You may use nail extensionsor natural nail plate. When you want longer nails but gel manicure, gel nail extensions are used.

They look strong and fierce, giving those who choose to wear them more character. Acrylic nails appear to look unnatural if not correctly applied.<\/p>\n<h3>Sustainability<\/h3>\n<p>Naturally, no manicure lasts forever, but the clots can be worn for a certain time prior to cracking or lifting.
