“How often should I come in?” It's one of my favorite questions, because the honest answer is about your life, not a rigid rule. I'm Angely, and let me help you find a rhythm that keeps your nails happy without taking over your calendar.
If you wear gel
Gel manicures look flawless for two to three weeks, but your natural nail keeps growing underneath. Around the two-to-three-week mark, you'll notice a gap at the base. That's the ideal time to come in for a fresh set or a fill — right before you're tempted to pick at it.
If you wear regular polish
Regular polish chips sooner, so many clients refresh weekly or every ten days. The lovely thing is you can change colors as often as your mood does.
If you keep your nails bare
Even without polish, a monthly manicure keeps your cuticles healthy, your shape clean, and your nails conditioned. Think of it as maintenance for your hands, the way a trim maintains your hair.
Listen to your nails
- Lifting or chipping gel → time for removal and a fresh set.
- Ragged cuticles or hangnails → time for some professional TLC.
- Snagging tips → time for a shape and file.
For most people, every two to three weeks is the sweet spot. But the best schedule is the one you'll actually keep. Whenever you're due, you can book with us in a minute — we'll keep your hands looking effortless.
