FAQ
Why should I choose Press On Nails over acrylics or gel nails from the nail salon?
It really comes down to a matter of preference! However, there are quite a few factors that may help with your decision. Do you like to switch up colours and designs instead of staying committed to one look for a long period of time? Maybe you want to match your nails to your outfit for the day like an accessory? Or you like wearing your nails long when you go out but your work or home life does not allow it? Or you just don't want to waste your valuable time sitting in a nail salon or spend money getting your nails filled every two weeks? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, press on nails are perfect for you! If not, Mirage Nail Studio also offers gel nail services in Vancouver, Canada!
Are Mirage Nail Studio Press On Nails reusable?
Yes, our press on nails are definitely reusable!! Make sure you follow the Removal Instructions carefully and not soak the press ons in acetone, or else they will break down and not be able to be reused.
How long do Press On Nails stay on for?
This depends on many factors including your lifestyle, how rough you are with your hands, how well you prepped your natural nails, the length of the nails, the accuracy of sizing, and choice of adhesion. Generally, adhesive tabs are for a shorter period of wear and last around 1-3 days. Application with nail glue can last around 2 weeks. We have gotten our press on nails to stay on for up to 1 week with adhesive tabs and up to 4 weeks with nail glue. However, we highly recommend keeping a tube of nail glue with you just in case!
How do I apply/remove my Press On Nails?
You can find detailed application and removal instructions on you Thank you/Instructions card that came with your order, or in the Instruction menu tab. You can also find application and removal tutorials on our Instagram IGTV or Tiktok both @mirage_nailstudio
How do I know my Nail Sizing?
You can find everything you need to know about Nail Sizing and how to measure your nails in the Sizing Guide menu tab. If you don't want to measure you nail sizing, you may choose to purchase a Sizing Kit or one of our Ready To Wear sets. We highly recommend purchasing our Sizing Kit to get the most accurate fit.
