UV gel nails are the breakthrough system for nail techs & clients alike. Nail techs once had to spend 2 hours to do a full set of nails for clients(meaning they had to prep the nails then put tips on then prep some more then use acrylics & monomers, kind of like the system where dentists use that smelly stuff when doing a fill in your tooth!) which took too much time & also caused too much of a hassle. With UV Gels, they could do less work spend less time on prepping, look more natural, cure them in a UV light & could be put on anything, from short bitten nails using forms to build a nail tip or by attaching an extension to the nail bed then applying a thin coat of UV gel to smooth out the surface for a more natural sheik look! Either way they are thinner, safer & take less time to do...so both the nail tech & client have an easier time. No awkward smells, less prep time & all are happy.
They are somewhat like fake nails, but the nail is applied to your natural nails to make them stronger ,and look longer and smoother ... the "UV" part is because they use UV lighting to set the nails.
From what I understand theyare just fake nails, but r better on ur regular nails as opposed to acrylics
They are fake nails that UV lights help dry the gel in way that it looks shiny.
great answer...:)
