Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to common questions about Hard Builder Gel Fill.

Appointments typically take 45 to 75 minutes depending on nail growth, thickness, and desired finish. Time includes prep, careful filling, shaping, and curing to ensure strength and a seamless surface.

When performed by trained technicians, fills should not damage natural nails. We use careful filing and bonding techniques to preserve nail health; avoid picking and bring concerns to your technician.

We generally recommend scheduling fills every two to three weeks to maintain strength and appearance. Frequency can vary with growth rate, lifestyle, and the technician's assessment during appointment.

Minor shaping and subtle length adjustments are possible during a fill. Significant length changes or structural alterations usually require a full reapplication so the set maintains optimal balance and strength.

Aftercare for fills mirrors new sets: moisturize cuticles, avoid harsh chemicals, and wear gloves for chores. Regular fills and gentle handling prolong the life and integrity of your builder gel set.

If your fill chips or lifts, contact us promptly. We offer repairs within a specified timeframe; issues outside that window may incur a charge. Avoid picking and bring your nails in for assessment.
