About

Tipsandtea works from its Main Street location in West Orange and keeps long weekday and Saturday hours, with shorter hours on Sunday. Clients who prefer not to travel can book house calls instead.

Nail design is the focus. The business describes its nail work as specializing in designs and encapsulation, and its portfolio shows encapsulated nails, freestyle, French, airbrush, chrome, 3D and winter sets in a variety of shapes and lengths. Designs can be short and simple or more elaborate.

The menu covers acrylic fill-ins and full sets, Gel X extensions, overlays, extension cut-downs and professional removal, along with manicures, a gel spa pedicure and polygel toenail replacement. Freestyle sets can mix hand-drawn designs, rhinestones, chrome finishes, 3D art and stickers, and every freestyle appointment includes a complimentary hand scrub. A children's manicure and a mother-and-child French set are also offered.

Tipsandtea runs a nail class that comes with a kit and covers nail art techniques and current trends; it requires a $50 deposit. For in-person bookings from $50 to $4,000, a pay-over-time option is available, but clients must be approved before their appointment. A 25% cancellation fee and a $15 late fee apply, and clients who cannot attend are asked to tell the business as soon as possible so they can reschedule.

Tipsandtea centers its work on nail design and encapsulation, offering everything from short, simple designs to more detailed ones.
