Beautiful, well-groomed nails are an important part of your overall look. Attractive nails and hands enhance your appearance, whether you spend your days in a kitchen or in a boardroom. A basic manicure takes between 30-45 minutes. Sculptured nail services, such as tips and acrylics average about an hour. The cost is quite reasonable, and the results are well worth it.

Sculptured nails are the perfect solution for many "nail events" in your life. They are a perfect solution for replacing a broken nail. They are great as a temporary fix until your own nails grow out. And they are there - instantly.

What are the main advantages of Sculptured nail applications?

 For people who have a tendency to bite or pick at their nails, there is a 90 percent success rate of stopping with sculptured nail applications. There are two reasons for this.  

First, people are less likely to ruin something they've spent time and money on.

Secondly, nail biters are generally inspired by having beautiful hands for the first time in their lives.
 

Will my natural nails continue to grow under the acrylics? 

Sculptured nails can actually improve the health of your natural nails by protecting them from biting, picking, excess moisture and other elements that can weaken or damage them.
 

How are sculptured nail applications maintained? 

Every two weeks your nail technician will fill in the area near the cuticle between where the natural nail has grown and where the sculptured nail or tip is attached.

This "fill" includes re-sanitizing and re-applying the acrylic where it has grown out.

How long will a basic manicure last? 

A basic manicure will last one to two weeks, depending on your lifestyle and the type of service you've had.

If, for example, you work in the garden without gloves, your manicure probably won't last long. Sculptured nail services such as acrylics and/or tips maintain their fresh appearance much longer.

Maintaining your nails between salon visits with professional products will give your nails a just-manicured look.

How long do sculptured nail applications usually last?

Sculptured nail applications should be maintained every two weeks.

It is important to have regular fills because if the acrylic lifts away from the natural nail, moisture and bacteria can accumulate between them.

A professional nail technician can spot problem areas better than someone with an untrained eye.

How long will it take for my nails to return to normal after removing my acrylics? 

If your natural nails were filed properly in the beginning, and if you've been maintaining your sculptured nails with regular visits to the salon, your nails will be in good condition after the acrylic nail is removed.
