What is this?
Gel nail extensions, apart from hybrid manicure, are one of the most popular methods of nail extension. It is also an ideal way to tame nails that are weak and slowly growing, because thanks to a gel manicure you can significantly extend the nail plate and give it any shape. This method is also great when we want to get a delicate and natural effect.

Are your nails brittle, fragile and are you looking for an effective but easily accessible manicure? Then a gel manicure is definitely an option for you. If you are wondering what exactly are gel nails, whether this method will work on your nails and how to do it, check out the information below.

What exactly does the entire process of creating a gel extension look like?
Gel nail extension can be performed in two ways, but both include a gel that cures under a UV lamp. Most often, the technique of extension on a template is used to work with the gel, which allows the desired nail extension. In the case of brittle or bitten nails, a thin tip is glued to the plate, which is then covered with a gel. Finally, in both techniques, the nails are shaped with a file or milling machine, and then optional decorations are added.

Who are gel nails for?
Gel extensions are a great option when nails are short, grow slowly and are prone to breaking. They will also prove useful when the nail plate breaks frequently and the desired effect is growing nails. The gel is also chosen by women who opt for a permanent manicure because of the way it works - the gel will not be problematic and will not lose its quality when, for example, frequent soaking of the hands in water.

Risks associated with the gel:

  • Mycoses and yeasts of the skin and nails.
  • Changes on the nail plate, such as furrows, folds, ecchymoses, thickenings, pits, purulent conditions and infections.
  • Allergies, preparations used in the treatment, diseases.
