What Are Gel X Nails?
They are a new generation of gel extensions that provide a more flexible, durable, and natural alternative to traditional acrylic nails. Unlike traditional acrylics, which involve mixing liquid and powder, they are made from a pre-formed gel tip that is applied directly to the natural nail, making the process quicker, cleaner, and more comfortable.
How Do Gel X Nails Work?
The process for it is simple and quick, and the results are stunning:
- Nail Preparation: First, your natural nails are cleaned, shaped, and prepared for the Gel X application. Cuticles are pushed back, and the nails are lightly buffed.
- Gel X Tips: The technician selects a Gel X tip that is tailored to your natural nail shape and length. These tips are made from a flexible gel material that bonds easily to the natural nail.
- Application: The Gel X tips are applied using a gel adhesive, ensuring a strong and long-lasting bond.
- Curing: The nails are cured under an LED light to set the gel, ensuring durability.
- Finishing Touches: Once the nails are fully set, they are shaped, and you can choose from a variety of finishes and colors, including French tips, Ombre, and Glitter Gel.
