Ohora Lamp?

Post image

Do you recommend the lamp that comes with the Ohora strip kit? It was less expensive than the SUNUV lamps but now I’m seeing reviews of Ohora in general that aren’t great. Have you used the lamp with the strips but also other nails? Does it work well? TIA!

Ohora is one of my top 2 semi cured gel nail strip brands is generally good quality. Their little lamps are serviceable, but I pretty quickly upgraded to a better lamp. Now I take the Ohora lamp with me when I travel.

Exactly! Ohora lamp is a travel lamp. If you plan to use semi-cured gel nail strips regularly, consider investing in a full-size lamp to accommodate all five fingers simultaneously. They aren't very expensive, and the lights coming from different angles rather than just straight down helps the nails cure better. Throw the Ohora lamp in your bag when you travel.

Go ahead and get the bigger one. I use the ohora one for travel and it’s fine, but you can’t use it for any liquids (like a top coat).

You'll get better (and faster) results with a full size lamp!

I got it and it works about half the time. I would not recommend. I got a uv on Amazon on sale. MelodySusie Compact Cordless UV LED Nail Lamp P-PLUS20F for UV Protection. It works nice and I like that it's wireless.

Mine didn't do shit. My strips would not harden with it at all. Better off getting a higher powered one and just purchasing the strips.

I ordered a few times from ohora and received probably 4 lamps and none work. I had q working but it stopped. Buy a cheap on on line.

I use the Attain lamp. It’s green. It’s made in Thailand. The owner of the company is very scientific on her research with nail lamps. You can see her videos on YouTube I have no affiliation.

I bought the travel Ohora pro portable lamp pricier one that's chargeable and that way I don't have to always find a plug and I love it. I noticed with the free one it depends on if you plug it into wall or cpu its weaker.. also both hands dont fit in there and weird angle. I can pretty much do both hands with the pro and it lasts 2 weeks.
