Wear gloves for dishes and cleaning for at least 24 hours after gel. Apply cuticle oil every night for 7 days. Do not use nails as tools to open cans or peel stickers. Book a removal every 14 to 21 days to keep the nail plate healthy.
Classic polish looks fresh for 3 to 5 days. Gel holds 14 to 21 days without chipping. Shellac averages 14 days. Builder gel with apex can last 21 to 28 days if applied in 4 layers. Anything peeling within 48 hours usually means prep was skipped, the nail was over-buffed, or the lamp was mismatched.
Prices vary by technique, nail condition, and add-ons. Gel costs about 30% to 50% more than classic polish. French tips, chrome powder, or hand-painted art add time, so each nail art design can raise the total by 15% to 25%. Travel distance matters.
Remove old polish 24 hours in advance. Avoid applying hand cream or cuticle oil on the day, since oils block adhesion and cause gel to lift within 48 hours. Trim long nails to 3 mm above the fingertip to shorten filing time. Wash hands with soap, not alcohol-based sanitiser, right before the appointment.
Watch that the pro washes hands before starting and wears fresh gloves. Implements that touch broken skin, like nippers, must be sterilized between clients. Pumice stones and foam buffers must be new. If anything looks reused or damp, ask for a replacement before work begins.
A full kit should include a 180-grit file, a 240-grit buffer, cuticle nippers, a metal pusher, nippers, a UV or LED lamp, acetone, lint-free wipes, and disposable buffers. Files and buffers must be single-use. Padded mats or armrests are optional but reduce smudges during the first 10 minutes of drying.
A classic manicure at home lasts 30 to 45 minutes. A gel application takes 45 to 60 minutes because each coat needs 30 to 60 seconds under the LED lamp. Add 10 minutes if you want nail art on more than two fingers.
A standard manicure covers 6 steps: shaping the free edge, softening cuticles, pushing back excess skin, trimming hangnails, buffing the surface, and hydrating with cuticle oil. Ask whether cuticle nippers are used or only gel removers. Nippers require more precision and raise the risk of micro-cuts if your skin is sensitive.
Wear gloves for dishes and cleaning. Reapply cuticle oil 2 times a day for 7 days. Avoid picking lifted edges. Book the next visit every 2 to 3 weeks for gel, every 4 weeks for classic polish. Soak off gel only with acetone, never peel it, to keep the nail plate under 0.5 mm thick.
Classic polish should look clean for 4 to 5 days with normal use. Gel should last 10 to 14 days without peeling if cured properly. If lifting happens before day 5, the prep was probably rushed and the pro should redo it at no charge.
