Around 3 weeks after your initial PlexiGel application, you will be ready for a rebalance. 

A rebalance restores the balance, structure and look of the whole nail. When a nail structure grows out it loses balance, and the apex moves forward. At a rebalance appointment: 

✔️ The nail length is reassessed and taken back to the desired length.

✔️ Product is filed down and blended in ready for reapplication of PlexiGel. 

✔️ PREP is carried out, which removes any non-living tissue on the nail plate. 

✔️ A new, fresh coating of PlexiGel is applied. 

✔️ Nails are re-shaped. 

✔️ Finish off with with a clear top coat or with your favorite colour.

A traditional French manicure, defined by the white polish across the nail’s tip, is a look that is timeless and chic. 

Using award winning CND white and pink acrylic products to apply over your natural nails to add strength and protect your nails.

French Overlay 

Similar to a french manicure, french ombré manicures are also made of neutral shades of pink, white and nude. But as opposed to the traditional line on demarcation followed by a bold, white tip, a french ombré has a natural fade element instead. The end result? A gorgeous, feminine, and modern twist on a true classic.

Using award winning CND acrylic products over your natural nails to create this look. 

French Ombré Overlay 

A rebalance restores the balance and structure of the nail by repairing any cracks, chips, and breaks, reducing the length back to what it was, replacing the apex back to where it should be and of course replacing the product in the grown out area. This brings the nail back to as good as they were when they were first applied and also removes the need to have to soak off. 

Clients are required to come back every 2-3 weeks for a rebalance. 

*If you’re wanting nail art, glitter, chrome
or French then don’t forget to add it on to your appointment! (See options for this)
