Good to know
- What happens during the appointment?
- Your technician trims and files each nail to the shape you ask for, tends to the cuticles, and smooths the nail surface so colour sits evenly. A light hand massage follows, then a warm towel wrap. You finish with a high-gloss buff, a classic polish, or a gel upgrade cured under UV or LED light.
- Is it the right manicure for me?
- This is the everyday option, and the one most guests book when their nails are already healthy and simply need tidying. It is performed on your natural nails only, with no tips, extensions or sculpting, so nothing is bonded to the nail plate and nothing has to be filed off at your next visit. If you would like a longer massage, a paraffin dip, or a scrub and mask, the Deluxe and Spoil Me manicures build on this same foundation.
- How long does it last?
- A classic polish finish holds up for several days of normal wear. The gel upgrade lasts considerably longer, typically two to three weeks, and should be soaked off rather than peeled. Every tool is sanitised between guests, and the service is performed by a licensed technician.
