Acrylic nails are nail enhancements made by combining a liquid (monomer) and a powder (polymer). Using a sable brush, together, they form a soft bead that can be made into a nail shape. Once applied, the material hardens and becomes much stronger. It can then be filed and buffed into the desired shape and length.
If short nails are desired, a simple coat of acrylic can be applied to the natural nail. If a length is desired, an artificial tip is applied to the natural nail with adhesive. The tip is then cut to the length requested.

Fills are recommended every two-three weeks to keep the nails looking their best. Any lifting, chipping or loss of an acrylic nail is replaced and/or repaired and each nail is completely rebalanced.

Natural pink acrylic powder is used to fill in the gap, at the cuticle, where the acrylic enhancement has grown out.

White acrylic powder is applied at the tip of the nail creating the effect of a natural nail or French tip. Then natural pink acrylic powder is used to fill in the gap at the cuticle, where the acrylic enhancement has grown out. Pink powder is also evenly applied over the white tip to blend & soften the two colors. This creates a very natural looking nail.

Pink fill service is performed as above. Then gel color is applied and is cured by intervals of 30 seconds with an LED light. Nails are completely dry by the end of the manicure. This manicure will last two-three weeks.

It is a well-known fact that naturally grown fingernails are not durable enough to withstand the rigors of plucking the steel strings of an acoustic guitar for hours on end. The thickness and shape of the nails used to pluck the strings are a critically important contributor to achieving beautiful tone when playing fingerstyle guitar.
