Gel Nails in Singapore

Gel nails in Singapore usually cost around S$40 to S$80 for a gel manicure on natural nails, with nail art, extensions, or intricate designs adding to the price. Removal or soak-off is sometimes charged separately, often S$10 to S$20. Cost depends on the salon and the complexity of the design.

Gel nails in Singapore typically last two to three weeks without chipping, which is much longer than regular polish. As your nails grow, a gap appears at the base, which is usually when people return for a fresh set. Proper removal is important to avoid weakening the natural nail.

Gel nails are generally safe when applied and removed correctly, but peeling or filing them off yourself can damage the natural nail. Always have gel professionally soaked off, and giving nails an occasional break with a nourishing treatment helps keep them strong. A good salon will prioritise nail health during removal.

Gel nails apply cured gel polish over your natural nails for colour and shine, while nail extensions add length and structure using acrylic, builder gel, or tips. Gel is about long-lasting colour, whereas extensions change the shape and length of your nails. You can also have gel polish applied on top of extensions.
