Gel/Shellac Add On | Le Bijou Nails and Spa Salon

Q: How long will the Gel/Shellac Add On last on my nails?

A Gel/Shellac Add On usually lasts two to three weeks before natural growth or wear becomes noticeable. Longevity depends on nail health, daily activities, and correct application. Proper aftercare and professional removal help maximize wear.

Q: Can I get the Gel/Shellac Add On over nail extensions?

Yes — we can apply Gel/Shellac over many nail extensions, including acrylic or hard gels, but compatibility and adhesion vary. Your technician will assess extension type and advise adjustments or alternatives for the best, longest-lasting finish.

Q: Will the Gel/Shellac Add On damage my natural nails over time?

When applied and removed by professionals, Gel/Shellac is gentle on natural nails. Damage usually occurs from improper removal or aggressive filing. We recommend soak-off removal, minimal filing, and regular cuticle and oil treatments to maintain nail health.

Q: Typically how long does the Gel/Shellac Add On service take?

Adding Gel/Shellac typically extends a standard manicure by 15–30 minutes. Full service time depends on nail prep, cuticle work, and polish changes; expect roughly 45–60 minutes for a complete manicure upgraded with Gel/Shellac.

Q: Can I change polish color with Gel/Shellac Add On removal?

Absolutely — you can remove Gel/Shellac and select a new color during your next visit. Professionals soak off the polish safely, allowing you to choose a fresh shade or reapply Gel/Shellac without harming the nail bed.

Q: How should I care for my nails after Gel/Shellac Add On?

Care includes applying cuticle oil daily, wearing gloves for cleaning tasks, avoiding picking or peeling polish, and using gentle hand products. Book touch-ups every two to three weeks to maintain strong, glossy results and prevent lifting.

** Under New Ownership** Nails and toes done by Isaac and the experience was top notch! Not only did he keep me entertained throughout the services he explained the services and made some suggestions for changes in the future. Not once did he knick the skin around my cuticles, make me bleed or burn me with the drill head (yes, I have had some experiences). I did a simple French tip on acrylics ( he can do a lot of other designs too) and their 3rd level pedicure (can’t remember what it is called) and paid $146 (after the 1st time customer 10% discount). The salon was clean. They are adding new services (hairstylists!) as well. The front desk was friendly and the atmosphere was so calming. NEVER have I felt so welcome in a nail salon and I am a 25 year nail vet! Keep up the good work and making customer satisfaction the 1st priority and I will be back!...more

PROS: The location is convenient. They offer nice amenities like drinks and massage chairs. It’s really pretty inside. They also have a hair stylist and lash extensions.

CONS!: The pricing is a bit much. It needs to be more clear and not discussed in front of customers if there is any question about how much items should cost.

I asked for a Russian pedicure which is done completely dry but I wanted it with basic pedicure services added ( wet scrub, lotion and callus remover).

My service was terrible because I was there over 3 hours but decided not to finish. I don’t think I’ve ever had a pedicure take that long. I paid $80 total. I only got my nails detailed filed and gel polish with chrome. It looks ok but not great and I didn’t get my heels filed or any callus work due to the timing. I probably have 7 coats of polish on my toes. 💅🏽 it’s crazy.

I would probably give this place another chance due to the new ownership but I left sad, disappointed and tired quite frankly. An appointment might be better. 1 star because I still need a pedicure after being there 3 hours 🥴....more

Love this place! Isaac is fast, methodical and precise with the nails and made my appointment so fun. I’m usually feeling like I’m in the salon forever but between him moving like a well-oiled machine and the laughs I felt like I was there for fifteen minutes. The aesthetic is also adorable and it truly is a one-stop shop. Brows were also perfect and my tint lasted much longer than usual. Great location, amazing service; I have no notes🤗...more

Beautiful nails, people, and atmosphere, absolutely loved my first time here! If I had to go back, I'd definitely go with Issac. Hes incredibly skilled, fast, and very kind hearted, definitely all the great things needed for a nail tech. Highly recommend him, and I'll definitely be back! French tips are easy to mess up but he has them down perfectly! 100/10 recommend...more
