Gel pedicure?

[dottyaboutstripes]

If you get this done, can you tell me how long I could realistically expect it to look good for please?! I have the odd gel manicure but have never let anyone loose on my feet! Thanks

I have it done before I go on holiday. I expect it to last for a 2 week holiday and then have it taken off when I get back.

Having said that, I've got shellac on my toes at the moment, and that is still looking good after 3 weeks (although coming off next week).

I have jessica gel manicure and it looks really good for at least 4 weeks. Then obviously it grows out a bit but I can go ages inbetween having it done

I had one done at the end of May that still looks okay, just starting to grow out a bit now

Mine lasts for ages - 5-6 weeks?

I have a gel pedicure every six weeks, but sometimes I've left it a couple of weeks longer, if wanting it to be done nearer to a holiday or event, and its lasted fine.

Mine lasts for weeks. I have it redone in the end just because my toe nails need cutting lol

I'm getting my first gel pedicure next week and not sure what colour to go for. Something I'll be happy with for ages. Any suggestions? What does everyone go for?

Mine lasts until it grows out enough to look scruffy. About six weeks realistically. Mine are currently red.

I get a gel pedicure every 4weeks.
I could probably get away leaving it longer. I get my nails done every 4weeks so it's easier to get my toes done at the time.

Generally looks good for 3-4 weeks. After that the growth becomes a bit obvious.

I get a regular pedicure with standard varnish and it lasts a month. No need for gel on feet (hands essential!)

Gel’s brilliant on feet. No hanging about waiting for it to dry and it stays shiny until it’s removed. I’ll never have standard varnish again.

Brilliant! Thanks everyone 😊

How long do people get out of gel manicures? I had mine done on Tuesday (usually paint my own nails but we were going away for a few days) and I already think it looks daft because of gaps at the base. My nails grow super quick. I am going to remove it on Sunday but it seems a lot of money for less than a week. Maybe the lady didn’t go close enough yo the cuticle?

Mine look good for two weeks, tolerable for the third. I have them done every three weeks.

Thanks alsohuman I think mine are already intolerable!

Hmm, the photo didn’t post.

Oh, it did. Sorry.

Months - I have to have them redone eventually as they start to grow out

@Judystilldreamsofhorses mine were done 8 days ago and my nails grow really quick I'm hoping to get another 2-3 weeks out of them.

Mine lasts ages about 8 weeks

Absolutely ages. Months if I get it done towards the end of the summer. In fact, normal polish often lasts 8 weeks on my feet, without any chipping, so I've gone back to that!

My bio sculpture usually lasts 7/8 weeks and only then comes off because I have to cut my toenails! Would say it looks good for 5/6 weeks then the regrowth becomes noticeable
