What is Gel X?
Gel X uses full-cover soft gel tips. Each tip is pre-shaped to cover your whole nail, and we attach it with a gel adhesive that sets under an LED light. Because the shape comes from the tip, every nail matches.
What to expect at your appointment
We prep your natural nails, size a tip for each finger, apply and cure them, then shape and finish with your color. Add nail art, French tips, or chrome to make the set your own.
How long does Gel X last?
Most clients wear Gel X for about 3 to 4 weeks. When it's time, we soak it off gently and you can start fresh with a new set.
Caring for your set
Use cuticle oil every day or two, wear gloves when you clean, and use your fingertips instead of your nails to open things. If a nail lifts or breaks, come in for a repair instead of pulling it off.
Common questions
Does Gel X damage your nails?
Not when it's put on and taken off properly. Damage usually comes from peeling or prying a set off at home, so let us soak it off for you.
Can I get Gel X short?
Yes. Tips come in different lengths and we shape them to the length you want, from short and natural to long almond or coffin.
Should I get Gel X or acrylic?
Gel X is lighter and more flexible, and great for first-timers and nail art. Acrylic is the strongest and can be filled as it grows. Our blog article compares them side by side.
