Do gel nails lift like acrylic nails do?

I used to love getting pink and white acrylics but after a week, they start to lift near the cuticle and they don’t look as nice. It’s a lot of money to spend for only a week’s worth of looking nice. Do gel nails lift like acrylics do? I’m looking for people who have had personal experience because I’ve already Googled it and there are mixed reviews. Currently, I’m getting the Shellac on my nails (new product as of May 10) and I love it but one of my nails still tore, even with the Shellac on so I think I need to stick with gel or acrylic if I want my nails to stay looking nice…I just don’t want to put up with lifting anymore.
