Acrylic extension

GelX extensions are applied by gluing a soft gel tip to your natural nail using Nail Order’s Extra Sensitive Gel Glue, designed for minimal irritation and maximum hold.

This service includes one gel polish colour of your choice. GelX extensions are just as strong and durable as acrylic but feel thinner, lighter, and more natural—perfect if you want extravagant nail art without the bulk.

Ideal for those seeking flexibility and comfort with a flawless finish.

Available lengths:

Short (almond only)

Medium (all shapes)

Long (coffin & stiletto)


Available shapes: square, almond, stiletto, coffin.

If you want gel extensions, GelX is the best choice for strength, natural feel, and style versatility.

GelX Extensions

Gel/Acrylic Removal – Soak Off
Old gel polish or acrylic is gently removed using acetone and a warm bowl to speed up the process. Any residue is carefully filed off, and nourishing cuticle oil is applied to finish. This method is gentle and does not damage the natural nail when done professionally.

🔹 Please book this service if you are not arriving with bare nails.
🔹 If you're booking an infill, you do not need to add this service.
🔹If you'd like a manicure after please book as a separate service.

Hard Gel Repair – Add-on or stand-alone service
Ideal for broken, chipped, or weak nails.

Hard gel is applied over your natural nail using sculpting forms to create an extension without a plastic tip. This method offers a natural look and lightweight feel while allowing your nail to grow out safely.

If your nail is splitting across or down the sides, a silk nail wrap is first applied for reinforcement, followed by hard gel to strengthen and protect the area.

Perfect for one-time repairs or to help support nails prone to breakage.
