For those who are nail salon-knowledgable
I had silk wraps for almost 3 months- I loved them but in that time, I had 2 lift and 1 break and it was a pain to have to go and get it fixed.
I made an impulse decision to get them removed this week and now I'm REGRETTING IT! My nails looks so bad compared to what they looked like with the wraps. I miss them and I feel like I was way to impulsive making that decision.
I am wondering if anyone has experience with the permanent french. How often do u need to get them filled in? How do they look compared to silk wraps? ITA!

Permanent french can be done in silk, gel or acrylic so it's not really a different type of nail enhancement. It sometimes seems like each salon has their own way of doing them. I prefer permanent french acrylic.

Wraps lift more than gel or acrylic...I recommend gel

I get the perm french in the acrylic - never had fake nails any other way. I get just the pink filled every 2 weeks, and then the pink AND white filled every 4 weeks (so every other time you go to the salon basically). And they put that gel stuff over the nails instead of clear polish.

Does it stay looking just as good between salon visits?
I found with my silk wraps needed a polish change every week even though they only needed to be filled every 2 weeks....... the polish got dull and not as nice looking...
