    Acrylic nails and gels are two popular types of artificial nails. Acrylic nails are durable but require frequent fills as they grow out. Gels provide a more natural look and require less frequent fills but take longer to apply and must be professionally removed. While acrylics are easier to maintain at home, gels have advantages like a natural appearance and less frequent appointments needed. However, both options require regular salon visits and have pros and cons to consider.
