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 polish should be removed by filing the top coat and soaking in acetone for 10 to 15 minutes, never picked or pried off. Acrylics need professional filing or acetone soaking to avoid damaging the natural nail. Ripping extensions off rips layers of the real nail with them.
A full gel set on natural nails usually takes 45 to 75 minutes. Acrylic extensions with shaping need 90 to 120 minutes. Dip powder sits in the middle at about 60 to 90 minutes. Detailed nail art, like hand-painted patterns or small stones, adds 15 to 45 minutes per hand depending on complexity.
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.
Gel removes with 100 percent acetone soaked in foil for 10 to 15 minutes. Acrylic needs an electric file or careful soaking, never peeling or biting off. Dip powder lifts with acetone and a coarse file. Forceful removal strips the top nail layer and causes thinning for 4 to 6 months.
Gel polish typically lasts 14 to 21 days without major chipping. Acrylic extensions need a fill every 2 to 3 weeks as the natural nail grows. Dip powder lasts around 21 to 28 days. Lifting, peeling, or yellowing within 1 week usually signals poor application or preparation.
The technician shapes the nail, removes dead cuticle, buffs the surface, and applies base coat, colour, and top coat. For extensions, a tip or form is glued or fitted before layers are built up. Each gel layer cures under a UV or LED lamp for 30 to 60 seconds before the next coat.
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.
A gel manicure on natural nails lasts 14 to 21 days before visible lifting at the cuticle. Acrylic extensions last 3 to 4 weeks before a fill is needed. Dip powder holds 3 to 5 weeks with normal use. Growth rate, water exposure, and nail oil use all shorten these windows.
The technician sanitises both hands, then trims and files to the agreed shape. Cuticle work follows with nippers or a soft remover. A dehydrator and primer go on, then the chosen product in thin layers. Each layer cures or sets fully before the next, finishing with a top coat and cuticle oil.
