Acrylic nails are made from a mixture of liquid monomer and powder polymer, forming a hard protective layer over your natural nails. Gel nails are created using a gel polish that is cured under a UV or LED lamp, offering a more flexible and natural-looking finish.

A standard manicure or pedicure takes about 30 to 45 minutes. More intricate services like nail art or extensions may take longer.
7. What is dip powder, and how does it differ from gel or acrylic nails?
Dip powder involves dipping the nails into colored powder and sealing it with a clear protective polish. It's known for its durability and less damaging application process compared to acrylics and gels.
