Pricing at Antheia Enhance varies by type and length. Gel extensions start from approximately ₹1,500 and acrylic extensions from ₹1,200. Please call or WhatsApp us for a current price list.

We strongly advise against removing nail extensions at home. Improper removal can cause severe damage to your natural nails. Visit Antheia Enhance for a safe, professional removal.

Q: What is Russian manicure?

Russian manicure is a dry e-file technique where a professional uses an electric file to precisely clean and remove cuticles without soaking the nails in water. The result is an ultra-clean, glass-like finish that lasts significantly longer than a traditional manicure.

Our Nail Extension Process

1

Nail Consultation

We begin with a thorough consultation to understand your desired length, shape, design and nail health. This helps us recommend the most suitable extension type — gel, acrylic or builder gel — based on your lifestyle and natural nail condition.

2

Prep & Natural Nail Cleanse

Preparation is the foundation of long-lasting extensions. We remove any old polish, gently push back and clean the cuticle area, lightly buff the nail surface to remove shine and dehydrate the nail plate to ensure maximum adhesion.

3

Form or Tip Application

Depending on your chosen extension type, we apply a nail form (for sculpted extensions) or a nail tip to provide the structural base for building your desired length and shape. Forms are precisely fitted to ensure a natural, seamless curve.

4

Gel or Acrylic Build

The product is carefully applied and built up in layers to create structure, strength and the correct C-curve. Each gel layer is cured under an LED or UV lamp. Acrylic is formed with precision beads and allowed to self-level before shaping.

5

Shape, File & Polish

Once the extension material is set, we file and shape nails to your chosen style — square, oval, almond, coffin or stiletto. The surface is buffed smooth and finished with your chosen gel polish colour, nail art or chrome powder for the final look.

Aftercare Tips for Nail Extensions

Avoid prolonged contact with harsh chemicals — wear rubber gloves when cleaning or washing dishes
Apply cuticle oil daily around the nail edges to keep the skin hydrated and reduce lifting
Avoid using your nails as tools — no picking, prying or opening cans
Keep nails away from acetone-based products between appointments
Book your fill-in appointment every 3 weeks to maintain a perfect look
Moisturise your hands regularly to keep the skin around extensions healthy

Frequently Asked Questions

How long do nail extensions last?

Gel and acrylic nail extensions typically last 3 to 4 weeks before requiring a fill-in. With good aftercare — especially avoiding harsh chemicals and applying cuticle oil daily — you can extend the wear time and keep your set looking pristine until your next appointment.

Gel vs acrylic — which is better for nail extensions?

Neither is universally better — it depends on your lifestyle. Gel extensions are lighter, more flexible and have a naturally glossy finish, making them ideal for everyday and professional settings. Acrylic extensions offer more structural strength and are better for dramatic lengths or for clients who do a lot of manual work. Our technicians will recommend the best option during consultation.

What is the price for nail extensions in Dehradun at Antheia Enhance?

Pricing depends on the type (gel, acrylic, builder gel), the length and any nail art additions. Gel extensions start from approximately ₹1,500 and acrylic from ₹1,200. Russian manicure with gel polish starts from ₹1,800. Please WhatsApp or call us for a full, up-to-date price list and current offers.

Can I remove nail extensions at home?

We strongly advise against home removal. Incorrect removal — especially peeling or forcefully lifting extensions — can strip layers from your natural nail, causing thinning, breakage and long-term damage. Our professional removal service safely dissolves the product with minimal risk, and we assess the health of your natural nails immediately after.

Are nail extensions safe for my natural nails?

Yes, when applied and removed by trained professionals using quality products, nail extensions are completely safe. We take care not to over-file the natural nail during preparation, use professional primers rather than harsh adhesives, and recommend builder gel overlays for those with particularly thin or damaged nails to ensure long-term nail health.

What is Russian manicure and how is it different from a regular manicure?

Russian manicure is a dry, e-file technique where an electric file is used to precisely clean the cuticle area and remove dead skin without any water soaking. Because there is no water involved, the nail plate does not expand and then contract, meaning gel polish adheres far better and lasts significantly longer. The finish is ultra-clean and the gel hugs the skin closely for a beautifully defined look.
