Soft gel tips are the newer option between a plain overlay and a full acrylic set. A pre-shaped gel tip is bonded to the natural nail and cured, which gives you instant length without the filing and building that acrylic requires.
They are noticeably lighter to wear and the appointment is shorter, which makes them a good first extension if you have never had length before, or a good choice when you want a set for a specific event rather than an ongoing commitment.
Less bulk than acrylic, so they feel closer to your natural nail from the first day.
Faster than building a full acrylic set, which suits a lunch-hour or evening booking.
The tip is pre-formed, so the shape across all ten nails is consistent.
Soaks off more readily than acrylic, which is gentler on the natural nail underneath.
