Nail extensions are artificial nails or false nails put on top of your original ones. The process is not at all painful. Nail extensions are either Gel or Acrylic. Gel nail extensions are more real-looking than Acrylic ones. But both are artificial and last for about a month or so depending upon the kind of care you take. Nail extensions sit properly if you have a big nail bed. But don’t get fussy if you don’t. There is a nail extension for all.
