At Naba, we know that nothing elevates your look quite like a flawless gel polish finish. Our gel polish manicure and pedicure services in McKinney, TX, are designed to combine long-lasting color with exceptional shine, all while protecting the health of your natural nails. Unlike traditional polish, which can chip or fade within days, gel polish stays smooth, glossy, and vibrant for weeks. Paired with our Russian e-file technique, your gel polish is applied on a perfectly prepped nail surface, ensuring maximum durability and beauty.
 

What Makes Gel-Polish Different?

Gel polish is a specialized nail coating that cures under a UV or LED light, creating a durable and flexible finish. Unlike regular polish that air dries, gel hardens instantly, allowing you to leave the salon without worrying about smudges.
 

Key advantages of gel polish include:

• Long-Lasting Wear – Stays chip-free for 2–3 weeks.

• High-Shine Finish – Maintains a glossy look from day one to the day you return for a touch-up.

• Strength & Protection – Helps protect natural nails from breaking or peeling.

• Quick Drying – No more waiting for nails to air dry — gel cures instantly.

• Endless Color Options – Choose from timeless neutrals, bold brights, or seasonal trends.
   

Why Pair Gel-Polish with a Russian E-File Manicure or Pedicure?

At Naba, we specialize in the Russian e-file technique, which creates the ideal foundation for gel polish. By carefully removing excess cuticle tissue and smoothing the nail plate, we ensure the gel polish adheres more evenly and lasts longer.

Benefits of combining gel polish with a Russian e-file treatment:

• Cleaner application with no polish touching the skin

• Reduced risk of lifting or premature chipping

• Healthier nail growth between appointments

• Longer-lasting, salon-perfect results
