I was wondering if anyone had an opinion on whether bio gel nails were better than the older, more common acrylic types? Most people seem to be saying that bio gel nails last longer and have a more natural feel to them. Plus, I believe that bio gels allow the natural nail to grow naturally whereas acrylics do not. I cannot imagine why this would be the case, if anyone has the answer to this then please let me know. It is also a fact that when having bio gels fixed there is not so much of a smell as when having acrylics done.
