Gel, Acrylics, or Nail Tips? How to Choose Your Base

Gel, Acrylics, or Nail Tips? How to Choose Your Base

Gel Polish

Long-lasting gel applied directly to your natural nail in a curated range of shades. Best if you like your natural length or aren't ready for extensions.

Acrylics

Sculpted extensions built to your preferred shape and length — square, almond, coffin, and beyond. The choice for dramatic length or extra durability. Pairs especially well with nail art printing, since the larger surface gives a design more room.

Nail Tips + Gel

Press-on tips with a gel overlay — instant length and a polished finish, faster than a full acrylic sculpt.

Want It All in One Visit?

The Signature Combo bundles a gel or acrylic base, machine-printed art, and a sealing gel topcoat in a single appointment — rated for 30+ days of wear, and the studio's most popular combination.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which base lasts longest?

Acrylics and Nail Tips + Gel typically hold their shape longer than Gel Polish alone, due to less visible regrowth.

Can I decide in person instead of at booking?

Yes — every service is delivered by a technician who can advise on shape and base once they see your natural nails.
