Guide to the Different Types of Manicures
Nail Perth: Elegance at DeLuxe Nina Nails in Perth
At DeLuxe Nina Nails, our nail technicians offer an impressive array of manicure options, much like selecting the perfect dish from a gourmet menu. With so many choices available, it can be challenging to decide which manicure is right for you.
When choosing between the different types of manicures and pedicures, consider factors such as your available time, the level of pampering you desire, your budget, and whether you need your nails done for a daily look or a special occasion.
What are the Different Types of Manicures?
The primary types of manicures you will encounter include basic, acrylic, gel (including Shellac), French, and dip powder. Let’s explore each type and why you might choose them.

Basic Manicure
What is a Basic Manicure?
A basic manicure is a classic treatment that includes trimming, shaping, and buffing your nails. Cuticle oil is applied, and cuticles are carefully managed. The experience is topped off with a relaxing hand massage and the application of standard nail polish.
Pros of a Basic Manicure
- Affordable and quick pampering session
- Leaves nails glossy and vibrant
- Easy to remove at home
Cons of a Basic Manicure
- Prone to chipping
- Polish can become dull over time
French Manicure
What is a French Manicure?
The French manicure is a timeless look that features a sheer base with bright white tips. This style is experiencing a resurgence due to its simplicity and elegance.
Pros of a French Manicure
- Can be achieved with gel or traditional polish
- Makes fingers appear longer
- Complements any outfit
- Includes all pampering elements of a basic manicure
Cons of a French Manicure
- Traditional polish is prone to chipping
- Dependent on the shape and strength of your natural nails

Gel (Shellac) Manicure
What is a Gel or Shellac Manicure?
Shellac is a popular brand of gel nail polish that combines the benefits of both polish and gel. After the basic manicure steps, Shellac is applied and cured under a special lamp.
Pros of a Gel Manicure
- Durable and resistant to chipping
- Retains shine for weeks
- Wide range of vibrant colors
Cons of a Gel Manicure
- Slightly more expensive than basic manicures
- Removal can be complex and should ideally be done by a professional
- Higher risk of nail damage compared to traditional polish

Acrylic Manicure
What is an Acrylic Manicure?
Acrylic nails are created by mixing a liquid monomer and a powder polymer to form a hard protective layer on your natural nails. They can be shaped and decorated in various styles, depending on the technician’s creativity and skill.
Pros of an Acrylic Manicure
- Can achieve any nail shape regardless of natural nails
- Adds length and strength
- Great canvas for nail art
Cons of an Acrylic Manicure
- Can pop off with everyday use
- Noticeable new nail growth after a few weeks
- More expensive
- Requires breaks between applications to prevent damage
Dip Powder Manicure
What is a Dip Powder Manicure?
In a dip powder manicure, nails are treated with adhesive and then dipped into colored powder. This technique doesn’t require drying or curing time.
Pros of a Dip Powder Manicure
- No need for UV light curing
- Lasts longer than gel nails
Cons of a Dip Powder Manicure
- Different texture that some may not prefer
- Potential for nail thinning with repeated use
- Requires breaks between applications to maintain nail health

How to Choose Between the Different Types of Manicures?
Choosing the right manicure depends on your personal preferences and needs. Whether you prefer the simplicity of a basic manicure, the durability of gel nails, the versatility of acrylics, or the quick and long-lasting results of dip powder, DeLuxe Nina Nails ensures you receive top-notch service from skilled technicians. Enjoy your manicure at home or in our salon, and experience the luxury you deserve.
