Frequently asked questions
What is acrylic?
Acrylic is a resin made of powder and liquid that is applied to nails to make them stronger and supports extended length with an opaque finish.
Can acrylic be applied without extensions?
Yes. Acrylic can be applied directly to natural nails as an overlay for extra support, without extending the nail length.
