New: GelX Nail Extensions - The Future of Nail Art Trends

By Sarina Nails & Beauty

⏱️ Read Time: 2 minutes

✨ What Is GelX?

GelX is the latest innovation in nail enhancements, combining the strength of acrylic with the flexibility of gel — all in one seamless, lightweight extension. Unlike traditional methods that involve harsh filing or toxic adhesives, GelX is a soft gel tip applied over your natural nail using a specially formulated gel adhesive.

This system creates a flawless, natural-looking extension without the damage often caused by acrylics. Whether you’re into clean minimal nails or bold designs, GelX gives you both style and substance.

🌿 Why Choose GelX?

✅ 1. Safe & Gentle on Nails

GelX skips the harsh chemicals and aggressive filing. It’s an excellent option for clients who are recovering from nail damage or want to avoid it entirely. The soak-off removal process is easy and gentle — no drills needed!

✅ 2. Long-Lasting Perfection

With proper care, your GelX manicure can last up to 3+ weeks. Whether you're traveling, typing away at work, or doing chores at home, GelX stays glossy and chip-free. It's perfect for a busy lifestyle.

✅ 3. Limitless Styles

From classy French tips to creative nail art masterpieces, GelX gives you endless design freedom. The full coverage tips come in various lengths and shapes — almond, coffin, square, stiletto — making it easy to match your unique style.

What’s the Difference Between Gel and Acrylic Nails?

Nail lovers often face a common question when choosing an enhancement service: Should I go for gel or acrylic nails? While both options give you beautiful, long-lasting results, they’re actually quite different in terms of texture, durability, and how they’re applied.

Let’s break it down so you know exactly what to expect before your next appointment at Sarina Nails & Beauty.

1. What Are Gel Nails?

Gel nails are created using a special type of polish that’s cured under a UV or LED lamp. They come in two main types: soft gel (used for gel polish manicures) and hard gel (used to build extensions).

Application Process:

• Nails are shaped and buffed.

• A base coat is applied, followed by 2–3 coats of gel polish.

• Each layer is cured under a UV or LED lamp for about 30 seconds.

• Finished with a topcoat and final cure.

Pros:

• High-shine finish that lasts up to 3 weeks.

• Flexible and more natural-looking.

• Less damage to natural nails when removed properly.

Cons:

• Can chip sooner than acrylics if not properly applied.

• May not be strong enough for people with weak nails unless hard gel is used.

• Best for: Clients who want a natural feel, longer wear than regular polish, and a clean, glossy look.

2. What Are Acrylic Nails?

Acrylic nails are made by combining a liquid monomer and a powder polymer to form a paste, which is then applied to your nails and shaped. It hardens naturally through air-drying.

Application Process:

• Nail plate is prepared and dehydrated.

• Acrylic mix is applied and sculpted to shape.

• Nails are filed, shaped, and painted once hardened.

Pros:

• Extremely durable—lasts 3–4 weeks.

• Ideal for longer lengths and dramatic shapes (stiletto, coffin, etc.).

• Great canvas for detailed nail art and designs.

Cons:

• Harsher chemical smell during application.

• Can weaken the natural nail if over-filed or removed incorrectly.

• Thicker than gel nails, sometimes less natural-looking.

• Best for: Clients who want long, strong nails with bold shapes or intricate nail art.

3. Which One Should You Choose?

Ask yourself: Do you want a natural feel with a super glossy finish? Try gel nails. Do you love long, dramatic shapes with durability? Go with acrylics. Looking for something in-between? Try builder gel or Gel-X, which combines flexibility with strength.

Why Our Nail Art Stands Out

Toronto's Top Nail Trends for 2025

Toronto’s nail scene in 2025 is all about bold statements, wearable art, and a return to chic minimalism—with a twist. Whether you're into eye-catching designs or subtle elegance, here are the hottest nail trends you’ll see at Sarina Nails this year:

1. Chrome & Metallic Finishes

Chrome nails continue to dominate! Think molten metal, mirror shine, and galaxy-inspired color shifts. Silver, rose gold, and holographic are leading the pack.

2. Micro French Tips

The classic French manicure gets a makeover with ultra-thin, colored tips—lavender, neon green, or gold. It’s clean, modern, and elegant.

3. Aura Nails

This spiritual-meets-psychedelic style blends gradient halos of color—usually with soft pastels or bold blues. Each set looks like a dreamy mood ring.

4. 3D Embellishments

Pearls, mini gems, and sculpted accents are popular for glam looks and special occasions like birthdays or weddings. Perfect for photo-ready moments.

5. Clean Girl Nails (Soft Neutrals)

Inspired by the minimal “clean girl” aesthetic, soft beige, sheer pink, and milky whites are in. Combine this with high-shine gel and perfect cuticles for a polished finish.

6. Edgy Abstract Art

Toronto’s art scene influences abstract nail designs—mixing brushstroke textures, asymmetrical lines, and layered colors. Every nail becomes its own canvas.

7. Personalized Nail Charms

A hot trend from Japan and Korea, nail jewelry and detachable charms are now available in Toronto salons like Sarina Nails. You can even swap them out between sets!
