The Complete OPI Buying Guide: Professional Nail Colour & Care for Every Client

OPI has been the professional nail industry's gold standard since 1981. What started as a dental supply company transformed into the world's most recognized professional nail brand, with over 200 shades, four formula systems, and a global presence in the most prestigious salons. OPI is the brand behind legendary shade names — from "I'm Not Really a Waitress" to "Bubble Bath" — that have become cultural touchstones in the beauty world.

OPI's four core systems meet every client preference: Nail Lacquer for classic painted nails, GelColor for 3-week wear with no chipping, Infinite Shine for gel-like results without UV light, and Nature Strong for those seeking a plant-based formula. All are supported by a comprehensive ProSpa nail and hand care collection that keeps nails and cuticles salon-ready between appointments.

At ProHair.ca, we carry the full OPI professional lineup — nail lacquers, gel systems, treatments, and ProSpa care — so salons and beauty professionals can offer their clients the undeniable quality and colour range that OPI is famous for.
