The manicure and pedicure menu runs from classic grooming to spa-style pedicures. A classic pedicure includes a soak, nail shaping, and cuticle care and usually takes about 45 minutes. The garnet, amethyst, and emerald pedicures are built around mask treatments, with the amethyst adding paraffin and the emerald adding paraffin, an exfoliating scrub, and a hot stone massage; those typically run 60 to 75 minutes. Vitamin-E care is offered on some manicures and no-chip manicures, and the Dazzle Dry nail system is used on some manicures, pedicures, and add-ons. Several manicure and pedicure combinations are priced between $63 and $127 depending on the polish and treatments chosen.

Nail services include polish changes for hands and toes, French polish and French gel, nail repair for a single nail, custom nail art that is discussed during a consultation before the service, and paraffin dips for hands or feet. The studio offers European gel applications and Gel-X extensions, each finished with regular polish or no-chip gel polish. Gel and dip removal uses controlled soaking and gentle filing rather than aggressive drilling, and the nail services page describes the nail staff as certified clinical nail specialists trained in safe gel and dip removal. According to the studio, European gel manicures generally last two to three weeks, and no-chip gel polish can last up to two weeks or longer with proper care. Clients are asked to arrive with clean nails and to avoid heavy lotions beforehand.

Facial services range from a classic cleansing, exfoliating, and nourishing facial to technology-based treatments. The Hydrafacial is a medical-grade resurfacing facial with hydration, and the DMK Enzyme Therapy is a medical-grade enzyme facial. The Korean Filler Facial is a needle-free, non-invasive option that uses poly-L-lactic acid. Other options include a microcurrent facial that uses low-voltage electricity, an LED light treatment that the studio describes for active acne and inflammation, and an aromatherapy facial with a back massage. Facial treatments are tailored with individual plans and product suggestions for home care. The studio says its facial services are performed by licensed specialists.

Waxing covers the face, brows, lashes, underarms, arms, legs, bikini area, back, chest, and a full body service that can be customized by zone at booking. The studio uses hypoallergenic, high-quality waxes and aftercare products, and it says its sanitation is strict and uses disposable applicators. Patch tests may be recommended for clients with sensitive skin or pigment sensitivities, and open lesions are not waxed. Eyebrow tinting can be combined with a waxing appointment if mentioned when booking. The studio says waxing results typically last three to six weeks, varying with the hair growth cycle.

The studio welcomes children aged three to twelve, who can book a junior-sized manicure and pedicure set. A basic kids manicure or polish usually runs 20 to 30 minutes, and pedicures or detailed designs can run up to 45 minutes. Parents are allowed to stay in the room, but they are asked to give technicians space to work without interruptions. Products made for children are described as hypoallergenic, non-toxic and safe for kids. Guests with allergies are asked to tell the studio before their appointment. The studio also offers small group bookings and birthday party packages that include mini manicures and themed nail art. Cancellations and reschedules require 24 hours' notice. Late cancellations or no-shows may be charged a fee that is a portion of the service price.

Technicians adjust pressure and treatments to each client's comfort and nail health, and facial treatments follow individual plans with professional product suggestions for home care.

The studio describes its setting as relaxing and elegant, with calm treatment rooms and comfortable seating.
