LAVIS NON STICKY NAIL EXTENSION POLY GEL 20

Shade 20 of the 36 in Lavis's non-sticky poly gel. The tack of original poly gel is taken out of the formula, so a dry brush moves the bead, the cuticle line stays clean, and there is no slip solution bottle on the station.

Why techs pick shade 20

• Non-sticky: spreads with a clean brush, no slip solution, clean cuticle line, fewer application errors.
• Extensions, apex and overlays: sculpts over a dual form or nail form, builds an apex on the natural nail, reinforces an overlay.
• Strong and flexible once cured, and files cleanly.
• 60 to 90 second cure under a 36W or stronger LED lamp.

How to apply

1. Prep: cuticles back, buff, dust, dehydrate, primer or bonder (Base & Top Gel).
2. Fit a dual form or slide a nail form under the free edge.
3. Scoop a bead from the tube with the spatula, set it in the form or on the nail, shape with a clean brush.
4. Cure 60 to 90 seconds under a 36W or stronger LED; build the apex in two layers if needed.
5. Release the form, file, buff, then color and top coat.

Best for

Techs new to poly gel, because the bead stays where it is placed; high-volume salons, because there is one fewer bottle on the station; dual form services, where a poly gel is the natural fill; and apex work on natural nails that do not want length.

Questions about shade 20

Do I need slip solution? No. The non-sticky formula moves with a clean, dry brush. Lavis Slip Solution is listed for techs who also work an original poly gel or want a wetter brush for blending; use it sparingly.

What lamp does it need? Lavis specifies an LED lamp of 36W or more, 60 to 90 seconds per layer. Keep layers moderate and give a full cure before filing.

How is a poly gel extension refilled or removed? Refill every two to three weeks: file the regrowth flat, prep, add a bead at the cuticle side, blend, cure. Removal is by filing the bulk and taking the rest off like a hard gel; never pry.
