Hooked on Nails is an education provider for the nail industry as well as interested consumers. Acrylic Nails Acrylic nails are called many different names, with the nail technician’s least favorite being “fake nails”. We much prefer the term artificial nails. There are several different types of artificial nail enhancement products as well as application procedures. The most commonly applied enhancement is traditional acrylic, which is a two-part system of liquid (monomer) and powder (polymer). This type of product can be applied with one color of acrylic, pink and white acrylic for a Permanent French look, or can be applied with colored acrylic, glitter acrylic or in any combination. Pink and white acrylic nails are often referred to as “Solar Nails”.
Solar Nail is a product made by Creative Nail Design Systems and includes their Original Solar Nail, Radical Solar Nail, Retention +, and Moxie acrylic systems. Unless you actually see this product in its original bottle on the nail table, your nails may not be ‘Solar Nails”.
Gel Nails Gel acrylic is a one-part system consisting of the application of a thick viscosity gel acrylic. Gel is normally ‘cured’ under a UV light. Do not confuse gel with traditional acrylic.
Even though the two products are actually acrylic, they apply and wear differently. Gel applied over acrylic to seal the surface does not make your nails “Gel Nails”.
Gel nails are actually acrylic nails; they are made from the same class of acrylates, but with different molecular structures, appearance, application procedures and different curing methods. Be certain you are receiving the artificial nails you requested. Nail Chemistry Acrylics contain cross-linking monomers. Cross links are like rungs on a ladder; creating strong net-like structures. Cross-links can also join many other layers of cross-linked nets. The result is a three-dimensional structure of great strength and flexibility.
This is how many types of artificial nail enhancements are made. See Product Chemistry for more information on nail product chemistry; how and why it works.

Time is money. Any nail technician knows that the speed with which she applies acrylic nails determines how many services she can fit into a day. This directly affects her income. To increase your speed when completing a full set or a fill in of acrylic nails, consider using an electric nail file, also known as a nail drill. The file not only expedites certain steps in the application of artificial nails, but can produce a more realistic-looking nail. Educate yourself on how to use it safely to protect your clients from painful injuries.
