The Art of Nail Extensions
Getting long-lasting, beautiful nails is about finding the right shape and a durable finish that fits your lifestyle. Whether you want a clean, minimalist look or something bold for a special occasion, I am here to help you get those perfect nails at my studio in Dadar.
This video gives you a behind-the-scenes look at my nail extension process. It covers everything from filing and shaping to applying the tips, and finally curing the polish with a UV lamp to ensure a long-lasting, perfect finish. The final design features a custom smoky accent nail.
About The Art of Nail Extensions
I don't just stick on nails and call it a day. Before any extension, I perform a thorough dry manicure to prep your cuticles and buff the nail bed. This step is non-negotiable because it ensures the ABS plastic tips and builder gel actually adhere, meaning your new set won't lift or pop off after just a few days.
Choosing Your Perfect Look
When you come to my studio in Dadar West, we don't just pick a color. We look at your hand structure and your daily lifestyle. If you are a working professional, I often recommend an almond or square-round shape as it is practical yet elegant. If you are prepping for a wedding or event, let's go for that trendy coffin shape with some intricate detail.
The Process
My nail extensions use high-quality ABS plastic tips secured with builder gel. This creates a sturdy, natural-feeling extension that lasts.
- Prep: Dry manicure with cuticle work to ensure long-term adhesion.
- Shaping: Custom filing to match your finger shape.
- Finish: UV-cured gel polish that stays glossy for weeks.
Maintenance Tips
Keep in mind that while extensions are durable, they are not indestructible. Avoid using your nails as tools to open soda cans or packages. Use cuticle oil daily, as it keeps the skin around your nails hydrated and makes the whole set look fresh for much longer.
Whether you need a simple solid color or full-on bridal bling with rhinestones, we will design something that feels like you.
