Modern life is pretty hard on the hands and nails – nails particularly, which not only bear the brunt of most everyday activities but can be affected by poor diet, fast lifestyles (you know what we’re talking about!) and stress. Our acrylic extensions are a perfect solution – natural looking, quick and hard wearing. Guaranteed, in other words, to give you great looking nails no matter how fast paced your life is.

Stress – at work, in relationships, or just from living in the greatest (and most wearing) city on earth – shows up fast in your nails: and once it’s there, it’s very difficult to get rid of. Removing stress and promoting a healthier, more balanced body is the whole aim of the Doctor Fish Spa. We’re not daft enough to think that every salon treatment can automatically blow away the cares and worries of every day life, though – which is where sessions like our acrylic extensions come in. Acrylic nail extensions are built onto the existing nail using a mixture of powder and liquid, which hardens in roughly a quarter of an hour. Once hard, the artificial nail can be filed and shaped into any desired appearance – it will look rosy, healthy and full of shine, replacing the tired original nail underneath.

Acrylic extensions have two major advantages over other forms of nail enhancement. Firstly, they’re extremely natural looking: the acrylic solution, once hardened, looks very much like a real polished nail. That makes them ideal for jazzing up tired hands – or just offering a semi-permanent solution to time-consuming nail care routines. An artificial nail needs no care, as such – all you have to do is paint it when you want it painted, or come in to have it touched up and shaped as you wish.

Second, acrylic extensions, while very natural looking and semi permanent, are very easy to remove. The application of professional standard solvents like acetone removes acrylic extensions in 15 minutes, revealing the natural nail underneath. That makes acrylic nail extensions perfect for weddings, honeymoons, holidays or just having something a bit stunning for the summer months. Fancy some festival nails, perhaps? Or just want to top off the rest of your gorgeous self for some sunning sessions in the park? Ask our nail technicians about the acrylic extensions that will suit you best and get ready to start turning heads!

Because acrylic extensions are so easy to take off and replace, there are no real care necessities you need to follow. Your nail stylist will give you full information on how to get the best out of them – but ultimately you don’t even need to worry if you break one. Just pop back in for a second appointment (which you’ll probably be wanting to do anyway, once you’ve checked out our atmosphere) and we’ll get you back on the street with full functioning gorgeous nails in no time.
