About Manicure

How long the finish should last

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.

Nail shape and cuticle care

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.

Tools the professional must bring

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.

How to prepare your nails before the visit

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.

How long the finish should last

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.

Classic, gel, or shellac: which one to pick

Classic polish dries in air and lasts about 4 to 5 days without chips. Gel polish cures under UV or LED and holds 10 to 14 days. Shellac is a softer gel hybrid, easier on the nail plate, but the base coat must be soaked off, not filed.

What to ask before hiring

Ask if they are licensed in your area, which products they use, and whether tools are autoclaved or single-use. Confirm whether gel removal is included in future visits or billed as an extra service. Request the exact travel fee for your address.

What usually goes wrong

The most common issue is lifting gel within 3 days, caused by oily nail plates or thick application. Bleeding cuticles happen when nippers are dull. White spots appear when nails stay wet too long. If polish chips within 24 hours, the base coat was likely skipped.

When to skip the appointment

Reschedule if you have open cuts near the nail, an active fungal infection, or fresh gel that was applied less than 2 weeks ago. Pregnant clients can book normally, but ask for a well-ventilated room if strong acrylic or acetone smells are a concern.

Classic, gel, or shellac polish

Classic polish dries in air and usually chips within 3 to 5 days. Gel polish needs a 36 to 48 W UV or LED lamp and lasts 14 to 21 days without peeling. Shellac is a softer gel-hybrid, removed in about 8 minutes with pure acetone, while classic gel needs 15 minutes of soaking and foil wraps.
