Gel is a material that is hardened after passing under a lamp. It exists in different shades, textures and functionalities. It can be worked on natural nails, on capsules or in stencil extensions. In this article, Maryton Nail Supply will explain everything to you. Just keep reading!
The application of gel consists of preparing the natural nail then applying the base, the extension of the nail and/or the construction. The surface of the gel will then be filed in order to make it visually harmonious. The next step will depend on your preference, a French or color, with an application in 1 or 2 layers or left natural. Finally, a shiny gloss will be applied to enhance your application for at least 3 weeks.
To harden all the steps, the gel is catalyzed under a UV or UV/LED lamp.
The advantages of gel nails:
1. Thanks to the construction, natural nails are reinforced, therefore stronger.
2. You can do all nail shapes, without any constraints.
3. There is a wide choice in terms of colors and Nail Art.
4. You will have implacable nails for 3-4 weeks.
5. UV gel can correct all nail defects without exception (crooked nail, springboard, …)
The disadvantages of gel nails:
1. The application takes time; count about 1h30 or more if you ask for an artistic service.
2. The price is also higher depending on the technique used or the Nail Art decorations requested.
3. The gel does not dissolve. To remove it, there is only one way: file. If you are skilled, an electric nail file will greatly improve your efficiency.
In conclusion, it is up to you to choose which technique is best suited to your lifestyle, your desires and also your budget.
