Sculpted or tip-based extensions for length and shape, in acrylic or hard gel.
Both acrylic and hard gel extensions add length and shape over the natural nail, either sculpted directly or built over a tip. The two products differ in how they are mixed and cured, but the practical concerns for the person wearing them are similar: fit at the cuticle, how the edges are finished, and how the set is maintained as your natural nail grows out underneath it.
The part worth watching is lifting — where the extension separates from the natural nail near the base as it grows out. A small gap that goes unaddressed can trap moisture underneath, and moisture trapped under a nail for any length of time is how you end up with an infection rather than just a cosmetic problem. Getting a lifting extension filled or repaired promptly, rather than waiting it out, is the difference.
