for nail techs. We chat about free edge lifting, primer, bonding gel, builder gel, BIAB, acrylic, gel polish, lamps, curing, polymerisation, monomers, shrinkage, shock curing and exothermic reactions, plus how all of this applies to real clients in the salon. Perfect for beginner nail techs, beauty students, home salon owners and qualified nail technicians who want to understand why products behave the way they do and how to troubleshoot common nail problems with more confidence. If you’ve ever wondered why gel does not “dry”, why your client’s nails keep lifting, why heat spikes happen, or why your lamp choice matters, this episode is for you. *********************************************** Nail or Beauty School was just the beginning, right?
