What Is Gel Pedicures & Polish Application?
A gel pedicure includes all the elements of a standard pedicure, such as soaking, nail shaping, cuticle care, and exfoliation, but finishes with gel polish application. Gel polish is cured under a UV or LED lamp, creating a hard, glossy finish that is significantly more durable than regular polish.
At Meraki Salon in Mountainside, NJ, we use professional-grade gel systems in a wide range of colors to ensure beautiful, long-lasting results.

Service Description
Your gel pedicure begins with a relaxing foot soak followed by nail trimming and shaping to your preferred shape. Cuticles are cleaned and pushed back, and light callus work smooths any rough areas.
After exfoliation and moisturizing, your technician applies gel polish in your chosen color. Each layer, including base coat, two color coats, and top coat, is cured under an LED lamp for instant, complete drying.
You leave the salon with toenails that are completely dry, gorgeously glossy, and ready to last for weeks without a single chip.

What Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does gel pedicure polish last?
Gel pedicure polish typically lasts 3–4 weeks, and sometimes longer. Toenails grow more slowly than fingernails, so gel pedicures often last longer than gel manicures.
Can I wear closed-toe shoes right after?
Yes! Gel polish is completely cured and dry when you leave, so you can put on shoes immediately without worrying about smudging.
How is gel polish removed from toes?
We use a gentle soak-off method at your next appointment. We never file or scrape your natural nails during removal.
