how long does it take to dry the nails?

Regular nail polish dries in just a few minutes but the clear gel coat takes longer. About 20 minutes and then it's sort of sticky for a few more minutes but I do like the nail dryer.

It takes as little as one to three minutes using gel nail polish. Use gel polish directions exactly and it works very well.

Its for gel polish, and there is 2 time settings. 90 seconds and 120 seconds.

These are soak-off gels that you use under a light. If applied correctly to nail, this particular line stays on nail for at least 10 days.

well I have followed someone else's advice and not touched the nail until after I put on the top coat, because the under-coats tend to remain sticky well after the 5 minutes I will have them under the light. (It was becoming an all day affair.) But by doing each nail for 5 minutes, and then doing the top coat for 8 minutes and not touching the nail until then, it was okay. It is still a bit "tacky" feeling, but then I rinse the nail with rubbing alcohol. It is still not a hard dry until some hours later. I bought the OPI products but not the UV light by OPI due to expense. So, I do not know if it would be better with their UV light dryer. And this dryer is not a single 54 watt UV bulb but 6 9-watt UV bulbs, sooo.... I don't know what to say.

I have applied it to both the nail surface and around the root. I let it dry for about 15 minutes before going to bed and I have noticed an improvement in 2 weeks.

I have done them both ways. Big thing, make sure your nails are very dry from water. And that your hands are warm, sticks better. I use the French nails, if you have a pretty color nail bed of your own, no need to polish first with a color. I do, mine are not great. After applying, I put a coat of clear instant dry clear over them. They last up to 4 weeks. Totally worth the time to apply, first time took me 2 hours. Now I'm down to an hour. Well worth it. Hope this helps.

I usually wait at least 2 hours to ensure that items are completely dry. The actual drying time may be quicker but I wait that long. The glue is no thicker than Elmer's glue. Hope that helps.

Since the hand and nails are made of plastic you can only do the one dry of nails. The acrylic doesn't come off well and masks the nail beds bad.

It can last up to two weeks depending on how rough you are on your nails. Mine generally lasts about a week.

Yes, it has a fan setting to dry regular nail polish. I use regular base coat, regular polish, let them dry good for a couple hours, then apply gel top coat. Cure for 90 seconds then wipe off with cleanser or alcohol. They look and last great and you don't have to buy expensive gel polish, just the top coat.

About two weeks for me. Sometimes nails come off earlier so I put nails and glue in my purse but most will last about to weeks.

it takes about an hour to do. I do two curing time settings on each coat and the last coat after curing, I take a brush and dip it in nail polish remover and coat the nails and then cure it two more times. it takes the sticky ness away

I do use this model to do my nails. I put on the base coat let dry 30 seconds put on color coat let dry 60 seconds put on second color coat let dry 60 seconds and finally put on top layer coat and let dry 90 seconds. so it takes four minutes to completely dry but will obviously take you longer to paint your nails than it will to dry them. I love this unit and I think it is a good value for the money.

Yes, just polish your nails and use the product when your nails are partially dry.

my wife use aluminum foil paper with cotton and she wrap the nail with a lot of polish remover on the cotton this will take you like 20 min

With gel polishes- it dries between 2-3 minutes each coat you set in the UV light, depending on the brand you are using. Most gel polishes set within 2 minutes each coat you apply. Then again, with gel nails, in total it should take about 6-8 minutes in total (2 minutes for setting the base coat, 2 minutes per color coat you apply, & 2 minutes for the final top coat.) With normal nail polishes- Personally, I would not recommend leaving your nails in there for a total of 10 minutes straight. That's all I know of.

I let the first coat dry 24 hours then put on the second coat. I then let in dry for 48 hours before using. It probably dried quicker but I really didn't put a time in it.

I'd say about 30 min. I never really timed it. It seemed to dry very quickly. I used it mainly with bottle caps so I really didn't have a need to touch them.
