behind our brand
Our nail extension system
After years of dedicated effort and perseverance, we have perfected the techniques for creating reusable nail extensions that are not only strong but also sleek and seamless. Our primary emphasis lies in the shaping and sculpting of these nail extensions.
Our reusable nail extension system is crafted for flexibility and ease of use. We take great pride in developing a solution that not only performs well but is also safe and convenient. Above all, we have placed a strong emphasis on the safety and quality of our ingredients.
Every piece of our packaging and its labels is crafted by hand in our studio. After years of dedication, we made the choice to minimize plastic usage, aiming to cut down on waste and mass production while offering a more personalized touch to our packaging. Our design philosophy embraces a minimalist approach, prioritizing elegance and functionality.
Our nail boxes are crafted on demand, which helps reduce waste. For shipping, we use cushioned boxes filled with tissue paper, allowing customers to repurpose them. We’ve kept our product boxes minimal and steered clear of plastic inserts.
Though we aren’t completely plastic-free, we strive to limit its use to situations where it is absolutely necessary.
The Inglass Nails Story
Nails with Purpose
We’re Inglass Nails — a family-owned and operated brand founded by a wife and husband team with a shared vision and steady hands. From day one, we made a conscious decision to keep our faces behind the scenes and let the nails speak for themselves. Inglass Nails was never meant to be about us — it’s always been about you, our clients, and the elegance of our handcrafted nail extensions.
Our name, Inglass, was inspired by the delicate beauty of encapsulated flowers. The clarity resembled glass, and we knew we had something special. What began as an idea to create premium press-on nails — custom-sized, fully handmade, and unlike anything else on the market — quickly evolved into a mission.
We started this journey in 2021 with a simple goal: redefine what press-on nails could be. Back then, encapsulating florals inside nails was unheard of, and we faced every obstacle you can imagine — from sizing inconsistencies and product structure flaws to trial after trial with materials like gel polish, nail polish, dip powder, acrylic paint, and even resin.
In 2023, we shifted to Apres nail tips and builder gel to sculpt each set. It was an improvement — but still not enough. Every launch brought new challenges that forced us to pause, reassess, and refine. The process was demanding and, at times, disheartening. But with every setback came a breakthrough.
By 2024, we finally found our rhythm. We removed nail tips entirely and began sculpting directly with hard gel — creating a truly reusable, durable, and premium nail extension. We developed our own nail bonder formula, an effective remover, and even introduced a custom sizing system unique to Inglass. We also redesigned our website, revamped our packaging, and transitioned away from the term “press-ons.” Our work had outgrown it.
Today, Inglass Nails is a completely redefined brand. What started as a vision has now become a product we’re deeply proud of — the kind of nail extension we always imagined but didn’t yet know how to create.
2025 marked our next leap: we re-launched our website, removed select UV-reliant products, and transitioned to a fully air-dry system — keeping your experience as effortless as it is beautiful.
This is more than just a product — it’s the result of years of learning, testing, failing, and pushing forward. Every sleepless night, every workshop, every mistake — it was all worth it.
And now, our journey continues — with you.
