Gel polish usually lasts two to three weeks depending on nail growth and daily activities. Proper prep and professional application extend wear; avoid harsh chemicals and use cuticle oil to maintain flexibility and prevent premature lifting.

When applied and removed correctly by a trained technician, gel polish should not damage nails. Avoid peeling or prying and schedule professional soak-off removals. Regular breaks between gel cycles and proper nail care help maintain strength and health.

Absolutely. Gel polish is ideal for color changes and detailed nail art because it cures between layers. Our technicians can create designs, ombré, or embellishments with lasting shine. Additional charges may apply for complex art or extra time.

The add-on typically adds 10–25 minutes to your regular manicure, depending on nail prep and chosen polish. Curing under our LED lamp is quick, and more intricate nail art or treatment may extend the total appointment time.

Gel polish is generally considered safe during pregnancy, but some clients with chemical sensitivities should consult their healthcare provider. We offer hypoallergenic base options and can adjust products on request. Inform your technician about allergies before service.

Protect your manicure by wearing gloves for chores, applying cuticle oil daily, and avoiding harsh solvents. If lifting occurs, return for a professional repair rather than peeling. Regular moisturizing and gentle filing keep nails healthy and extend polish life.
