The Essential Apres Gel X Nail Tips Measurement Guide

Looking for a detailed Gel-X Tips Meaurement Guide? We've got you & your Apres nail covered!

Finding the perfect  Apres Gel-X Tip size is essential for achieving a flawless, salon quality manicure at home or in the studio. Whether you're a pro nail tech or DIY enthusiast, knowing how to correctly measure your natural nails or Apres Gel-X extensions ensures long-lasting wear, proper fit and natural looking finish.
If you're shopping for Apres Gel-X kits, tips or accessories, understanding tip sizing is the first step to the perfect application. Let's get started with how to find your ideal Gel-x fir-from thumb to pinky.
The sizing chart(s) are rough measurements in millimeters. These are intended for choosing nail tip width & lengths.
  1. Using transparent tape, place it across the largest part of your nail.
  2. Mark the 2 sides of your nails on the tape with a pen.
  3.  Remove the tape and measure it with a ruler.
  4.  Measure each nail, pick your nail bed and shape and compare it with our nail sizing guide below.

Thumb / Index / Middle / Ring / Pinky

  • Don't forget not to include your pen marks in your measurements (it will add an extra 1-2mm to your actual size).
  • It's always better to size up than down so you can file away the edges for a better fit but can never add material back!
  • Apres Pro Tip: Don't forget to check both hands - lots of times nails on one hand may be different sizes!
