Gel mani-pedi

This treatment takes roughly 90 minutes, with an extra 20 minutes if you have any gel polish that needs removing beforehand.

If your pro offers French tips as an add-on, then yes! You'll see the add-ons available from your pro when you checkout – French tips will cost an extra £15.

Gel polish typically lasts around two to three weeks for fingernails, and three to four weeks on toenails.

Yes, but take care that you don’t have any cuts, infections or lesions around your nails before booking.

Yes, this treatment is pregnancy-safe.

Urban beauty pros only use premium gel polish brands, such as O.P.I., CND Shellac, Gelish and The Gel Bottle, ensuring a high-quality finish that lasts. If you have a preferred brand, check your pro's bio before booking. You can also message them directly via the Urban app after booking.

No, your nail technician will bring everything required, including the gel polish, tools and a UV lamp. All you need is a comfortable place to sit, a flat surface for the technician to set up and access to a plug socket for the lamp. If you've added a nail polish soak-off, they’ll also bring the necessary removal tools.

When you pick your nail treatment, tick 'With gel removal'. Your pro will then professionally remove any gel polish left on your hands before reapplying.

Never try to peel or chip away gel polish yourself, as this can damage your nails.

It's probably not for you if:

- You like to switch your colours often – gel polish lasts for up to two weeks so a classic mani-pedi might be best

- You’ve got any cuts, nail infections or lesions on your fingers or around your nails

- You've got athlete's foot or a contagious skin disease
