Gel French manicure
The Process
Our Gel French manicure, an absolute classic, starts with a thorough cleaning of your nails. We buff them to perfection, then we apply a base gel that is cured under UV light for a strong, durable foundation. Next, we skilfully apply the iconic white paint on the tips, creating the universally recognized French manicure look. The white is crisp, vibrant, and perfect for any occasion. The final step is to apply a top gel coat, once again cured under UV light. This provides a fantastic gloss finish as well as additional strength and longevity.
The Result
The result is a beautifully polished, chip-resistant, and long-lasting shine. A Gel French manicure doesn't just look stunning, but it's also durable, capable of withstanding the wear and tear of everyday life without losing any of its charm. This treatment guarantees a delightful experience in which you will leave with nails that are both gorgeous and practical. They won't chip, break, or fade, even as the weeks go by, and they are resistant to most types of damage. Plus, with the aid of the UV-cured gel, your nails will be stronger and healthier than ever.
