Gel nails have taken the beauty world by storm. We’ve all been there—sitting in a salon chair while a nail technician diligently applies gel polish layer by layer, then curing it under a UV light. The results are spectacular, but the price and time commitment? Not so much. That’s where Nails Mailed comes in. With our innovative Gel Nail Wraps, you can achieve salon-quality gel nails at home at a fraction of the cost. Plus, with our Nail Perks Program, you can rack up even more savings. Intrigued? Read on.

Why Gel Nails Are the Gold Standard

Gel nails are a must-have for many, offering a shine and durability that’s unrivaled. Here’s what makes them stand out:

  1. Longevity: Unlike regular polish, gel nails can last up to two weeks without chipping.

  2. Glossy Finish: The high-shine finish of gel nails is another major attraction.

  3. Quick Drying: Once cured under a UV or LED lamp, gel nails are completely dry.

The Problem with Salon Gel Nails

While gel nails are amazing, getting them at a salon has some drawbacks:

  1. Cost: A salon gel manicure can set you back anywhere from $30 to $90, not including tips.
  2. Time: A single salon visit can take up to two hours of your precious time.
  3. Limited Designs: Salons often have limited gel nail designs, unless you go to a high-end boutique.

Enter Nails Mailed Gel Nail Wraps

Our Gel Nail Wraps are the perfect solution. They bring salon-quality gel nails to the comfort of your home. Here's why you should make the switch:

Applying our Gel Nail Wraps is a breeze. In less than 10 minutes, you can have a fresh set of gel nails at home without the fuss of traditional methods.

 

No UV Light Required—But LED Nail Lamp Recommended

While our FlexiGel Nail Wraps don’t require curing under a UV light, we recommend using our affordable LED lamp ($7.99) for a perfect finish with both FlexiGel and Gel nail wraps. This helps seal the wrap, ensuring your nails look fantastic for longer.
