Frequently Asked Questions
How long will my Salon Pink Nails last?
With proper application and care, this gel manicure can last 2-3 weeks without chipping or dulling.
Can I achieve this photo-real look at home?
While possible with practice, achieving true 'salon quality' requires specific tools, high-grade products, and precise technique best done by a professional.
What's the best shade of pink for this design?
Opt for a classic, clean pink like ballet slipper or a soft rose quartz. The key is a solid, even color rather than a sheer or glitter-packed hue.
Is this design damaging to my natural nails?
When applied and removed correctly by a trained professional, gel manicures are not damaging to your natural nails.
How do I maintain the high-gloss shine?
Regularly apply cuticle oil and avoid harsh chemicals or excessive hand washing, which can dull the top coat. You can also apply a thin layer of clear top coat at home for a refresh.
Does 'photo-real' mean it's a sticker or decal?
No, 'photo-real' refers to the immaculate, high-quality, and perfectly polished finish that resembles a professional photograph, not a specific printed design.
Aftercare Tips
- ✓Moisturize hands and nails regularly to keep them supple.
- ✓Avoid prolonged exposure to hot water immediately after application.
- ✓Do not pick or peel at the gel polish, as this can damage your natural nails.
- ✓Protect your nails from heavy impact in the first 24 hours.
Safe Removal
- 1.**File Top Coat:** Gently buff the top layer of gel polish with a coarse file to break the seal.
- 2.**Soak:** Soak cotton pads in acetone, place them on each nail, and wrap tightly with foil for 10-15 minutes.
- 3.**Gentle Removal:** Gently scrape off softened gel with a wooden cuticle stick. Never force or aggressively peel.
