Biogel vs Acrylic
10 What is the difference between Biogel and Acrylic?
Biogel gives a flexible, natural-looking finish with added strength. Acrylic is firmer and works well for longer extensions or more structured shapes.
11 Which option looks more natural?
Biogel is often chosen for a lighter, natural-looking finish. Acrylic is better when you want stronger structure, longer extensions, or dramatic shapes.

Yes, many Biogel and acrylic sets can be refilled if the existing set is in good condition. Your technician will assess it at the appointment.

15 Can I book manicure and pedicure together?
Yes. Booking both services together is possible when the schedule allows. Reserve online or call the location to coordinate timing.
Nail Art
16 Can I send an inspiration photo before my appointment?
Yes. Inspiration photos help our technicians understand your preferred color, shape, length, and nail art details before your visit.
17 How is nail art priced?
Nail art pricing depends on design complexity, number of nails, stones, chrome, line work, and time required.
18 Can you copy an exact design?
Inspiration photos are welcome. The final result may vary based on your nail length, shape, color availability, and the details of the design.
Aftercare
19 How do I make my nails last longer?
Wear gloves for cleaning, avoid using nails as tools, apply cuticle oil regularly, and schedule refills before the set grows out too far.
20 What if a nail breaks after my appointment?
Contact the salon as soon as possible. We will review the issue and help you schedule a repair if needed.

Most clients book a refill before the set grows out too far. Timing depends on nail growth and the service used, so ask your technician for a recommended interval.
