Gel Nails Vienna
Perfect shine that stays: gel manicure and full sets in the 4th district — lasting up to 4 weeks.
The treatment
What gel nails can do
Gel is the classic choice for anyone who wants more than two weeks' break from chipping polish: the gel is applied in thin layers, cured under the lamp and finally sealed — a shine that lasts up to 4 weeks.
Whether a gel overlay on the natural nail for extra stability, a classic gel manicure with shellac colour, or a full set with extension — we'll advise you on which option suits your nails and your everyday life.
After that, all you need to do is come in every 3–4 weeks for a refill (from €50) — and your nails stay beautifully groomed for the long run.

Gel know-how
Gel nails in detail — types, care, wear time
Gel overlay, gel manicure or full set — which do you need?
Not every gel treatment is the same. The gel overlay goes straight onto your natural length and gives soft, brittle nails stability — ideal if you don't want an extension. The gel manicure with shellac (from €45) combines complete nail care with long-lasting colour. And the full set builds length and shape entirely from new — right up to our delicate slim nails.
Which option suits you depends on your natural nail, your everyday life and the look you want. That's exactly what we clarify in two minutes at the start of your appointment — honestly, without selling you more than your nails need.
How your gel nails stay beautiful for four weeks
The wear time of your gel nails is decided half in the studio — and half at home. The most important rules: gloves when cleaning (detergents attack the seal), nail oil daily on cuticles and the base, and never use your nails as a tool — no opening cans, no scratching off labels.
After 3–4 weeks the regrowth has grown out — then it's time for a refill (from €50). Anyone who keeps to this rhythm wears perfect nails for the long run, without the natural nail underneath suffering. And if a nail does break or a corner lifts: pop in briefly, small repairs are done quickly.

For beginners
Your first time getting gel nails?
How to prepare for the appointment
Barely at all — and that's the point: come with unpolished, un-creamed nails (hand cream right before worsens adhesion), allow 60–90 minutes depending on the treatment and feel free to bring inspiration photos. Everything else — shape, length, shade — we discuss together at the start.
An honest note for newcomers: for the first few days gel nails feel unfamiliar, especially with a new length. After a week you won't want to give them up — clients have been telling us so for years.
What gel nails really cost — fully calculated
Transparency thought through to the end: getting started with a manicure, gel and shellac costs from €45, after which the rhythm continues with a refill (from €50) every 3–4 weeks. Over a year you'll know to the euro what permanently groomed nails cost — no hidden surcharges, no surprises at the till.
Extras stay extras: French or babyboomer from €10, chrome from €5, custom design from €15 — only if you want them.
Frequently asked
Gel nails — FAQ
How long do gel nails last?
With good care, 3 to 4 weeks. After that we recommend a refill of the regrowth area from €50 — so the set stays beautiful and stable for the long run.
Are gel nails harmful to the natural nail?
Not when applied properly and removed gently. We work with high-quality gels, buff the natural nail only minimally and remove old product softly — without damaging the nail plate.
How much do gel nails cost in Vienna?
With us: manicure with gel and shellac from €45, full slim-nails sculpting from €70, refill from €50. That keeps us well below the average of many studios in the 4th district — at full quality.
Gel or shellac — which is better for me?
Shellac is thinner, looks more natural and comes off faster — but lasts less long. Gel is more durable, lasts up to 4 weeks and can extend the nail. We'll advise you honestly on what suits your nails.
How long does a gel nail appointment take?
A gel manicure takes about 60 minutes, a full set 60–90 minutes. For a refill you'll need around an hour.
