  • I recently visited Covet and had a fantastic experience! The salon was clean, comfortable, and had a relaxing atmosphere. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, i have been with sheridan . she making sure I felt at ease throughout my visit. The attention to detail in their work was impressive, and I left with beautiful nails that exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend this salon to anyone looking for great service and a comfortable, enjoyable experience!

  • I have had bad experiences with beauty treatments so I am very fussy I recommending any business. I had the best experience with Imogen this morning. I wanted specific treatment for my brow. She did exactly what I requested...the wax used is the best because there was no red face when I left. There's no burning sensation. She shaped my brow perfectly, no red face... very polite, listening to my wishes, great product. I highly recommend this place for the service, product and proximity to Newcastle in general. Parking was great as well. I am a very satisfied customer and I will be back.

Gel Nails FAQs

Gel nails cost between $10 and $100 in Shortland.

Once you’ve had gel nails applied, they should remain chip-free for between 2-3 weeks.

Although gel manicures look beautiful, they can cause your natural nails to become brittle. The American Academy of Dermatology reports that repeated use of gel nails can increase the risk of skin cancer and the premature ageing of skin on the hands.

Gel and shellac nails both cure under UV light, but their composition is different. Gel nail polish is a lacquer made from acrylic monomers and oligomers; shellac polish is part gel, part regular nail polish, and is a patented brand by Creative Nail Design (CND). Both give a high shine and long-lasting finish.

Gel nails tend to give a more natural and glossier finish than acrylic nails; they are cured under a UV lamp and last for around 2 weeks. Acrylic nails are stronger than gels and start to cure as soon as they’re exposed to air; they generally last for 6-8 weeks but will need fills after 2 weeks to hide regrowth. Both can be used to lengthen nails and both can damage your natural nails.

Once every 2 weeks. Gel nails cure (harden) in UV light; this means they continue to cure in natural sunlight. The longer you keep your polish on, the longer it cures and the harder it is to remove. To reduce the risk of stripping and damaging your nails, it’s recommended that you book in with an experienced nail technician to remove and redo your gel nail polish every 2 weeks.
