Expert Tip
For that true 'photo-real' finish, ensure your foil adhesive is perfectly tacky—not too wet, not too dry—to get the cleanest, most complete transfer of the intricate metallic pattern. A high-quality, ultra-glossy top coat is non-negotiable for sealing in the luminosity and protecting your stunning nail design.

Frequently Asked Questions
What makes these nails 'photo-real'?
The term 'photo-real' refers to the exceptional clarity, depth, and highly reflective quality of the foil patterns, making them appear as intricate and lifelike as a photograph of real metallic textures.
How long do Photo-Real Salon Foil Nails typically last?
With professional application and diligent aftercare, these nails typically last 2-3 weeks, similar to a high-quality gel manicure, before needing a fill or removal.
Can I customize the foil pattern or color?

Is this design damaging to natural nails?
No, when applied and removed correctly by a certified professional, this design is safe for your natural nails. Proper prep and gentle, soak-off removal are key to maintaining nail health.
Is this a good option for short nails?
While stunning on all lengths, medium to long nails tend to allow the intricate photo-real details of the foil to be showcased more prominently, maximizing the visual impact of the design.
Do I need a UV/LED lamp for this design?
Yes, most photo-real foil adhesives and all gel top coats used to seal and protect this design require a UV/LED lamp for proper curing, ensuring maximum durability and a long-lasting, glossy finish.
Aftercare Tips

Safe Removal
