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.
Some extensions come with a builder gel base. This base applies directly to the natural nail. It provides strength without adding bulk. These sets last 4 to 6 weeks. Standard tips add length and shape. Builder gel looks thinner but feels lighter. Choose based on your comfort level. Thinner sets are better for office workers who need subtle looks.
The free edge is the most fragile part. It absorbs water and expands daily. This expansion weakens the bond over time. Cracks start at the tips most often. If a tip cracks, repair it quickly. Do not let water soak into the break. Moisture causes the gel to turn grey and detach. Keep your nails dry when washing dishes to extend the life of the set.
Gel nails need 30 to 60 seconds per layer under a lamp. Acrylic hardens on its own within 5 minutes. Rushing the cure leaves the material soft and tacky. Soft layers break apart easily during normal hand movements. Ask how long they leave each layer to set. Proper curing ensures durability. It prevents the extensions from warping or shrinking against the natural nail.
Acid primer stings if it touches skin. It can cause redness or blistering. Tell the professional if you feel pain. They should apply it only to the nail surface. Base coat protects the skin from direct chemical contact. If you see red marks after the session, monitor them for 24 hours. Severe reactions require medical attention to prevent long-term damage to the nail matrix.
A good application uses primer, dehydrator, and bonding agent. Primer removes oils to help the glue stick. Dehydrator dries the nail plate completely. Bonding agent creates a stable bridge between nail and extension. Missing steps cause immediate peeling. Watch them apply thin layers. Thick blobs of product will never cure properly and remain sticky for years.
Extensions grow out as your natural nails grow. Regular fills are needed to maintain structure. Most people return every 3 weeks. Gaps appear at the cuticle line if you wait too long. These gaps trap dirt and cause lifting. Ask about their policy on missed appointments. Late fills cost more because the tech must rebuild lost length and bond surface.
Show them your tools before they begin. Files should be single-use or sterilized. Nail clippers must be wrapped in plastic. Surface cleaners are not enough for viral protection. Ask if they autoclave metal tools at high heat. Proper hygiene prevents fungal infections. It also reduces the risk of bacterial complications under the extension layer. Clean hands protect your skin health.
Decide on the length before starting. Short sets look clean but hide less of your natural nail. Long tips add shape but risk breaking easily. Ask for a fan size that matches your nail bed. A width mismatch causes lift at the cuticle. Measure with a ruler if you are unsure. Proper alignment prevents stress points that lead to early failure.
Ask if they use acrylic or gel. Acrylic is harder and lasts longer but smells strong. Gel is lighter and dries under a UV lamp. Gel extensions feel more natural but require specific lamps. Never mix materials without checking for chip resistance. The chemical composition affects how long the tips stay attached to your natural nail plate during daily wear.
