    Why We Don't Offer Traditional Acrylic Nails

    Why We Don't Offer Traditional Acrylic Nails

    The Truth About Acrylics

    Traditional acrylic nails often involve harsh liquid monomers (like MMA or EMA) that emit strong, toxic fumes and require aggressive filing of the natural nail bed. At Tenley Nails Spa, your health and our technicians' health come first. We believe that beautiful nail extensions shouldn't require compromising your wellness.

    Healthier Alternatives: Builder Gel & Gel-X

    Instead of acrylics, we proudly offer Builder Gel and Gel-X extensions. These modern systems are completely odorless, significantly lighter on the natural nail, and require far less drilling. They provide the length and durability you want, with the clean, non-toxic approach you deserve.
