How to make your sets last longer (Like a Pro)

💅🏽 The Truth About Long-Lasting Nails

At Holliwood Studio, we believe beautiful nails should also be durable. Nothing’s worse than a perfect set lifting before its time — so here’s how I make sure your nails stay picture-perfect long after your appointment.

✨ Step 1: Proper Prep Is Everything

Longevity starts before the polish.

I always begin by gently pushing back cuticles, cleaning the nail plate, and removing all oils or residue. A clean, dry surface gives your product something to truly hold on to.

If you’re doing nails at home, make sure to buff lightly and use a dehydrator — that step alone can extend your wear by days.

💎 Step 2: Primer and Product Quality

Primer is your best friend.

It’s what creates that invisible bond that keeps your nails attached. I use professional-grade products that balance strength and flexibility — no shortcuts.

If you’ve ever wondered why Holliwood Studio sets last, this is one of the secrets.

🌸 Step 3: Application With Intention

Every bead, every stroke matters.

I apply each layer evenly, sealing the edges and shaping precisely. Over-building or rushing can cause early lifting, so I always focus on structure andsymmetry.

🪞 Step 4: Aftercare Is Half the Magic

Once you leave the chair, the rest is in your routine:

• Wear gloves when cleaning.

• Avoid using your nails as tools.

• Keep your hands moisturized with cuticle oil daily.

Treat your nails like jewelry, not tools — that’s the Holliwood rule.

🌟 Step 5: Maintenance Equals Longevity

Book your refill or soak-off appointments on time. I prefer in chair before the service is complete.

Most sets last 2–3 weeks, but keeping a consistent schedule protects your natural nails and helps them grow healthier.
