mamapirk Posted March 13, 2018 Author #2 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Does anyone know if the salon is capable of doing a nexgen manicure? Thanks so much! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Since I’m now on board I can answer my own question. [emoji23] And the answer is no, only gel polish or acrylic fills. Securing an appointment is more complicated. I’m hoping there will be salons in port. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelcat2 Posted March 13, 2018 #3 Share Posted March 13, 2018 Try making an appointment on a port day (if you have any time). I have not had difficulty getting a nail appointment on any Regent ship. Had to look up what "nexgen" is. It ends up that I have had this done at my local salon and was to a fan. What are the reasons that you like it (just curious). Hope that you are enjoying every moment of your cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travelcat2 Posted March 14, 2018 #6 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Thanks for your feedback. I suspect that my nail person wasn't familiar with the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irishwitchy Posted March 14, 2018 #7 Share Posted March 14, 2018 I have to ask, I got my nails done on the Mariner a couple of months ago and I bring my own polish, because I like the color. Anyway, the scrub that was used smelled just like curry. It was the oddest smelling scrub and my hands smelled like curry the rest of the day. Mind you I like to eat curry, but I don't want to smell like it. Has anyone else ever have this scrub, it was also a very gross looking green color.

Wendy The Wanderer Posted March 14, 2018 #10 Share Posted March 14, 2018 So thanks to Youtube I've studied up on Nexgen nails! Wow, what a process! But then I've never had artificial nails, so it sure looks amazing to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then I've never had artificial nails, so it sure looks amazing to me! I was really nervous the first time I did nexgen, because I only had regular manicures for decades. No artifical nails. After the first, I never looked back! Try it -- Sheila Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Got2Cruise Posted March 15, 2018 #13 Share Posted March 15, 2018 Nexgen is a brand name. I would never use a salon that uses the drill. It’s not necessary and ruins your nail. That said on a cruise you could do a gel manicure for a one time hold over until you got home instead of wasting a port day. A generic name for the Nexgen is powder gel. SNS is another popular brand.
