Quick answer
To build your own Salon X-tend nail bundle, pick a nail size that matches your natural nail width, choose a color or design you love, and include the LED lamp if you don't already own one. The bundle saves you money compared to buying each piece separately.
Why build a custom bundle instead of buying a kit?
Pre-made kits are convenient, but they might include a shade or nail length that isn't your favorite. When you build your own bundle, you control every piece: the nail size, the color, the adhesive, and the lamp. This is especially useful if you have narrow or wide nail beds, or if you want a specific seasonal color that a standard kit doesn't offer.
Another advantage is cost. The Build Your Own Bundle option for Salon X-tend Nails is priced at $72.00 compared to a catalog comparison price of $100.00, so you get exactly what you need without paying for extras you won't use.
What to consider before you start
Salon X-tend nails are pre-polished and ready to apply, so you don't need to paint or cure color. The key decision points are nail width (size), nail length, and whether you need the Smart Touch Mini LED Lamp. The lamp is only available in starter kits, so if you don't have one yet, you'll need to get a kit first or check if your bundle can include it.
Also consider how many sets you want. A single set covers one full manicure. If you plan to reapply or want backups for mistakes, order two sets.
Decision rules for building your bundle
- Nail width (size): Measure the width of each natural nail at the cuticle. Choose the size that matches the widest part of your nail. If you're between sizes, go with the larger size and file the sides gently.
- Nail length and shape: Salon X-tend nails come in various lengths (short, medium, long) and shapes (round, square, almond, coffin). Pick a length you can comfortably type or work with. If you're new to extensions, start with short or medium.
- Color or design: Select a shade or pattern that suits your style. Because the nails are pre-polished, you don't need to paint them. If you want a neutral everyday look, go with clear or nude. For events, try a bold color or glitter.
- Adhesive and lamp: The Gel Adhesive is included in most bundles. You'll also need the Smart Touch Mini LED Lamp for curing. This lamp is only available in starter kits, so if you don't have one, add a starter kit to your order first, then build your bundle with additional nail sets. If you already own the lamp, you can skip the starter kit and just buy refill bundles.
