What is an acrylic set?

Acrylic is made by combining a liquid and a powder into a bead that is sculpted directly onto the nail. It can be applied over your natural nails or over extensions for added length, and it hardens in the air without a lamp.

Once set, each nail is filed into shape and finished with color or nail art.

Who it is best for

  • Maximum strength and durability
  • Longer lengths and bold shapes
  • Clients who are hard on their hands
  • A sturdy base for detailed nail art

What to expect at your appointment

A full set starts with nail and cuticle prep, then the acrylic is applied and sculpted nail by nail, filed and shaped, and finished with color or nail art. As your nails grow, a fill covers the new growth and rebalances the nail. Every appointment is one-on-one with Rachel in a private suite.

Aftercare tips

  • Apply cuticle oil daily to keep the nail and surrounding skin flexible.
  • Wear gloves for cleaning and washing dishes.
  • Use your fingertips, not your nails, to open cans or scrape things.
  • Never pick, peel or pry your nails off. Book a fill or a removal instead.

Common questions

What is the difference between a full set and a fill?

A full set is a new application on all ten nails. A fill covers the new growth near the cuticle and rebalances the nail so the set keeps its shape.

Do acrylic nails damage natural nails?

Applied and removed properly, acrylics are made to be worn safely. Most damage comes from picking or prying them off, so always have them removed professionally.

Can I get nail art on acrylic nails?

Yes. Acrylic is a great base for detailed designs, and custom nail art is a specialty.
