I have a gel mani and it’s grown out considerably due to me not having time to go to the salon. I’m going this week but I noticed one of my nails broke, and I think the break is on the nail-bed. It’s a slight break but it is still a break! This is my actual nail and the gel polish is still on my nail. My next appt is Friday and I asked for gel removal and a regular (non gel) polish. Is this ok? What can I do in the meantime? I know gel removal is a lot of stress on the nail 🥺

This may be unsightly, but try putting a flesh colored bandaid over it. This will protect it from breaking further.

They usually fix my nail for me if it’s broken even after gel (no chip) removal

Let your nail tech know it’s broken so they can be extra careful! I’ve had this happen before, a break high up in the nail bed so that it took over a month to grow out. I ended up not painting my nails for a while and just wearing a bandaid over it because it would snag on things and tear more if not.

They can easily add a piece of silk wrap over the broken area and buff it in. It binds the area until it tries out Z looks seamless
