Toxic Claws By Gemini

Toxic Claws By Gemini is a nail studio at 3939 W 69th St, Suite #24, in Edina, Minnesota. Hours vary by day, with several evenings open late and Wednesday closing at noon.

Nail services range from a traditional manicure to a Russian manicure, a detailed dry e-file service focused on cuticles and nails. Rubber base gel adds strength to natural nails and includes one solid color, and Gel-X soft gel tips add length and shape at any length. Structured gel overlays are offered for new clients, for a two-week fill within 14 to 17 days, and for a new set with a maximum three to four week rebalance. Nail art is priced in four tiers, from simple french tips, lines and solid chrome up to sculpted and heavy bling designs. Shape changes and nail repair are also available, with repair priced by the number of nails needing work.

Pedicures run from a traditional dry option with cuticle clean-up and polish to a dry Russian pedicure with e-file care, callus removal, a foot scrub and light massage. Extreme callus care is an intensive dry treatment for severe, thick calluses. A renewing wet pedicure includes an antifungal foot-odor soak and a eucalyptus scrub. For toes, builder gel extensions can be added to the big toes or all ten toes alongside a complete pedicure, and advanced toenail care deep-cleans thick, damaged or discolored nails. Toenail reconstruction is done at extra cost only when the client's podiatrist has cleared it. Luxury add-ons with scrub, warm towels, massage and hot stones are priced from $15 to $30.

Gel overlay removal has three options: a 2 to 4 week removal for work done by the studio, a complete removal that files away as much product as possible, and a foreign removal for overlays applied by another technician. Soak-off removes gel polish, acrylic, gel X or MMA. Eyelash extension removal uses a professional remover and does not include a new set, and lashes applied elsewhere are welcome. Eyelash model work is done by a licensed beginner lash artist and requires clean lashes, no eye makeup and two to three hours of stillness, with photos and videos taken for the portfolio and social media.

Deposits are non-refundable, though one deposit can be moved once for illness or emergency if notice is given before the appointment. Cancellations and no-shows are charged the full service total. Children and guests need advance approval. Late arrivals can call 657-313-0069, and late and squeeze-in fees apply as listed.

Services are shaped around the condition of the natural nails, and repairs are declined where there is severe damage, lifting, discoloration, open wounds or possible infection.
