Remove old polish at home the day before, but avoid cutting cuticles yourself within 48 hours. Push back the cuticle gently after a warm shower. Skip hand cream on appointment day so the nail plate is dry and the product bonds well. Short, clean nails give the technician a stable base.
Gel uses a soft gel cured under a UV or LED lamp for 30 to 60 seconds per layer. Acrylic mixes a liquid monomer with a powder polymer and hardens in the air within 2 to 3 minutes. Dip powder seals the nail in colour powder and activator. Gel feels lighter, acrylic is stronger, dip sits between them.
Lifting within 5 days usually means the nail was not dehydrated or the product was applied too thick. Yellowing comes from UV exposure or dark pigment without a base coat. Cracking at the sidewall points to a tip pressed on too narrow. Bubbles form when the gel is cured too hot or too thick.
Ask to see the technician's portfolio of recent work on real clients. Confirm the salon follows local hygiene rules and uses sterilised or single-use tools. Check that gel products are cured with a proper lamp, not air-dried. A clear price list for each service prevents surprise charges at the end.
Price varies with the technician's experience, the salon's location, and the complexity of the design. Plain gel is the baseline, hand-painted art adds per nail, and 3D elements or rhinestones add more. Long extensions cost extra over short overlays. Always ask for a written quote covering the full work.
Remove old polish at home 24 hours before so the technician can start clean. Push back, do not cut, your cuticles for 3 days prior. Avoid oils, creams, or cuticle softener on appointment day because they block adhesion. File any sharp edges square so the technician can assess your natural nail length.
A basic gel manicure usually takes 35 to 50 minutes. An acrylic or gel extension full set takes 60 to 90 minutes. Detailed hand-painted art on every nail can add 20 to 40 minutes. Book extra time if you want both hands and feet done in one visit.
Wear gloves for cleaning, washing dishes, or gardening to protect the design. Apply cuticle oil once a day to keep the nail bed flexible. Avoid using nails as tools to pry or scrape. Reapply a fresh top coat every 7 to 10 days to restore shine and seal the colour.
Look for a portfolio with clear, recent photos taken under daylight. Ask which brands they use and check the labels are sealed, not decanted. Confirm the technician holds a current hygiene certificate. Read at least 10 reviews mentioning lifting, breakage, or allergic reactions to spot recurring problems before booking.
