Experience the revolutionary soft gel extension system with genuine Aprés products. Lightweight, damage-free, and flawlessly beautiful nails that prioritize your nail health.
Aprés Gel-X® revolutionized the nail industry with its innovative soft gel extension system. Unlike traditional methods, Gel-X uses pre-sculpted, full-coverage soft gel tips that are cured onto your natural nails with a special extend gel. The result? Stunning, lightweight extensions that feel natural and cause zero damage to your nail bed.
At Dream Spa, we exclusively use 100% authentic Aprés products—never imitations or knock-offs. This commitment ensures you receive the quality, safety, and longevity that only genuine Gel-X can deliver.
Authentic Aprés products undergo rigorous testing and quality control. Each tip is precision-crafted for perfect fit, flexibility, and durability that imitations simply cannot match.
Genuine Aprés products are formulated without harmful chemicals. Imitation brands often contain uncertified ingredients that can cause allergic reactions, nail damage, or health concerns.
Authentic Gel-X tips and extend gel are engineered to work together perfectly, providing 3-4 weeks of flawless wear. Knock-offs often lift, crack, or yellow within days.
Real Aprés tips are remarkably thin and flexible, feeling like a natural extension of your nail. Imitations are often thick, heavy, and uncomfortable.
The authentic Gel-X system is designed for gentle removal without filing or damage. Cheaper alternatives often require aggressive removal that weakens natural nails.
Genuine Aprés extend gel has the ideal viscosity for smooth application and strong adhesion. Generic gels are often too runny or thick, leading to poor results.
The popularity of Gel-X has led to a flood of cheap imitation products flooding the market. These knock-offs may look similar, but they compromise on quality, safety, and performance. Common issues with imitation Gel-X products include:
At Dream Spa, we never compromise. Every Gel-X service uses exclusively authentic Aprés products purchased directly from authorized distributors, ensuring you receive the premium experience you deserve.
Nails are gently cleaned and lightly buffed—no aggressive filing required, preserving your natural nail health.
We select the perfect authentic Aprés tip size for each nail, ensuring a seamless, custom fit from sidewall to sidewall.
Genuine Aprés extend gel is applied to the tip and your natural nail, then cured under LED light for secure adhesion.
Tips are shaped to your desired length and style—square, almond, stiletto, coffin, or any custom shape you love.
Your choice of gel polish color or nail art is applied, then sealed with a glossy top coat for a flawless, long-lasting finish.
Gel-X is a revolutionary soft gel nail extension system created by Aprés. Unlike traditional gel polish applied over natural nails, Gel-X uses pre-sculpted, full-coverage soft gel tips that are adhered to your natural nails using a special extend gel. This creates a complete nail extension that's incredibly lightweight and flexible.
The main differences from regular gel nails include: Gel-X provides length and shape extensions (similar to acrylics), requires no harsh filing or drilling of your natural nails, uses a soak-off removal process that's gentle on nails, and offers a more natural, flexible feel compared to hard gel or acrylic extensions.
When applied with authentic Aprés products, Gel-X nails typically last 3-4 weeks with proper care. To maximize longevity, follow these care tips:
With proper maintenance, your Gel-X nails will stay beautiful and intact throughout their entire wear period.
No, when properly applied and removed, Gel-X does not damage your natural nails. In fact, it's one of the gentlest nail extension methods available. The Gel-X system requires only minimal buffing of the natural nail surface—no aggressive filing or drilling is needed, unlike acrylic or some hard gel applications.
The key to maintaining healthy nails with Gel-X is proper removal. At Dream Spa, we use the correct soak-off method with professional-grade products that gently dissolve the gel without forcing or prying, which protects your natural nail bed. We never use imitation products or improper removal techniques that could cause damage.
Many clients find their natural nails actually improve while wearing Gel-X because the extensions protect them from daily wear and tear, allowing them to grow stronger underneath.
Using authentic Aprés products makes a significant difference in quality, safety, and results. Authentic Aprés Gel-X tips and extend gel are specifically formulated to work together, providing superior adhesion, flexibility, and longevity. Imitation products often fail to deliver the same performance, leading to lifting, cracking, or premature wear within just days.
Safety is another critical concern. Genuine Aprés products undergo rigorous testing and contain safe, non-toxic formulas. Imitation brands may use uncertified chemicals that can cause allergic reactions, skin irritation, or long-term nail damage. Additionally, knock-off products are typically thicker and heavier, creating an unnatural appearance and uncomfortable feel.
At Dream Spa, we exclusively use 100% authentic Aprés products purchased directly from authorized distributors. This commitment ensures you receive the premium Gel-X experience—beautiful, lightweight nails that last 3-4 weeks without damage to your natural nails.
Don't settle for imitations. Treat yourself to the premium Gel-X experience with 100% authentic Aprés products. Your nails deserve the best—beautiful, lightweight extensions that prioritize health and longevity.
