It's myth debunking time, babes!

Experts like Abramcyk, Choi, Apfel Glass, and Dr. King all practice polish breaks, just to make sure their nails are in a good place strength-wise. Your approach doesn't have to be prescriptive; Choi believes in"taking a few days’ break from polish once every month or two." That said, if you’re happy with the way you do your nails and aren’t observing any ill effects, then there’s no pressing reason to give it up.

Personally, I rotate between hard gels, soft gels, and regular polish. If my nails feel different after a gel service, I find it's less a sign of"weakness" and more like I'm noticing the absence of a coating that I've been used to for three weeks. I'm wearing a hard gel now and, after a proper professional removal, I'm going to switch to regular DIY manicures for a while.
