Which Treatment Is Right for You?

If you want a natural, low maintenance look, a gel manicure is a great choice. If you’re after extra length and strength, acrylics or builder gel are worth considering. Many of our clients pair their nails with a spray tan or lash appointment for a full glow up before an event.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do acrylic nails last?
With proper care and regular infills every 2 to 3 weeks, acrylic nails can look great for months.

Is builder gel better than acrylic?
Builder gel tends to feel more natural and lightweight, while acrylics offer extra strength and durability. Your nail technician can help you decide based on your lifestyle and nail goals.

Can I get nail art on any treatment?
Yes, nail art can be added to manicures, acrylics, or builder gel, from subtle accents to full statement designs.

How should I look after my nails afterwards?
Keep cuticle oil to hand and apply it daily, it does wonders for keeping nails and skin looking their best between appointments. Try to wear gloves for washing up or cleaning, and avoid using your nails as tools (we know it’s tempting). If anything feels off before your next visit, just give us a call.
