About

The lash menu covers flat lashes, lash sets applied to each natural lash, lash lifts with an optional tint, bottom lashes and removal. Set options run from 70 pieces per eye for a natural look up to 5D and 6D volume sets for a dramatic one.

On the nail side, Japanese gel manicures use Leafgel, a soft potted gel. The studio describes this gel as flexible and long-lasting, lasting three to four weeks when maintained. Russian gel manicures include removal of old gel and are priced by design level, from one color up to artist-level design. A regular manicure uses traditional polish without LED or UV curing and typically lasts three to five days. Tip extensions, Gel-X extensions and half tips with nail sculpture are also offered, with a broken nail repair or single-finger extension available as a smaller service.

Several services are bundled. Lash and gel combinations pair a lash set with one color or a simple design. The lash lift special includes a complimentary 10-minute scalp massage. Artist Design appointments reserve a set amount of time, and any extra time is charged at $50 per 30 minutes. Clients booking Artist Design can bring several reference images.

The studio describes its Japanese gel as healthy, flexible and long-lasting, and its Russian gel as long-lasting, with strong, sculpted results.
