Keep your manicure looking fresh longer with these pro tips from Kate:
Hydrated cuticles prevent lifting and keep your nails flexible. Apply before bed for best absorption.
Harsh chemicals and prolonged water exposure are the #1 cause of premature chipping and lifting.
Opening cans, peeling stickers, or typing with your tips puts stress on the nail bed. Use the pads of your fingers instead.
For acrylics and gel extensions, fills every 2-3 weeks prevent lifting and keep your nails looking fresh.
Your questions answered
With proper care, gel manicures last 2-3 weeks without chipping. Kate uses premium gel products and thorough prep techniques that maximize wear time. Avoid picking at your nails, and they'll look salon-fresh until your next visit.
It depends on your goals! Gel is great for natural-nail lovers who want long-lasting color. Acrylics are ideal for extensions and intricate nail art. Dip powder offers strength without UV exposure. Kate will help you choose during your consultation.
Yes! Kate can repair cracks, breaks, and splits using silk wraps, gel overlays, or acrylic patches. If you break a nail between appointments, call or text—she often accommodates quick repair visits.
