Inspect the lateral walls where the gel meets the skin. White lines indicate lifting, meaning the product did not adhere properly to the side of the nail. Lifting traps moisture, creating an optimal environment for bacterial growth and potential infection under the artificial tip.
Observe the sanding block grit used. Technicians should start with coarser grits for bulk reduction and finish with finer grits for smoothness. Using only coarse files damages the free edge and causes rapid chipping. Proper filing texture ensures the polymer bonds correctly without lifting.
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.
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.
Ask how they remove previous sets if you are switching providers. Soaking is safer than aggressive filing, which thins the natural nail repeatedly. Inquire about the soaking duration required. Proper removal preserves your natural nail thickness, preventing long-term fragility and damage from repeated salon visits.
Ask how many seconds each layer cures. Most LED lamps require different times for different gel types. Rushing the cure cycle results in gummy nails that are soft to the touch. Proper curing hardens the structure, preventing cracking and warping during daily use.
Inquire if the technician applies a dehydrator and primer before the gel. Skipping this step causes poor adhesion and lifting within days. A proper base ensures the extension bonds to the natural nail plate securely. Ask specifically about the product brand used for this crucial preparatory stage.
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.
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.
Ask if the gels contain HEMA or formaldehyde, common sensitizers. Some clients react to these chemicals, developing itchy rashes days after service. A reputable technician can offer hypoallergenic alternatives upon request. Knowing your skin sensitivity beforehand prevents painful post-service complications and discomfort.
