Gel Nail Extensions in NYC

Nail extensions at M. STUDIO are for when length and structure need more than polish. We sculpt with hard gel toward a clean silhouette that still moves like a natural nail when it is done right.

Correction visits are part of the rhythm β€” growth happens, and we plan for it. Whether you need a full set or a fill, our technicians focus on shape, strength, and a finish that lasts between appointments.

Why hard gel extensions

ServiceDurationPrice
Nail extensions β€” one color3 hr$180 – $200
Correction of extended nails β€” one color2 hr 30 min$140 – $160

If you are new to extensions, book enough time for shaping and color β€” we would rather under-promise on speed than rush a structure you live with for weeks. Add-ons like nail art or design are quoted at the appointment.

Extensions vs. gel overlay vs. gel polish

Extensions add length. Gel overlay (builder base) reinforces your natural nail without adding length. Gel polish is color only. If you do not need length, a gel manicure with optional hard gel overlay may be the better fit.

Our Work

What are gel nail extensions?

Gel nail extensions use hard gel to sculpt additional length beyond your natural nail. Unlike acrylics, hard gel is more flexible and bonds securely to the natural nail with proper prep.

How often do extensions need correction?

Most clients come in for a correction (fill) every 3 to 4 weeks as the nail grows out. Regular corrections keep the extension balanced and prevent lifting.

How much do nail extensions cost?

A full set of extensions (one color) is $180 – $200. Corrections start at $140 – $160. Add-ons like nail art are quoted at the appointment.

Are extensions safe for natural nails?

Yes, when applied and removed by trained professionals. We use proper e-file prep and avoid excessive filing of the natural nail surface.

How do I book?

Book online through our website or call +1 (929) 507-40-60. We are open Monday – Sunday, 10 AM – 8 PM at 34 W 37th St, New York.

Thank you so much for the service and the comfortable studio. My nail tech Ivanna created a very rare cat's eye color with chrome. The result exceeded my expectations.
