Short answer: two to three weeks of high-gloss, chip-free color — if it's done right. And "done right" is the whole game. A gel manicure that's properly prepped and cured doesn't lift, peel, or go dull halfway through your week.
Want it to last even longer? A GelX or BIAB set can carry you three to four weeks, adding strength while your natural nails grow underneath. Downtown days are long — your manicure should keep up.
Book your gel set at Polished in the Historic Core and get color that lasts as long as your week does.
