Gel Nails & Manicures in Lansdowne, Cape Town

A gel manicure usually lasts 2–3 weeks when the nail is prepped well and you look after it — gloves for cleaning, cuticle oil daily and no picking. Gel on toes often lasts 3–4 weeks because toenails grow more slowly.

Rubber base is a thick, flexible gel base that strengthens thin or bendy natural nails. A gel overlay adds a protective layer over your natural nail. Polygel is a putty-like hybrid of gel and acrylic that's light but strong, good for adding length. Acrylic is the hardest and most durable option, best for long or dramatic sets. We'll recommend the right one for your nails.

Damage usually comes from picking or peeling product off, or from harsh removal — not the product itself. That's why we recommend a proper soak-off (R100) rather than pulling off an old set.

Every 2–3 weeks. A fill with gel reapplication is R250 and keeps your set strong and neat as your nails grow.
