Polygel for nail extensions: what it is, advantages and disadvantages
Polygel is a popular material among manicurists, which has earned its popularity due to the successful combination of the advantages of acrylic and gel in nail extensions. Let's take a closer look at what polygel is, and why it has won the trust of professionals. During the discussion, we will also not ignore its positive and negative sides.
What is polygel?
Polygel is an innovative hybrid of acrylic and gel that provides optimal performance for the perfect manicure. Its dense texture provides convenience when working with both upper and lower forms, eliminating the problem of material leakage, which sometimes happens with gel extensions.
The unique consistency of the polygel makes the manicure process faster and more efficient. The product is not too thick, but also does not "flow", providing an ideal viscosity ratio. The polygel easily models the nail, allowing you to create shapes such as square, almond, and oval with ease.
One of the benefits of polygel is that it is easy to spread over the nail, and once polymerised, residue can be easily removed with a cutter. It is important to note that polygel does not harden in the air, unlike acrylic, which allows the master to carefully shape the nail for as long as necessary. The material provides excellent adhesion to the nail and does not fall behind the free edge, providing a long-lasting and beautiful result.

Advantages of Polygel
- Durability and stability: Polygel is highly durable, allowing you to create long-lasting and reliable artificial nails. It does not chip or break as easily as some other materials.
- Ease of application: Unlike acrylic, polygel is easy to apply to the nails without the formation of unpleasant odour. This makes the build-up process more comfortable for clients and the master.
- Natural look: Polygel has transparency and natural shine, which creates the effect of natural nails. This is especially important for those who prefer a natural and well-groomed look.
- Flexible and lightweight: Polygel has good flexibility, which makes the nails more natural in movement. It is also lighter than acrylic, which may be more comfortable for those who don't like the feeling of heaviness on their nails.
- Safety: Polygel typically contains fewer chemical ingredients than acrylic, which reduces the risk of allergic reactions and irritations for clients.
- Creativity: Polygel can be easily shaped and manipulated during the build-up process, giving the technician more opportunities to be creative and create unique designs.
Using polygel for nail extensions combines durability, aesthetics and comfort, making it an attractive choice for both professionals and their clients.
Disadvantages of polygel
Polygel has outstanding strength and stability, which requires considerable effort and patience to remove it when using cutters or saws. The optimal removal process is best carried out using specialised equipment. When the craftsman has extensive experience with this material, the removal process becomes easy and quick!
