Who would benefit most from gel polish?

1. Someone with weak natural nails

2. A client with strong natural nails

3. Anyone wanting quick drying nails

4. A client who prefers frequent color changes

The correct answer is: A client with strong natural nails

Gel polish is specifically formulated to provide a long-lasting, durable finish while maintaining a natural look, which generally benefits clients with strong natural nails. Strong natural nails offer a solid foundation for the application, allowing the gel polish to adhere properly and maintain its integrity over time. Clients with strong natural nails can also enjoy a finish that enhances their nail’s natural beauty while providing protection against chipping and breakage. The flexibility and durability of gel polish can complement the resilience of strong nails, making it an ideal choice for those who desire a polished look without compromising their nail health. Weak natural nails may not sustain the weight of gel polish effectively, leading to potential issues with lifting or breaking. Additionally, individuals wanting quick drying nails or those who prefer frequent color changes might not require the specific durability and long-lasting qualities that gel polish offers, which are more suited to clients who appreciate a robust finish on their nails.
