About

The Nail Architect is a nail, hand and feet, and hair services business on Greenfield Road in Detroit. Its menu covers nail enhancements, manicures and pedicures, hair washing and retwisting, removal, repairs and a set of add-ons.

The business describes its mission as creating a comfortable, safe space for clients, with infection control as its central goal. It states that hand and feet services are provided by a licensed professional who looks after the whole client.

Nail enhancements include the Gel X system, acrylics, gel sets, gel set fill-ins and short natural-length nails, which the salon lists as shorties. Polish is included in several of these, while nail designs are charged separately. Acrylic fill-ins are priced according to the work needed.

Manicures include cuticle pushing and trimming, shaping, buffing and cleansing, with polish included and designs extra. The American pedicure takes about an hour and includes cleansing, scrubbing and a massage, with timing adjusted to individual needs. A mini pedicure is a shorter option where toes are cleaned and polished.

Soak-off removal uses acetone, and the time it takes depends on nail thickness and the product used. Art work can be based on a client's own image or on the stylist's design. Repairs are priced by the issue, and a cuticle oil pen is available as a $3 add-on.

The salon also lists a state board preparation class, offered for $200 for the class alone or $500 with a kit, running about four and a half hours. New clients can book a free consultation of about 15 minutes before their first service.

The salon's approach centres on a comfortable, safe setting with infection control as the priority, and on hand and feet work delivered by a licensed professional.
