About

KJYNails is open Tuesday through Saturday, 10 AM to 7 PM, and is closed Sunday and Monday. Appointments are booked through the salon's online booking site. For bookings from $50 to $4,000, Buy Now, Pay Later is available in person, subject to approval before the appointment.

Gel manicures start at $60 and take at least an hour. Designs are grouped into three tiers. The first covers French, chrome, ombré, cat eye and aura work with simple line art or a few gems. The second adds marble, simple 3D, isolated chrome accents, multiple gems and detailed line art, along with French with added designs. The third covers designs on every nail, complex 3D, multiple aura, chunky gems and character work. Gel polish changes start at $40 and take 45 minutes, and nail fixes start at $15.

Structure gel is a thicker, flexible builder gel meant to add strength to natural nails and reduce breakage. Structure gel manicures and fills start at $80 for short nails and $90 for medium or long nails, each taking at least 90 minutes. Fills address cuticle regrowth, rebalance the shape and add a new layer of builder gel. They cannot be done if grow-out is more than three weeks.

Gel-X are soft gel extensions that soak off and are offered as a natural-looking alternative to acrylics. Full sets start at $90 for short or medium lengths and $100 for long or extra-long lengths, each taking 75 minutes or more. Fills start at $90 or $100 and take at least 90 minutes; they can also shorten nails and add builder gel over the existing tip. Like structure gel fills, they cannot be done with more than three weeks of grow-out.

Removal and soak-off services cover gel polish, structure gel, Gel-X, dip and acrylics, starting from $25 to $40 depending on the service, each about 30 minutes, with a $10 deposit. The top layer is filed, nails are wrapped in acetone-soaked cotton to soften the gel, and the gel is then pushed or buffed off. Gift cards come in $50, $75, $100 or $200 amounts or a custom amount, and gift card sales are final.

Services are organized by product type and design complexity, with starting prices that depend on nail length and design tier.
