Hard acrylic offers rigid protection but requires filing every 3 weeks. Soft gel looks natural and bends more easily. Fiber reinforcement adds strength for thin nails. Dip powder creates a matte finish without UV lamps. Each method lasts 3 to 4 weeks before lifting starts. Choose based on desired look and durability needs.
Many gels contain bis-GMA or other chemicals that cause delayed allergic reactions. Symptoms appear 12 to 48 hours after application. Look for itchy cuticles or redness. Ask if they offer hypoallergenic or formaldehyde-free brands. You may need specific trial strips before a full set. If you have a history of reactions, bring your old bottle label. Cross-contamination from old brushes in the salon can also trigger sudden flare-ups and swelling.
Ask how tools are sterilized between clients. You need autoclave logs, not just alcohol wipes. Metal files and clippers must be heat-sterilized. Single-use items like sponges and wooden sticks are thrown away. If they reuse anything without proof of deep cleaning, walk away. Fungal infections from shared tools are common and painful to treat later, so verify the process strictly.
Bring 3 reference images before the session. Discuss color codes accurately, like OPI shade names. Agree on sticker quality if using transfers. Request a sketch for intricate hand-painted work. Clarify which hands or feet are included. Adjust expectations based on natural nail shape limitations.
Removing gel art requires acetone soaks, which smell strong and dry out skin. Ask if they provide cotton clips or foil wraps to contain fumes. Some technicians open jars repeatedly, increasing air exposure. This can irritate sensitive eyes and respiratory systems. If you have allergies, request low-fume alternatives or open air ventilation. Discuss this before they start removing your old polish. Do not wait until the jar is already stuck to your nails.
UV lamps cure gel in 60 seconds. LED lamps take 30 seconds but emit less heat. Blue light activates photoinitiators in the polish. Ask if the artist uses quality lamps to prevent under-curing. Under-cured gel peels off easily. Proper curing ensures firm adhesion and prevents bacterial trapping under the nail plate.
Avoid soaking hands in hot water for the first several hours after application. Water expands the natural nail beneath the rigid overlay. This stress can cause lifting or cracking. Apply cuticle oil daily to keep surrounding skin hydrated. Dry skin pulls on the seal. If you do dishes, wear rubber gloves. Harsh soaps strip moisture and degrade the top coat faster than plain hand soap ever would.
Decide how long you want your nails before the appointment. Short styles usually involve 3 mm to 5 mm of free edge. Longer styles require extensions using tips or sculpting forms. Ask if the master shapes the natural nail or only adds material. Over-filing weakens the plate. Confirm the exact length in millimeters to avoid disappointment or breakage during the first 24 hours at home.
Base gels cost less than extended length extensions. Art prices vary per hand. Hand-painted designs charge 15 to 30 dollars extra per nail. Stickers add 5 to 10 dollars. Travel fees apply for distances over 15 miles. Ask for an itemized quote showing labor, products, and added services separately.
Nail extensions grow out as your natural nail grows. Most people need a fill every 2 weeks to maintain structure. Gaps at the cuticle expose water and bacteria. This causes lifting and potential infection. Ask about their cancellation policy for rescheduled fills. Late arrivals shorten the service window. Consistency keeps the balance point strong and prevents the entire set from cracking under stress or accidental impact.
