Removal + Repair The right way out of a bad set. No drilling, no panic.

Ultra-macro of a single thumb with a sheer pink gel glossy topcoat showing cuticle texture detail.

Removals are a real service, not a free add-on. We soak gel for 15 minutes, BIAB for 20, extensions for 25, long enough that we’re not drilling through your natural nail to speed it up. After removal we shape, refine cuticles, and apply a strengthening base or clear gel so you walk out with finished hands, not scratched ones. Single-nail repairs (one cracked tip, one lifted side) are flat-priced; we’ll do them quickly and you’re back in your day.

Best for

Anyone with old gel from another studio, lifted extensions, or a single broken nail before an event.
