Valley Village runs busy, so our clients from there usually want low maintenance: done well once, lasts, no weekly touch ups. That is the heart of Gel-X. With a clean fit and good prep, a set wears two to three weeks of clean, lightweight length, then soaks off gently when you come back. We take the extra few minutes on the fitting so you are not back early with a lifted tip.
Directions and parking from Valley Village
From Valley Village, head south on Laurel Canyon or Coldwater to Ventura, then a short way west to 13612 Ventura on the south side, usually about ten minutes. Park on the quiet side streets just off the boulevard, steps from the door.
Book your Gel-X ahead rather than walking in. Extensions take more chair time, and a reserved slot means we can give the fitting the care that makes a set last.
About the service
Gel-X is a soft gel extension: a full coverage tip bonded over the whole natural nail and cured under a lamp, so it is light and soaks off cleanly instead of being filed away. We use the Aprés Gel-X system. New to it? See what Gel-X nails are and are Gel-X nails safe. Sets start at $60; the full menu is on our pricing page, and the Gel-X service page covers the whole appointment.
