Frequently Asked Questions
What Are Shellac Nails?
Shellac Nails are a professional nail treatment that combines the ease of traditional nail polish with the durability of gel technology. Applied in thin layers and cured under an LED or UV lamp, Shellac creates a high-shine, chip-resistant finish that looks flawless and lasts significantly longer than regular nail polish. It is a popular choice for clients looking for beautiful, low-maintenance nails that remain glossy and well-groomed for weeks.
How Long Do Shellac Nails Last?
Shellac Nails typically last around two to three weeks, depending on your lifestyle, nail growth, and aftercare routine. One of the main benefits of Shellac is its resistance to chipping, peeling, and dulling, helping your manicure maintain its fresh appearance for longer than traditional nail polish.
What Is the Difference Between Shellac and Gel Nails?
Both Shellac and Gel Nails provide a long-lasting finish, but there are some differences between the two treatments. Shellac is a hybrid formula that combines traditional nail polish with gel technology, creating a thinner, more natural-looking finish. Gel Nails are typically thicker and may provide additional strength and durability.
Shellac is often preferred by clients who want a lightweight feel and glossy finish, while Gel Nails may be better suited to those looking for added structure or nail enhancements. During your appointment, we can help you choose the most suitable option for your nails and lifestyle.
Will Shellac Damage My Natural Nails?
When applied and removed correctly by a trained professional, Shellac should not damage the natural nail. Problems most commonly occur when the product is peeled or picked off at home, which can remove layers of the natural nail. Professional removal helps maintain healthy, strong nails and protects their natural condition.
How Long Does a Shellac Nail Appointment Take?
A Shellac Nail appointment typically takes between 45 and 90 minutes. This includes nail preparation, cuticle work, application of the Shellac colour, and curing each layer for a durable, high-shine finish. If you require removal of an existing Shellac manicure, additional time may be needed.
