Gel manicures are a popular choice for people who want long-lasting, durable nail polish that stays chip-free for weeks.So, how often should you update your gel manicure? Let's find out.🤓
Firstly, it's important to note that gel manicures typically last longer than traditional nail polish, up to 3-4 weeks of chip-free wear. However, this can vary depending on a number of factors, such as your nail type, the quality of the gel polish, and your daily activities.
One key factor to consider when deciding how often to update your gel manicure is the growth of your nails. As your nails grow, the gap between the base of your nail and the gel polish will become more noticeable. This can start to look unsightly after a week or two, depending on how fast your nails grow. So, if you want to keep your gel manicure looking fresh, it's recommended to get a fill-in every 3 weeks.💅
A fill-in involves filing down the existing gel polish to remove any lifting or peeling, and then applying a fresh layer of gel polish to the nail. This helps to smooth out any bumps and ridges that may have formed, and gives your nails a fresh, polished look.😉
In addition to fill-ins, it's also important to take good care of your gel manicure in between appointments. This includes avoiding harsh chemicals, using gloves when doing household chores, and applying cuticle oil regularly to keep your nails and cuticles moisturized.
