Aftercare

For the first 24 hours, please avoid soaking your hands or taking a hot bath/sauna. Apply Cuticle Oil twice daily - when you wake up and before bed is ideal. Wear gloves when washing up, gardening, applying fake tan/hair dye or any other heavy-duty activities. Do not pick your gel manicure, as this will cause damage to your natural nails. Remember, your nails are not tools! Please avoid using your nails to open cans/pick labels. Finally, don’t forget to book your next appt for 2-4 weeks time.

If you experience lifting between appointments, here are my top tips. Within 48 hrs of Your Manicure: Contact me ASAP, and I will do my best to get you booked back in for a free fix. After 48 hrs of Your Manicure: Please use a nail file to gently smooth any rough edges where the gel has lifted, and apply cuticle oil to keep the nail hydrated. Make sure you do not pick the gel off, as this will cause lasting damage to your natural nails - making them prone to breaks, splits and lifting in the future. Be your future friend!
