Frequently Asked Questions
How long does this Photo-Real Salon Chevron design typically last?
With proper application of gel polish and diligent aftercare, this design can last 2-3 weeks without chipping or dulling.
Can I achieve this precision Chevron.Design on short nails?
While possible on shorter nails, the intricate chevron pattern truly shines and is best showcased on medium to long nail lengths, allowing ample space for the design.
Is this design created freehand or with stencils/tape?
For a 'photo-real' and professional salon quality, precision tools like ultra-fine striping tape or high-quality stencils are highly recommended over freehand, although a skilled artist can achieve it with a detail brush.

Gel polish is ideal for this design due to its self-leveling properties, durability, and the ability to cure precisely, ensuring crisp lines without smudging.
What if my lines aren't perfectly straight?
Precision takes practice! Using thin layers, fully curing between steps, and utilizing striping tape are key. Don't be afraid to clean up lines with a fine brush dipped in acetone before curing.
Can I request metallic accents within the chevron pattern?
Absolutely! Metallic gel polishes or fine glitter lines can be integrated beautifully into the chevron pattern, adding an extra dimension and glamor to the photo-real finish.
Aftercare Tips
