Gel Manicure

A gel manicure is the ultimate solution for vibrant, long-lasting nails. Unlike traditional nail polish, gel polish is cured under a UV or LED light, creating a glossy, chip-resistant finish that can withstand the demands of daily life. Whether you prefer a classic, neutral look or bold, trendy designs, a gel manicure offers a flawless result that stays picture-perfect for weeks.

The Procedure

  1. Nail Preparation: Cleaning, shaping, and cuticle care.
  2. Base Coat Application: A base layer is applied to protect your natural nails.
  3. Gel Polish Application: Layers of gel polish are meticulously painted and cured under UV/LED light.
  4. Top Coat & Final Curing: The top coat seals in the color and adds a high-gloss finish.
  5. Final Touches: Hydrating cuticle oil is applied for nourishment.

Service Details

Our gel manicure service includes a thorough nail prep, application of premium gel polish, and expert shaping for a professional finish. We offer a wide range of colors and designs to suit every style and occasion.

Contraindications

While gel manicures are generally safe, they may not be suitable if you:

  • Have damaged or brittle nails (e.g., splitting, peeling, or extreme weakness).

  • Are allergic to gel polish ingredients, such as methacrylates or acetone.

If any of these conditions apply, consult with a professional before proceeding to ensure the safety of your nails and skin.
