How frequently should clients typically get their nails refilled with acrylics?

Clients typically should get their nails refilled with acrylics every 2 to 4 weeks because this time frame allows for proper maintenance of the acrylic nails while accommodating the natural growth of the nail bed. As nails grow, a gap will form between the cuticle area and the acrylic, which can lead to compromised aesthetics and potential lifting if not addressed regularly.

Refilling within this 2 to 4-week period is crucial to keep the nails looking fresh and well-maintained, ensuring both the health of the natural nails and the overall appearance of the acrylics. Regular appointments within this timeframe help to prevent issues such as lifting or breakage and ensure that the acrylic remains firmly adhered to the nail.

More frequent visits, such as every week, could be excessive for most clients, while extending the refill period beyond 4 weeks may risk structural integrity and the appearance of the nails. Therefore, the 2 to 4-week recommendation strikes a balance between maintenance needs and client convenience.
