What Affects the Cost?

Pricing depends on the type of nail service (traditional polish, gel, or acrylics), complexity of any design work, salon location within Lewisham, and the technician's experience level. Premium salons in central Lewisham or near transport hubs may charge more. Quality of gel products, custom artwork, and additional treatments like nail overlays also impact final cost. Infills typically cost 60–75% of a full set.

Money-Saving Tips

Book infills rather than full replacements to extend time between appointments by 2–3 weeks and reduce costs. Consider off-peak appointments (weekday mornings) for discounted rates. Many Lewisham salons offer loyalty schemes or package deals for regular clients—ask about repeat booking discounts.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I get gel nails infilled?
Gel nails typically need infilling every 3–4 weeks as your natural nails grow. Infills cost 60–75% of a full set, making them more economical than replacements. Regular maintenance keeps your nails looking fresh and extends the lifespan of your gel set.
Are acrylic nails cheaper than gel?
Acrylic and gel prices are fairly comparable in Lewisham (£30–£50 for a full set). Acrylics are slightly less expensive initially but require more frequent fills. Gel lasts longer and appears more natural, so it often works out better value long-term.
What's included in a gel manicure?
A standard gel manicure includes nail shaping, cuticle work, two gel polish coats, and a top coat. Base work and removal of old polish are included. Nail art, embellishments, or premium treatments cost extra (typically £10–£25 additional).
Can I get nail extensions if my natural nails are damaged?
Yes—extensions actually protect damaged natural nails while they grow out. However, if nails are severely damaged or infected, most technicians will recommend waiting until they're healthier. Always discuss your nail condition with your technician before booking.
