Gel-X and Après Manicures in Brickell
Gel-X (Après) is the extension we book when someone wants length without the weight of a thick acrylic set. If you have been searching for a nail salon near me in Brickell that actually carries the full size run, this is the menu.
What Gel-X is
A soft gel tip is selected for each nail, adhered, and cured under a lamp. Then we shape and finish with color. It is not a sticker. It is not dip. It is an extension you can file and fill.
On our artificial nails menu: Extra Short / Short, Medium, Large, Extra Large, Extra Extra Large, plus Après on toes.
Acrylic vs Gel-X
Pick Gel-X if you want a lighter nail, a quicker set, or a natural short-to-medium length you can type in.
Pick acrylic if you want extra length, a sharp stiletto, or you have broken softer sets. We also do hard gel and polygel if you want something in between. See acrylic nails in Brickell for fills and full sets.
How long it lasts in Miami
Two to three weeks with a fill. Humidity and beach days are easier on Gel-X than on regular polish, but you still need cuticle oil and you should not pick the free edge. If a corner lifts, come in for a repair instead of peeling it.
