How often should clients typically receive a fill for acrylic nails?

Clients typically should receive a fill for acrylic nails every 2 to 3 weeks. This timeframe allows for the natural growth of the nails and helps maintain the appearance and integrity of the acrylic application. As the natural nails grow, the acrylic can start to lift at the cuticle area, which makes regular fills essential to ensure that the nails remain well-groomed and healthy.

Waiting longer than 2 to 3 weeks can lead to more noticeable gaps, potential lifting, and a greater chance of damage to the natural nail, which is why this schedule is generally recommended in professional practices. Regular maintenance not only keeps the nails looking fresh but also helps prevent any lifting that could result in moisture or debris getting trapped underneath, which could cause issues such as infection or damage to the natural nail.
