Manicure FAQs
Nail technicians tend to start a manicure with a warm water hand soak, which soften the skin and nails. They then file, buff, and clean the cuticle, massage your hands with a moisturising cream, and apply a base coat of polish, before finishing with a layer of colour, top coat, and cuticle oil. Standard nail polish is left to dry naturally; shellac and gel polishes are cured under a UV lamp; acrylic nails cure in the natural air.
It greatly depends on the type of manicure you go for. Some nail technicians suggest having a manicure once a week, however Shellac, dip powder, acrylic, and gel manicures can last a lot longer. You can leave 2-3 weeks before getting your gel or Shellac manicures filled or redone; wait 3-6 weeks between dip powder manicures; and leave 6-8 weeks before having your acrylic nail manicure redone. If in doubt, ask your technician.
Yes. Some types of manicures do carry risks. Cuticles could be infected if they are cut, and you could suffer with dry, weak, or brittle nails if your polish isn’t correctly removed. Ask your nail technician to talk you through the risks before you book your appointment.
It depends on the type of manicure you choose, but the average price of a manicure in Santiago is CLP 14,900.
It depends on the type of manicure you get. You should allow around 30 minutes for a basic manicure that uses standard nail polish; shellac and gel nail manicures take up to 45 minutes; and acrylic nail manicures take around 90 minutes.
Yes, absolutely. In fact, it’s common, particularly for those using regular nail polish or gel. If you’d like to give it a try, there are various different kits and pieces of equipment available to buy, but we always recommend having a manicure done by a professional to ensure you get the results you want.
Many nail technicians recommend once-weekly manicures to ensure your nails always look good and that your nail polish remains chip-free. However, you can get away with having manicures less often – ask your technician for their specific advice as the frequency can vary according to the nail polish used.
