How long do the nail strips last?

They last up to 2 weeks , and with a top coat you can stretch that to around 3 weeks . If you're hard on your hands (lots of manual work, adventures, or if they're applied incorrectly), expect closer to 1 week .

Do they extend my nails?

No, the wraps are soft and hug your natural nail, so they don't add length. You can apply them over nail extensions though: they bond beautifully to plastic tips and actually last even longer than on natural nails, which produce oils that can loosen adhesive. Extensions are entirely optional.

How do I take them off?

It takes just minutes to take off your nail wraps. Push down on the cuticle side with the wooden stick and gently peel the wrap off. For an even gentler removal, work a little body oil or nail polish remover under the edge with the stick first. And make sure you keep the wooden stick after application as you will need it for the removal.

You don't need a UV lamp. Our wraps are pre-cured at the factory , so there's no lamp and no curing step. All you need is what's in the box, plus your own nail scissors or clippers.

Will they damage my natural nails?

The damage is minimal compared to that of salon gels. Because the adhesive bonds to your nail, there's a tiny bit of wear, but it's minimal, and it disappears once you massage in a little lotion or oil. Used consistently, your nails can keep growing healthy and strong.

My nails are thin. Can I use the wraps without breaking one?

Yes, and they'll actually help. Each wrap is made of 6 layers of adhesive, gel and top coat, thick and glossy, so they add support and make thin nails feel sturdier. They don't set rock-hard like salon gel or UV-cured wraps; they stay flexible while giving your natural nails more thickness.

Do they harden after application?

The 5 Minute Salon wraps don't harden like UV gel. Since they're pre-cured there's no lamp and no hardening step, so they stay flexible. Once the adhesive has fully bonded over a few hours (you don't need to wait for that process as your mani and pedi is ready right after application), they feel firm and set to the touch.

Do you offer international shipping?

Yes, we ship to over 50 countries , usually within a couple of weeks. Build a box and spend over the free-shipping threshold (shown in your cart as you add designs) and international shipping is on us.

If I don't love them, can I return them for a refund?

Absolutely. We spent over a year perfecting the formula and designs, and we want you to love them. If your first set isn't for you, email support@5minutesalon.com within 30 days and we'll start your refund.

Meet the founder

Hi, I’m Anna

Two years ago, I fell in love with a simple idea: salon-worthy nails without the salon, the price, or the two-hour appointment. Gel nail stickers promised exactly that, but the ones I tried never quite delivered. So I set out to make my own.

That turned into more than a year of work. I researched and tested supplier after supplier, then flew to South Korea to visit our factory in person and get every detail right. I designed each look myself, chose every color by hand, and tested different formulas until the gel felt thick, glossy, and truly salon quality.

What you see in the shop today is the result of this hard work, and it’s the product I now wear on repeat. Every design here is one I’ve worn on my own nails first. I’d love for you to come say hi, and I'm happy to personally hear your feedback.
