Overview
What to expect.
Nails are what we're known for. We do gel and acrylic extensions, builder gel overlays and detailed art: chrome French tips, pearls, gold charms, 3D flowers and freehand line work.
We start by looking at your natural nails and asking about your routine, then recommend the length and shape that will suit you and wear well, whether that's square, almond, coffin or stiletto.
About pricing: Final price depends on length, shape and how detailed the art is. Plain gel and simple French sets cost less.
