Look at the tip shape construction. The apex should sit slightly past the natural fingertip for strength. If placed directly over the nail end, it becomes a leverage point for easy breaking. Proper apex placement distributes stress evenly across the entire extension length.
Ask how many seconds each layer cures. Most LED lamps require different times for different gel types. Rushing the cure cycle results in gummy nails that are soft to the touch. Proper curing hardens the structure, preventing cracking and warping during daily use.
Turn your hands over to inspect the cuticle area. Over-cutting exposes the live skin beneath, causing pain and infection risks. The technician should only remove dead skin. Ask if they use fine, non-metallic nippers designed specifically for delicate cuticle removal to prevent trauma.
Ensure the room has active exhaust fans running during service. Solvent vapors from removers or gels can irritate the respiratory system. Poor ventilation indicates sloppy hygiene practices. A professional studio should maintain negative pressure to keep air fresh and safe for everyone present.
Observe the sanding block grit used. Technicians should start with coarser grits for bulk reduction and finish with finer grits for smoothness. Using only coarse files damages the free edge and causes rapid chipping. Proper filing texture ensures the polymer bonds correctly without lifting.
Ask to inspect the nail under a UV lamp immediately after application. Properly cured gel should not feel tacky or sticky. If the surface remains soft, the lamp wattage was likely insufficient or the cure time was too short, leading to potential allergic reactions later.
Inquire if the technician applies a dehydrator and primer before the gel. Skipping this step causes poor adhesion and lifting within days. A proper base ensures the extension bonds to the natural nail plate securely. Ask specifically about the product brand used for this crucial preparatory stage.
Wear gloves when using cleaning products. Chemicals strip the bond between layers. Moisturize cuticles daily with oil. Dry cuticles lead to lifting. Avoid hot water soaking for long periods. Heat softens the gel and acrylic materials. Use a dry brush to clean debris. Gentle cleaning prevents buildup that forces you to remove the set early.
Do not use your nails as tools. Leaning on them causes immediate cracks. Avoid peeling the product. Peeling takes layers of your natural nail with it. This weakens the nail plate permanently. Use a proper file if a chip appears. Gentle filing smooths the edge. Aggressive filing generates heat and thins the nail thin. Careful maintenance extends the lifespan of your extensions significantly.
Prices vary by complexity. Simple almond shapes cost less than intricate designs. Decals and hand-painted art add time and labor. Ask if the quote includes a top coat. Top coats add shine and protection. Infill services cost less than full sets. They only need re-bonding at the cuticle. New clients pay more for full length application.
