It describes its aim as a relaxing, low-stress visit and says its design is luxurious and carefully detailed.

Manicures are finished with gel polish applied under the cuticle for longer wear. The menu also includes a regular manicure, a gel manicure, deep Russian manicures in regular or gel polish, and a hard gel Russian manicure. The Russian manicure is a dry service: nails are filed and cuticles are removed with electric drill bits, then finished with regular polish.

Pedicures range from a basic pedicure with regular polish or a hygienic finish to gel pedicures and SPA pedicures. The SPA pedicure includes salt soaking, nail shaping, cuticle care, foot filing, a foot massage, a mask and a scrub. The SMART pedicure is a dry procedure for the skin of the feet and toes that uses no oils, creams or water, and the salon offers it for calluses and ingrown toenails.

For extensions, the salon offers Gel-X, acrylic and hard gel in short, medium, long and extra long lengths. Gel-X is a press-on nail that is cured like gel, and the website says it can last two to four weeks. Nail art includes custom designs, hand-painted designs, stamping, stickers, chrome powder and French tips. Gel polish and regular polish changes, nail repairs and removal of gel, DIP, acrylic, Gel-X and hard gel are also available.

The salon accepts walk-ins, though appointments take priority and walk-in guests may wait longer. Clients can book online through a Vagaro page and may request a preferred technician. The salon asks clients to arrive about 10 minutes early for paperwork and holds late arrivals for 15 minutes before the slot may go to another guest. Cancellations need at least 24 hours notice, and no-shows are charged. The entire salon can also be rented for a private party with customizable packages and music, where group or event payments are refundable only with 3 days notice.

Services can be tailored to client preferences, and clients are invited to raise concerns during the visit. The salon says it strictly follows disinfection protocols and that tools are sterilized before each client.

The room is decorated with fairy lights and floral accents and has comfortable lounge chairs.
