September 2026 Client Cases at Mars Nails

Client Case 01 · Acrylic Removal

Rebuilding Structure After Acrylic Removal

This client arrived with old acrylic product. We removed the previous material, cleaned away product that had reached the surrounding skin, and completed detailed cuticle preparation. Builder gel was then used to rebuild the nail structure. The goal was a cleaner outline, balanced shape, and additional support without creating unnecessary bulk.

Client Case 02 · Sensitive Skin

Adjusting the Service After Dip Powder Removal

After removing the client's dip powder, we slightly extended the nails to improve the final shape.

Because the surrounding skin was damaged and very sensitive, the Russian manicure approach was adjusted and performed with gentler sanding. The finished set was balanced with builder gel, kept natural in appearance, and completed with small silver crystals.

Client Case 03 · Foot Care

Treating Lifting and Cracked Heels

This client came in with lifting on the existing toenail product and visible heel cracks. We carefully removed the old material and used a gentle approach without cutting tools.

A thin gel finish was applied after the nail work. The heel cracks were cleaned using sanding discs, the feet were polished, and the appointment was finished with professional foot-care products.

Client Case 04 · Nail Repair

Repairing a Broken Toenail with Polygel

The client arrived with a broken toenail. We rebuilt the missing area with polygel before completing the rest of the appointment.

The nails were shaped into a soft square with no sharp corners and finished with dark blue glitter gel polish. The feet also received gentle sanding and careful callus removal.

This client wanted added length for her wedding. We created the new shape using lower forms, built a soft almond silhouette, and chose a translucent milky finish for a clean bridal result.
