Trying to decide between gel and regular polish? We break down the pros and cons so you can choose the best option for your lifestyle.
One of the most common questions we hear from clients is: should I get gel or regular polish? The honest answer is that it depends on your lifestyle and nail goals.
Regular Polish
Regular nail polish is affordable, quick to apply, and easy to remove at home. It is ideal if you like changing your nail colour frequently or prefer a low-commitment option. The downside is that it chips within a few days, especially if you work with your hands.
Gel Manicure
Gel polish is cured under a UV or LED lamp and can last two to three weeks without chipping. It gives a high-gloss finish that looks freshly done even after two weeks. Gel is perfect if you want long-lasting results and do not mind visiting the salon for removal.
Which Should You Choose?
If you love nail art, gel is far easier to work with and holds intricate designs better. If you prefer simplicity and variety, regular polish is your friend. Either way, our team is here to help you get the look you love.
