Most clients enjoy 2–4 weeks of chip-free wear, depending on activity, shoe friction and aftercare. Schedule regular touch-ups and avoid harsh chemicals or prolonged hot water to maximize longevity; a salon soak-off preserves nail health when removing gel.

We prioritize organic, low-irritant formulas and strict hygiene to reduce reactions. For sensitive skin we recommend a brief patch test and that you inform your technician about allergies. Professional removal and tailored prep further minimize irritation risks.

Arrive with clean feet and avoid heavy lotions before your appointment. Bring color references if desired. If you have thick calluses or known foot conditions, mention them at booking so technicians can adapt the service safely and effectively.

Often yes, but compatibility depends on the condition and adhesion of existing enhancements. If extensions are lifting or damaged, removal may be recommended before applying gel. Your technician will assess and advise the safest option during consultation.

Keep nails and cuticles hydrated with oil, avoid picking at edges, and wear protective footwear. Use gentle cleansers and limit prolonged hot soaks. Regular touch-ups every 2–3 weeks and professional maintenance extend the gel finish and nail health.

We recommend professional removal to prevent thinning and damage. If removing at home, use an approved acetone soak-off method and avoid scraping. Improper removal increases risk of splitting; salon removal ensures safe, nourishing treatment afterwards.
