Nail detox end of semi-permanent August 2026: You Rêve catalogue 2 options. Option A: Removal (€10) + SPA Luxe manicure without polish (€55, includes cuticle oil and SPA hand massage) = €65, ~65 min. Option B: Kapping BIAB coloured (€60, transparent or coloured, 3-4 week structural rebuild, 60 min — add removal €10/15 min if arriving with semi-permanent). All prices from the official menu.

1. Why detox after 6 weeks semi-permanent
OPI semi-permanent theoretically lasts 3 weeks, but many keep it 4-6 weeks on holiday for convenience. After 6 weeks:
- Free-edge peeling on 1-2 nails.
- Visible growth 5-7 mm — uncovered natural nail edge.
- Slightly weakened plate from successive prior removals.
- Dry retracted cuticles.
Hence the value of detox pause before new cycle.

2. You Rêve reset 2 options — catalogue services
Option A: Removal + SPA Luxe manicure (no polish) = €65, ~65 min
- Diagnosis 5 min — plate state, fungus signs, peeling.
- Hand semi-permanent removal warm acetone, 15 min — no pulling, gentle dissolution (€10).
- SPA Luxe manicure (no polish) €55, 50 min: hand bath + scrub + cuticle oil + light filing + SPA massage + nourishing cream.
Option B: Kapping BIAB coloured (transparent or coloured) = €60, 60 min
- Diagnosis + preparation — plate state.
- Kapping BIAB transparent or coloured — fills peeling layers, reinforces structure, 3-4 week hold.
Note: if you arrive with a semi-permanent to remove, add removal €10/15 min (option B becomes €70/~75 min). All prices from the official service catalogue.

3. Pause vs new cycle
Two options after detox:
- Full pause option: no semi-permanent for 2-4 weeks, just transparent BIAB. Classic polish optional. Lets nail breathe.
- New cycle option: new OPI semi-permanent directly after detox, September back-to-school colour (plum, burgundy, coffee).
You Rêve recommendation: at least 1-2 week pause between 2 prolonged semi-permanent cycles.

4. Home upkeep advice
To preserve detox effect:
- Daily cuticle oil 1 month.
- Hydrating hand cream twice daily.
- Household gloves for prolonged dishes.
- No future home removal — always return to You Rêve.
