About

Kate M. has worked as a nail technician since 1995, and the business is her nail services practice in Barrington. Clients can choose from a range of manicures, pedicures and combined mani/pedi visits, with prices listed from $15 for a polish change up to $90 for a no chip mani with no chip pedi.

Her work centers on gel, no chip and natural nail care. Spa manicures and pedicures use CND Spa Gardenia Woods products, with a soak, scrub, masque and lotion, and no chip services use Semilac Paris polish, which the business says lasts 14 days. Regular manicures and pedicures use OPI, Essie and Essie Couture polishes.

Every visit includes a relaxing massage. A pedicure with extended massage runs 75 minutes and is also offered on its own.

Booking is flexible: clients can call or text, book online including same-day slots, or walk in and ask for Kate. Gift certificates are available. The business asks for at least 24 hours notice to cancel or rebook, and cancellations or missed appointments without that notice are charged the full service amount.

Each visit includes a relaxing massage, and the aim is for every client to leave happy and willing to return.
