Anyone heard of Axxium by OPI?

Or what salon does it?

A girl on my club board posted about it and I guess it is a colored gel that they paint directly on your nails and lasts for three weeks. Then they just soak off so it does not harm your nails.

Anyone know if there is a salon in the twin cities that does this?

TIA!

    GAH!

    I thought this sounded familiar... I remember getting an e-mail about it from a nail salon I've been to in Maple Grove. They do it, and they e-mailed me a $5 off coupon for it. But I don't live there, so I probably wouldn't use it :)  Let me know if you want the offer, and I'll email it to you :)

    I don't know if I should believe it? Are you only supposed to use it on artifical nails?

    Spalon Montage does Axxium (I went to the one in Edina) it was awesome. your nails have to be the length you want them.(or if you are going to start some time before your wedding they will grow out, but that can be costly. They paint on the Axxium polish just like any nail polish, but also used a special top coat and I think bottom coat. The UV light is used in between  each layer. mine costed $45.00 and lasted over 2 weeks. They stayed shiney the whole time, and I got tons of compliments on them. The benefit is your nails look more natural. They say it doesn't damage the nails, but it does some- not as severe as acrylics. I also went to Phresh salon on Grand avenue, they didn't do as good of a job.

    Hope this helps.
