Magick Moon Nails

The studio is run by Mariane Williams, a registered nurse who is also a licensed nail technician. The business describes its nail care as safe, diabetic-friendly and no-damage, and says its implements are cleaned, disinfected and sterilized.

Services are by appointment, Monday through Saturday from 10 AM to 8 PM, with the studio closed on Sundays. Manicures and pedicures take place on a heated massage table with adjustable orthopedic pillows. Clients can choose a TV program or a radio station, rest with a jade crystal eye mask, and have tea, hot or cold coffee, espresso or water. A laptop table and wifi are available for anyone who wants to work during their visit.

Gel-X extensions are a clear full-tip gel by the brand Apres, applied with gel and cured under LED light. They come in 29 lengths and shapes, including almond, coffin, round, stiletto and square, with prices by length from $70 for XS to $100 for XXXL. Each Gel-X service includes one color gel polish and a Russian-style manicure, and a $10 soak-off fee applies if removal is needed.

Many clients who began with extensions have moved to builder gel overlays so they can grow out their natural nails. Builder gel adds structure and strength without adding length, and the studio uses a heat-spike-resistant builder gel that is HEMA-free and TPO-free. The business states that manicures last an average of 4 to 5 weeks or longer when care instructions are followed.

A $25 non-refundable deposit per service reserves an appointment and is applied to the total. Deposits can move to an earlier date but cannot be transferred to another person or a later date. Changes made with less than 48 hours notice carry a $25 charge, and changes with less than 24 hours notice are charged the full service cost. Arriving more than 15 minutes late results in cancellation, and a no-show is charged for all booked services. Fee exceptions may be granted for emergencies at the studio's discretion. Refunds are not given, so any issue with a service should be reported right away so it can be addressed.

The business describes its philosophy as safe, no-damage nail care in a clean, holistic setting, and it uses HEMA-free and TPO-free nail products.

The business describes its atmosphere as clean and holistic, with Zero Gravity pedicures held in a private suite.
