Metal tools should pass through a hospital-grade autoclave or be fully immersed in a registered cold sterilant for the label time, usually 20 to 30 minutes. Files and buffers must be new for each client. Disposable items like pumice sticks and toe separators are single-use only and discarded in a closed bin after.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.
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.
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.
Nail design covers shaping, polishing, and decorating fingernails or toenails using techniques like gel polish, acrylic extensions, and nail art. A professional shapes the nail, prepares the cuticle, applies the chosen product, and finishes with colour or detailed art. The goal is a clean, even result that suits your hand shape and daily routine.
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.
