A structured gel manicure in NYC has become the go-to choice for clients seeking nails that look clean and remain strong for weeks. Based in the heart of New York, at 49 W 38th St, Pink of Manhattan creates nails that handle the city without chipping on day two.
Pink of Manhattan grew from months of real work. Every tile, every chair, every lamp was placed after long nights and countless decisions. Today, this beauty and nail salon feels alive and warm, and our team brings the same focus to every service.
Structured gel is not regular gel polish. It’s based on a builder layer that forms a strong but flexible base. This base reinforces the natural nail, protects it from breakage, and smoothes the surface, providing additional strength no matter how much you type, clean, or carry around on busy NYC days.
Clients love this treatment because it lasts for three to four weeks. You will have a perfect-looking manicure; it will keep its shape and stay shiny even after constant contact with water.
We use materials that support the natural nail instead of suffocating it. The structured gel overlay adds a medium-thick layer that feels light but gives real durability. If you are growing out nail damage, this treatment protects each nail tip so it can grow without peeling.
Our nail artists take their time with each step, so you always know what’s happening and never feel like you’re being rushed.
Some customers prefer shorter, round nails for everyday tasks. Some want longer ones for special occasions, showcasing a glamorous look. Well, a structured gel will do for both. The builder layer sets the shape steady, even if you bump your nail or move around the city carrying loads.
For a little something more, we can add nail extensions that blend into the structured gel. These extensions feel natural, light, and are perfect for instant length for clients who don't want to deal with cracks.
After shaping and curing, we apply the color. The polish goes on smoothly because the surface underneath is even and strong. Under the bright lights of Manhattan streets or soft indoor lighting, the finish stays shiny and flawless.
Our staff creates nail art for your lifestyle. Whether you want simplicity to get you through the workweek or something bold and daring for weekends, we can make clean lines and layered designs, or add just subtle touches that look perfect up close.

Many first-time guests remark on how relaxed the process is. We explain each step along the way, promoting self-care so there are no surprises. The treatment takes long enough to build a proper structure, not a hurried coat that chips in a few days.
Most appointments take about an hour and a half due to layering, shaping, and curing. Then you walk out with nails ready for anything: no waiting for polish to dry, no smudges, and no ruined tips.
Many clients start using structured gel after finding that their regular gel manicures chip or peel off too quickly. The builder layer provides support for the nails that ordinary polish simply can’t. Once customers get a pair of nails that lasts weeks, they remain loyal to this method.
All hot tools, e-file bits, and files are sanitized after every use. Our team works clean and follows steps that protect the natural nail, complemented with a pedicure. The natural nail remains strong underneath the structured gel layer.
Many clients combine this manicure with a pedicure for matching finishes from hand to toe. The combination appointment offers a fresh, uniform style that’s ready for anything.
