When applied and removed by professionals, Gel X minimizes damage compared to traditional extensions. Proper prep, adhesive use, and gentle removal protect the natural nail. Regular fills and allowing nails to breathe between sets further maintain nail health and strength.

Yes — our service includes one polish color applied after extension. Choose from our curated gel polish palette or bring a specific shade. We’ll recommend colors that complement your skin tone and nail shape for a polished, long-lasting finish.

Expect a full Gel X session to take about 60 to 90 minutes, including removal, nail prep, application, and polish. Complex shapes or nail art may extend time. We allow sufficient curing and inspection for durable, perfectly sculpted results.

Maintain Gel X with gentle handling, gloves for chores, and daily cuticle oil. Avoid prolonged exposure to acetone and harsh chemicals. Schedule fills every 2-3 weeks and return for professional removal to prevent lifting and keep nails healthy and attractive.
