Gel Nails In St George Utah?

Gel nails are made with a "light cured" or UV gel consisting of pre-mixed polymers and monomers. This special gel is first brushed onto the surface of the natural nail, then is set, or "cured," under an ultraviolet light. "No-light" gels, an alternative to the light cured gel, are slowly gaining in popularity. These gel nails are cured by brushing or spraying a gel activator onto the nails or by dipping the fingernails into water. Gel nails can be used over the entire nail and can also be used to fix split or broken nails. Artificial fingernails made from gel tend to look more natural than acrylic nails, but are not as strong or durable. Additionally, if they are not applied by a qualified professional, they may be hard to remove, resulting in damage to your natural nails.

Are Gel Nails For Me?

I found that gel nails are much stronger and longer lasting. This is not meaning that you can wait longer between fills than with acrylic nails though. Your natural nails still grow at the same rate. But you won't get as much lifting and chipping as with acrylic nails.

Depending on the individual, some people's nails grow faster than others. Some people could get theirs filled every week, every other week, or three weeks. It depends on how fast your nails grow. I always schedule the first fill two weeks out and then we can gauge your long term time frame from there.
