Blush & Buff Nail Studio

Blush & Buff Nail Studio is located on South Huron River Drive in New Boston. It is open Tuesday, Friday and Saturday, with afternoon hours on Tuesday and Friday and a shorter morning-to-early-afternoon window on Saturday.

The nail menu runs from a $30 regular manicure to a $50 basic pedicure, with gel manicures and pedicures, structured gel manicures and Gel-X sets. A regular manicure takes about 30 minutes and includes shaping, cuticle care, a hand massage and regular polish, though nail art is not offered with regular polish. Gel services use shellac in a color the client chooses. Gel-X sets, starting at $80, include detailed cuticle work and a tip in almond or square shape, and long or XL Gel-X sets are not offered. Structured gel manicures layer a multi-flex gel over the natural nail and typically last three to six weeks. Nail art is priced by design complexity, with custom quotes available on request.

The tanning menu centers on the Luxury Blush & Bronzed Rapid Tan, a 30-minute spray tan at $65. It develops in about one to six hours, its shade can be customized, and the formula includes aloe vera, vitamin E and antioxidants. Before a spray tan, clients are asked to exfoliate 24 hours ahead, avoid lotions, perfumes and deodorants, and wear loose dark clothing. Two spray tans are $99 and four are $199 as packages, and package credits apply automatically at checkout when booking as usual.

Cancellations made within 12 hours of an appointment carry a 50% fee, and a no-show is charged the full price of the service. After a no-show, the next service must be paid in full before a new booking is made. Clients with gel on from another nail tech must choose the soak-off option, and shellac applied by the studio is not charged for soak-off, while removing shellac applied elsewhere is.

The studio aims to be a comfortable, secure place to spend a visit, and it uses premium products.

A cozy space meant to feel safe for the length of an appointment.
