Other services include a gel manicure for $55, with gel polish removal and designs booked separately, and a hand spa treatment for $30 with a sugar scrub, hydrating oil mask and hand massage. A moisturizing hand massage on its own is $10. The menu also covers nail reshaping, nail repair, and removals for gel, acrylic and foreign work applied by another tech.
Each client is seen one-on-one, which the business says sets it apart from nail salons. Each step of the process is explained as the work happens, and the aim is to build ongoing relationships so clients feel comfortable raising concerns. The business uses high-quality products with the goal of protecting natural nails while achieving the look a client wants. A portfolio shows nail art in Gel X, hard gel, soft gel, acrylic and gel manicure, grouped by art level.
New clients pay a booking deposit ranging from $1 for hand massage to $20 for a soft gel full set. Cancellations within 36 hours of the start time are charged 50%, and no-shows are charged 100%. Work applied by another tech must be removed, with a full set or removal booked first, before a fill; the business does not fill over others' work. Appointments starting 30 minutes or more outside service hours carry a 25% fee, and fully out-of-hours bookings add a further 50%, arranged by message. Hours are Monday, Wednesday and Thursday 10 AM to 7 PM, and Friday and Saturday 9 AM to 3 PM; closed Tuesday and Sunday.
Each client is served one-on-one, with each step explained and an aim to protect natural nails while achieving the desired look.
