WELCOME TO
IT’S BEAUTY SALON
It’s Beauty Salon offers manicures that actually fit your hand, your style, and your budget. Our nail technicians are trained to deliver precision: from subtle overlays to full acrylic extensions. No shortcuts.
At It’s Beauty Salon, we use premium materials, such as Luxio and MAL for gel nails, and Kinetics for both gel and classic polish. We don’t set unrealistic expectations. A full nail extension typically takes around 1 hour 30 minutes – standard timing for a professional.
Nail Extensions Near Me For Any Occasion
Nail extensions can restore length and shape, or just make your nails look healthier than ever.
Depending on your goal, you can choose short almond tips for a natural, low-maintenance look, or long stiletto extensions for a bold, sculptural effect. Either way, you’ll leave with natural nails that last. Either way, you’ll leave with natural nails that last.
Our extensions come in various shapes and lengths, from subtle almond to sharp stiletto. The polish? Fully cured gel for a glossy finish, or matte if you’re into the soft look. At It’s Beauty Salon, we use odor-free, high-quality materials that hold their shape and color.
Nail Extension: Different Types Explained
Not all nail artificial enhancements are made the same. The best nail extensions depend on your nail condition, lifestyle, and how natural or bold you want the final result to look. Below, you’ll see the most common types we offer at It’s Beauty Salon.
Acrylic Nail Extensions
Acrylic nail extensions are made by combining liquid monomer and powder polymer – creating a solid overlay that air dries. Acrylics are durable, structured, and ideal for longer lengths or those who tend to be tough on their nails.
Great for defined shapes and long wear.
Gel Nail Extensions
Gel nail extensions feel more flexible than acrylics and can be built using hard gel or builder gel. Cured under UV or LED light, they’re known for a more natural appearance and better comfort during wear.
Best for a lightweight feel and smoother grow-out.
Polygel Nail Extension
Polygel is a hybrid of acrylic and gel – thicker than builder gel, softer than acrylics. It’s odor free and only hardens when cured under a lamp, allowing technicians to sculpt without time pressure.
Good for flexibility, strength, and a more natural look.
Hard Gel Extensions
Hard gel extensions are all about a strong, flexible finish that mimics the feel of natural nails. Unlike acrylics, they cure under a lamp and don’t harden in the air, thus, giving your technician more control in shaping. They’re great for achieving desired length without bulk, and hold up well under day-to-day wear.
Looking forward to having durable natural nails? Don’t like the thickness or feel of acrylics? Then go for hard gel! The finish is lighter, often glossier, and the grow-out is smoother.
Acrylic Nails vs Gel Nail Extensions: Which Is Better?
If you're deciding between acrylic nail extensions and gel nail extensions, the right choice depends on what you want from your manicure. Some women go for structure and bold shapes, others are more into comfort and a more natural appearance. Here's how they compare:
Feature
Acrylic Nails
Gel Nails
Strength
Durable, better for long shapes and heavy use
Flexible, good for everyday wear
Flexibility
Rigid, you’ll feel the structure
Moves with the nail, more natural feel
Design
Structured base, great for 3D nail art
Smooth canvas for gradients and intricate designs
Removal
Filed off, longer removal process
Can be soaked off, gentler on natural nails
You can switch or mix types. We’ll tell you what suits your nail condition and desired look.
How to Choose the Right Nail Extension Type for You
There’s no perfect option – just what fits your nails and lifestyle.
If your nails are weak, soft gel or builder gel is generally safe. Flexible, lightweight, and less likely to cause damage.
If you’re tough on your hands, go for acrylic or polygel. Acrylic’s solid and time-tested. Polygel’s lighter, easier to file, and doesn’t smell like chemicals.
Just look through, to find out more about best nail extensions:
Soft Gel – Thin, natural-looking, flexible. Needs regular fills.
Builder Gel (BIAB) – Strengthens short or growing nails. Smoother than acrylic.
Polygel – Hybrid feel. Strong but easier to shape.
Press-ons – Cheap, fast, temporary. Good for short stints, not long-term wear.
Not sure? Let one of our techs take a quick look. They’ll size up your nails and tell you straight what’ll hold up.
Builder Gel and Hard Gel: What's the Difference?
People mix these up all the time, and to be fair, they’re closely related. Builder gel is a type of hard gel. But they behave a little differently once you start working with them. The main differences come down to texture, control, and what kind of nail you’re trying to build.

Removal

At It’s Beauty Salon, we use both — it depends on how long your nails are now, and how far you want to go.
Nail Art Options for Every Nail Extension Type
Nail art can be as subtle or bold as you like. Gel nails allow for thin brush detailing and clean ombré blends. Acrylics hold rhinestones and 3D shapes better. Polygel gives a strong base for modern styles without weight.
Ask for nail art when booking – or decide in the chair. We keep a diverse range of designs on hand.
How Long Do Acrylic and Gel Extensions Last?
Don’t know how long acrylic and gel nail extensions actually last. With proper maintenance, you can expect the following wear time:
Extension Type
Duration
Acrylic Nails
3 to 4 weeks
Gel Nail Extensions
2 to 3 weeks
Polygel
Around 3 weeks
Refills are recommended at the 2-week mark for best results.
Aftercare Tips for Long-Lasting Gel and Acrylic Nails
Good nails last longer with small habits. Here’s what to keep in mind:
Wear gloves when washing dishes or cleaning — water and chemicals break down products faster.
Use cuticle oil daily to keep the skin around your nails soft and prevent lifting.
Don’t use your nails as tools — no popping cans, peeling labels, or poking at packaging.
Book a quick fix if you see any lifting or cracks. Waiting makes it worse.
A little care goes a long way. Your natural nails stay healthier, and your extensions look better – for longer.

REVIEW US
I visited this salon for the first time and was completely satisfied with both the quality and the service.
Christina
I've been a regular client of this salon for 2 years now. Overall, it's a really great salon. After moving, I was afraid to go to new technicians (I thought they might ruin my nails), but everything turned out perfectly thanks to It's Beauty. Thank you!
Anita
I had a manicure today and really loved everything. The salon is beautiful and cozy, with friendly staff and professional technicians. I definitely recommend it.
