Is Nail Extension Safe for Natural Nails? Truth vs. Myth

Long, flawless, and artistically fashioned nails are not just an indication of one's beauty – they also provide the individual with a sense of self-esteem. It doesn't matter where you are, from the business meeting to the restaurant, nails with style and class always attract attention. Nail extensions are a trend very popular in Dubai, especially among women who want to have fashionable nails without because about their busy daily routines or nails that break easily.

But with popularity comes confusion. One question that is quite frequent in the salon chair at Eyana Ladies Salon in Karama is:

👉 "Are nail extensions healthy for my natural nails?"


We might as well settle the debate once and for all – with facts, not fear.

🔎 What are Nail Extensions?

Nail extensions are basically artificial nails that are adhered to your natural nails to enhance the length and aesthetic appeal. At Eyana, we offer:

  • Acrylic Extensions
  • Gel Extensions
  • Polygel Extensions
  • Press-ons (for temporary options)

We offer each type to benefit your nail health, lifestyle, and desired aesthetic.





✅ Do Nail Extensions Damage Your Natural Nails? Let’s Find Out!

Yes — when applied and maintained correctly.
Nail extensions are not inherently harmful to your natural nails. Problems arise when:

  • Untrained technicians over-file your nail plate
  • Products of poor quality are used
  • You skip regular maintenance or pull them off at home

At Eyana Ladies Salon, safety is not an option – it is a promise.
Our nail artists are schooled in the gentle work-in, and we only use high-quality products that have been tested on the skin with less chance of an allergic reaction.

◾ Common Myths About Nail Extensions (And the Truths)

🚫 Myth 1: Nail Extensions Ruining Natural Nails is the Only Outcome
✅ Truth:
Nail extensions will only cause nail damage if the removal is done incorrectly or involves excessive filing.
The culprits for the damage are over-filing, forceful removal, and a lack of nail care. The Eyana professionals are trained to use the gentlest methods for the application and removal of your extensions.

🚫 Myth 2: Acrylic Is More Damaging Than Gel
✅ Truth:

Both acrylic and gel extensions are safe if done by a professional.
The question is: what works better for your lifestyle?

  • Acrylic is more rigid and durable – a fantastic feature for long wear.
  • Gel is more flexible and natural-looking.
  • We offer free consultations to help you pick the right one at Eyana Salon, Karama.

🚫 Myth 3: You will always be addicted to nail extensions.
✅ Truth:
If you want to wear nail extensions for a limited time, such as while you're on holiday, you can totally go back to your own nails at any time.
If you have them removed properly, your natural nails will be healthy and regain their strength in time.
We also provide and recommend coal revival treatment until your natural nails have grown enough to grow again.


🚫 Myth 4: Extension causes fungal and infectious diseases
✅ Truth:
Fungal infection is caused by the use of dirty equipment and/or poor sealing of nails, not in detail.

At Eyana, we stick to strict salon cleanliness rules:

  • Clean tools for each client
  • Sealed applications to keep moisture out
  • Hospital-grade disinfectants

💡 How to Keep Your Nail Extensions in Good Shape
Whether you prefer French tips or eye-catching nail art, use these tips to take care of both your extensions and your natural nails:

✔️ Get Professional Application
Stay away from DIY kits — they often cause excessive filing and harm.

✔️ Book Refills Every 2–3 Weeks
Waiting too long for refills causes lifting and increases the risk of infections.


Be sure to hydrate cuticles every day
Well-micrized cuticles mean a healthy nail bed.
Use cuticle oil on a regular basis.

✔️ Don't Pick or Peel
Peeling extensions off damages the nail plate.
Have them taken off safely by a professional.

Let Your Nails Breathe Once in a While
Between setting processes, the nails need some breathing space.
Consider a strengthening treatment at Eyana.
