Although we usually think that a manicure = colourful nails, it\u2019s not always the case. Depending on your personal taste and the type of manicure you choose, you can either finish the treatment by having your nails painted, or simply have them trimmed and shaped.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"basic-manicure\"><\/span>Basic manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Don\u2019t let the name fool you &#8211; a <b>basic manicure <\/b>is nothing short of exciting! The term \u201cbasic\u201d refers to the fact that it is a standard version of the procedure, consisting of its most essential parts. It\u2019s the most <b>natural manicure<\/b> if you decide to keep things simple, but of course, nothing stops you from asking for a colourful polish as well. With a basic manicure, you are usually up for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Trimming, buffing &amp; shaping the nails<\/li>\n<li>Managing the cuticles<\/li>\n<li>Moisturizing hand cream\/mask<\/li>\n<li>Nourishing cuticle oil<\/li>\n<li>A basic application of a traditional nail polish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With a basic manicure, you can usually choose a singular nail colour, a transparent nail conditioner or a very simple design (eg. french or <a href=\"https:\/\/booksy.com\/blog\/gb\/reverse-french-manicure\/\">reverse french<\/a>). If you visit a <b>spa for your manicure<\/b>, you can probably count on an additional hand massage for even more relaxation!<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-pros-of-a-basic-manicure\"><\/span>The pros of a basic manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>You can get it done relatively quickly<\/li>\n<li>It\u2019s less expensive than gels, acrylics or shellacs<\/li>\n<li>It does not have any negative impact on your nails<\/li>\n<li>You can easily remove the nail polish at home once it starts looking worse for wear and\/or you get tired of it<\/li>\n<li>You can achieve <b>nice, natural-looking nails<\/b> by either asking for a nude polish or transparent conditioner<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-cons-of-a-basic-manicure\"><\/span>The cons of a basic manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It\u2019s not as long-lasting as gels, acrylics or shellacs &#8211; you may need to remove it after a week or so<\/li>\n<li>It requires some patience in the drying process (as opposed to the techniques where the formula is set by the UV lights)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"gel-manicure\"><\/span>Gel manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Gels are arguably the most popular types of manicures.

Furthermore, <b>gel nails look very natural, <\/b>so are great even for those of us who are not fans of bold colours. For example, <b>gel french manicures <\/b>really spiked in popularity recently!<\/p>\n<p>If you book a <b>gel nail manicure<\/b>, apart from the traditional elements such as trimming, buffing &amp; shaping, managing cuticles and nourishing the plates, you will be asked to choose a nail colour or design and then have your nails painted. The nail tech will not use a regular polish, but a special <b>gel polish for your manicure<\/b>, which will then harden thanks to a UV\/LED curing lamp.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-pros-of-a-gel-manicure\"><\/span>The pros of a gel manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It will stay with you for longer &#8211; gel nails are sturdy and long-lasting, and you can have a set of gels even for 2-3 weeks.<\/li>\n<li>You can opt for <b>gel nails that are natural <\/b>or colourful and complicated in design &#8211; the technique supports all styles<\/li>\n<li>Gels can also extend your natural nails, for example, if you want to try longer nails but lack patience for growing them, and are arguably the most natural-looking <b>types of nail extensions.<\/b><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-cons-of-a-gel-manicure\"><\/span>The cons of a gel manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It\u2019s much more pricey than a basic one<\/li>\n<li>Removing gel nails requires another visit to the salon, as it\u2019s difficult (and risky) to do at home<\/li>\n<li>Having gels done too often may cause some issues with your nail plate and if you have very thin, brittle and dry nails to begin with, may not be a good idea overall<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"acrylic-manicure\"><\/span>Acrylic manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/booksy.com\/blog\/gb\/what-are-acrylic-nails\/\">Acrylics<\/a> are known to be the most rigid and hard nails, which come with advantages and disadvantages. Many appreciate them for their unparalleled strength and durability, others are not big fans of how artificial they look. Acrylics are made of a mix of powder and liquid monomer, that is then shaped onto your nail plate and air dried. Unlike gels, they do not require a special UV\/LED lamp to harden. <b>Acrylics are basically nail extensions<\/b>, so they are perfect for more elaborate designs.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-pros-of-an-acrylic-manicure\"><\/span>The pros of an acrylic manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It\u2019s incredibly long-lasting &#8211; acrylic nails can last as long as 4 weeks<\/li>\n<li>It allows you to change the length and shape of your nails, making them a perfect choice for those of us who love a more dramatic look<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"the-cons-of-an-acrylic-manicure\"><\/span>The cons of an acrylic manicure<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>It is more pricey than a standard manicure<\/li>\n<li>It takes more time to get it done<\/li>\n<li>Having it done too often may cause the weakening of the nail plate<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Basic acrylic nails<\/b> look very much like nail extensions.
