I think the UV Gel doesn't damage your real nails underneath, so when you take the tips off, your natural nails are strong. I THINK....

Thanks for the 'tip!'

Re: Is $70 a normal price for UV Gel French Manicure Tips?

I have acrylic permanent french that looks exactly the same and is cheaper. I get mine done every 3-4 weeks. It's $60 for a full set, then $23 to fill the pink and $30 to fill the white & pink (every other time you do the opposite)

Re: Is $70 a normal price for UV Gel French Manicure Tips?

That seems about right...I don't get the gel, but I get something similar and mine is like $60 for a new set, and $21 for fill-in, but $30 when they re-do the white for my permanent french.

Re: Is $70 a normal price for UV Gel French Manicure Tips?

also you really should go every 2 weeks to keep them properly maintained. if you let 3 weeks go by, sometimes they have to replace your tips sooner. also, more likely for a nail to come loose and get an infection

ive been getting my nails done for a very long time!!

I think mine was about $60 for the full set and then $20 for fill ins.
Thats why I took them off after the wedding, too much maintenence - to expensive.

Re: Is $70 a normal price for UV Gel French Manicure Tips?

I paid $50 initially for me (included my own kit for sanitation) and now I pay $30 every 3-4 weeks depending on my schedule of when I can make it in.

I know... I hate going this long before the wedding, but I want to have them done for my shower, bach party, etc. Then, after the honeymoon, THEY'RE OFF!!!

Re: Is $70 a normal price for UV Gel French Manicure Tips?

Is this the same thing as the New York Permanent French? I think it is. They charge $90 at my place and keep trying to talk me into it for the wedding, the bank is closed I say!!!

Re: Is $70 a normal price for UV Gel French Manicure Tips?

Sorry to but in. It is a lot of money but it really works. I need to find a place fast and found one and talked me into the UV gel (I got the regular one) and every two weeks 35.00. It good for those that have week nails and are damaged and are always breaking. I have for 3years gotten wraps and thougth that was the best. Wrong with this new things my nails feel stronger and last so much more than before. It is true that this is a expense but it is worth it if you have the problems above.
