Classic polish should look clean for 4 to 5 days with normal use. Gel should last 10 to 14 days without peeling if cured properly. If lifting happens before day 5, the prep was probably rushed and the pro should redo it at no charge.
Prices vary by technique, nail condition, and add-ons. Gel costs about 30% to 50% more than classic polish. French tips, chrome powder, or hand-painted art add time, so each nail art design can raise the total by 15% to 25%. Travel distance matters.
The most common issue is lifting gel within 3 days, caused by oily nail plates or thick application. Bleeding cuticles happen when nippers are dull. White spots appear when nails stay wet too long. If polish chips within 24 hours, the base coat was likely skipped.
Remove old polish at home with a non-acetone remover the night before. Push back cuticles gently with a wooden stick after a shower. Do not cut your own cuticles. Leave nails bare so the pro can see the natural plate and choose the right prep.
Watch that the pro washes hands before starting and wears fresh gloves. Implements that touch broken skin, like nippers, must be sterilized between clients. Pumice stones and foam buffers must be new. If anything looks reused or damp, ask for a replacement before work begins.
Ask if they are licensed in your area, which products they use, and whether tools are autoclaved or single-use. Confirm whether gel removal is included in future visits or billed as an extra service. Request the exact travel fee for your address.
The pro should carry a sterilized metal file, a cuticle pusher, nippers, a buffer block, bowls for soaking, and a portable LED lamp for gel. Files and buffers are single-use. Reusable metal tools must arrive in an autoclave bag that is opened in front of you.
A classic manicure at home lasts 30 to 45 minutes. A gel application takes 45 to 60 minutes because each coat needs 30 to 60 seconds under the LED lamp. Add 10 minutes if you want nail art on more than two fingers.
Classic polish dries in air and lasts about 4 to 5 days without chips. Gel polish cures under UV or LED and holds 10 to 14 days. Shellac is a softer gel hybrid, easier on the nail plate, but the base coat must be soaked off, not filed.
A standard manicure includes nail shaping, cuticle work, hand soaking, cuticle removal, and polish application. Some pros add a short hand massage with cream or oil. Ask if hard gel or acrylics are part of the price or counted separately before booking.
