Nail Extensions vs Structure Gel

Structure Gel strengthens your existing natural nails.

Nail Extensions add both length and structure.

If you already have enough natural length, Structure Gel may be all you need.

If you’re looking to create additional length, Nail Extensions are the ideal choice.

Long-Term Maintenance

After your initial extension appointment, most future visits can be scheduled as Structure Gel fill appointments.

During these maintenance services, we rebalance the structure, refresh the design, and maintain your length as your natural nails continue to grow.
