Sheer pink almond gel extensions by Patty at Halo Nails, Reservoir

Nail extensions in Reservoir

Nail extensions at Halo Nails are tip extensions: length is added with tips, then finished in builder gel in the shape, length and colour you choose. Choose from over 150 gel colours to finish your set.

At Halo Nails it's just you and Patty in her private studio, so there's time for careful prep and the small details that make a set look right.

A new set is booked as Builder Gel Extensions – Full Set. To keep a set looking fresh, book a Builder Gel Re-balance / Refill. If you want strength and shape without extra length, see the builder gel overlay.

Rated 4.9 on Google

From short natural nails to this beautiful almond-shaped set with a soft lilac chrome finish and delicate seashell details—the transformation is amazing. She was gentle, patient and paid great attention to every detail.

Nail extension questions

They're tip extensions. Length is added with tips, then the set is finished in builder gel in the shape, length and colour you choose. Book a new set as Builder Gel Extensions – Full Set. A builder gel overlay is different: it adds strength and shape to your natural nails, with no length added. If that's what you'd like, see the builder gel page.

Patty recommends a re-balance about every 4 weeks. She'll let you know if your nails need different timing.

To keep a builder gel extension set, book a refill. If product needs to come off before a new full set, add Existing product removal when you book so there's time for it (it adds 10 minutes). Let Patty know when you book, and send a photo if you're not sure what's on your nails. Patty can also refill or remove nails done at another salon. She'll check them first and tell you if a fresh set would give a better result.

You can choose the shape, length and colour with Patty. Bring or send photos of anything you like, and she'll talk you through what will work on your nails.

Text Patty a photo of your nails and what you'd like on 0426 652 818, and she'll help you pick before you book. If you'd rather have colour on your natural nails only, start with gel polish.
