Full Set is a comprehensive nail enhancement service in which artificial materials, such as acrylic, gel, or acrygel, are applied to add length, strength, and structure to natural nails. This service is ideal for clients looking to extend the length of their nails, create a specific shape, or achieve a uniform look. Here’s what a Full Set typically includes:
1. Nail Preparation: Natural nails are cleaned, shaped, and lightly buffed to create an optimal base for adhesion.
2. Tip Application or Form Placement: Depending on the desired length and type of enhancement, either nail tips are applied or nail forms are placed under the natural nails to act as a guide for sculpting.
3. Application of Enhancement Material: The chosen material (acrygel) is applied either over the tips or directly sculpted on the forms. This layer is molded and shaped to achieve the desired length and structure.
4. Curing/Setting: With acrygel, each layer is cured under a UV or LED light.
5. Shaping & Smoothing: Once hardened, the extensions are filed, shaped, and buffed to achieve a smooth, even finish, ensuring a customized look (e.g., square, almond, coffin).
6. Polish or Gel Finish: A color polish, gel polish, or clear top coat is applied, giving the nails a glossy or matte, professional finish.
7. Moisturizing Treatment: Cuticle oil and hand lotion are applied to hydrate the skin, leaving hands soft and nourished.
A Full Set typically lasts 3-4 weeks before a maintenance fill is needed, providing long-lasting and resilient nails that can withstand everyday activities while maintaining a polished, manicured appearance.
