A gel manicure is one of the easiest ways to have nails that look done for longer. Here is what to expect at Luxe Nails Salon in Newbury Park, what it costs and how to make it last.

Price and time

  • Gel Manicure: $40, about 30 minutes.
  • Regular Manicure (nail shaping, cuticle care and regular polish): $20, about 30 minutes.
  • Gel Polish Change (hands): $35.
  • Gel Removal: $10.

Gel or regular manicure?

Gel polish is cured under a lamp, so it is dry when you leave: no smudges on the way to the car. It usually keeps its shine and resists chips longer than regular polish, which makes it a favorite for busy weeks, trips and special occasions. A regular manicure is a great choice if you like to change colors often or want the lower price.

Make it yours

  • French Nail Design: $10.
  • Nail art and rhinestones: the price depends on the design.
  • Fall favorites: deep reds, burgundy and soft neutrals are classic picks for this time of year.

Want stronger nails, not just color?

If your nails bend or break easily, ask about Natural Nail Bio Gel ($55, about 60 minutes), a strengthening layer over your natural nails.

Tips to make your gel manicure last

  • Use cuticle oil every day or two.
  • Wear gloves for cleaning and washing dishes.
  • Don't use your nails as tools to open cans or peel labels.
  • Don't peel off the gel when it starts to grow out: book a Gel Removal or a Gel Polish Change so your natural nails stay healthy.
