What's Included

A precise, tidy service that strengthens natural nails without extensions.

  • Consultation to confirm French or colour and your ideal shape.
  • Cleanse, file and gentle cuticle care.
  • Careful prep for secure adhesion and a smooth base.
  • Strengthening gel overlay applied to natural nails.
  • Precise French detailing or even, opaque colour.

Who It's For

Perfect if you like your nails short to medium, neat and elegant, with a finish that stays smart for work, travel and evenings out. Choose French for a timeless look that goes with everything or colour for a crisp, modern polish.

A good choice if your nails are soft or peel and you want extra strength without added length. Ideal for anyone who prefers low-fuss maintenance and predictable results.

Duration & Appointment Timing

Your appointment includes a short consultation, precise shaping and careful application for a smooth, long-wearing finish. French detailing may take a little longer for perfect smile lines.

If you have existing gel or overlays, let us know when booking so we can allow safe removal time. Most clients rebook every three to four weeks to keep the result fresh and protect nail health.

Aftercare & Maintenance

Treat your nails with care for the best wear. Use cuticle oil daily, moisturise hands and wear gloves for cleaning or gardening. Avoid using your nails as tools and do not pick at the overlay.

If a corner lifts, file it gently in one direction and book a repair. Arrange professional removal or maintenance at three to four weeks to refresh the finish and support healthy natural nails.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a gel overlay and how is it different from extensions?
A gel overlay adds a protective layer to your natural nails without adding length. It reinforces weak edges, smooths ridges and leaves a glossy, even surface. It feels natural and looks refined.
Should I choose French or colour?
French gives a clean, timeless look that complements any outfit. Colour offers everything from soft neutrals to rich tones for a bolder finish. We can help you choose a shade that flatters your skin tone and style.
How long will gel overlays last?
With normal wear, most clients enjoy around two to three weeks of chip-resistant shine. Natural growth becomes visible after that, so many rebook at three to four weeks. Your lifestyle and nail type can affect wear.
Will overlays damage my nails?
Not when they are applied and removed correctly. We prep gently, avoid over-filing and use safe removal to protect the natural nail. Avoid picking or peeling the product to prevent damage.
Can I have overlays on short or weak nails?
Yes, overlays are ideal for short or fragile nails. They add structure to reduce peeling and splitting, while keeping the length practical. We shape to flatter your hands and suit daily life.
