Yes — you can choose shape, length, and style during your consultation. Technicians assess nail health and recommend options that balance durability and aesthetics, ensuring the chosen look suits your lifestyle and natural nail strength.

Maintain your set by applying cuticle oil daily, wearing gloves for cleaning, avoiding harsh chemicals, and using gentle care. Schedule fills every two to three weeks and never pick or peel acrylics to prevent lifting and damage.
