Hands by Harper, operating under the legal name Hands by Harper LLC, is located at 510 Branch St in Platte City. The business's menu is grouped into manicures, full sets, natural nail services, per-nail nail art, and add-ons.
The salon's main recommendation is builder gel overlay, which is applied to natural nails without adding length. The business says it suits clients who don't want extensions or who want to strengthen and grow their natural nails. Acrylic full sets are sculpted over forms rather than tips.
Nail art is priced per nail in three tiers. Simpler designs such as french tips, dotting, marbling, solid chrome, and cat eye fall in the first tier. The second tier covers isolated chrome or cat eye, 3D flowers and lines, striping, ombré, and blooming effects. The third tier covers complex hand-drawn or sculpted designs, fully bling nails, and high-detail sets, and it requires a consultation before booking. For that consultation, clients send an inspiration photo or describe the design by message. Clients who want only solid colour do not need to book nail art.
Fills are available only for acrylic full sets. If three or more nails have come off, the client books a removal followed by a full set. Builder gel overlay and full-set clients rebook with their original service. Hours are Monday from 2:00 pm to 8:00 pm, Tuesday from 3:00 pm to 9:00 pm, and Wednesday from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm, with the salon closed Thursday through Sunday.
The salon says builder gel overlay is its top recommendation for clients who avoid extensions or want to strengthen and grow natural nails.
