OPI Gel French on Toes
The Process
Our ‘OPI Gel French on Toes’ package promises a perfect French pedicure experience combining style and staying power. Our nail specialists begin by preparing your toes for the treatment, cleaning and shaping the nails to achieve the ideal canvas for the OPI gel. A base coat is carefully applied, followed by the classic pink or nude base shade of your choice. The distinctive French pedicure ‘smile line’ is then expertly created using an ultra-bright white gel on the tips of your toes. Following these precise layers, we finish with the highly regarded OPI gel top coat. This process is cured under a UV light after each coat, ensuring superior bonding for an incredibly durable finish.

Does the UV light have any harmful effects?
The UV light used in gel nail treatments is safe and our specialists ensure your skin is minimally exposed during your treatment. Still, we recommend using a broad spectrum sunblock on your hands and feet if you frequently get gel nails.
Is the OPI Gel French on Toes treatment suitable for all types of nails?
Yes, the OPI Gel French on Toes treatment is suitable for most nail types. However, if you have very thin, brittle, or damaged nails, we recommend speaking with one of our technicians first to determine the best course of action.

How do I maintain my nails after the OPI Gel French on Toes treatment?
