Nail art is an additional service added to a manicure with natural nails or nail extensions/tips. When you book your manicure request Level 1, 2 or 3 Nail Art (use the booklet as a guide).

Level 1 adds about 15 minutes to a manicure appointment, Level 2, approximately 30 minutes to your appointment, and a Level 3 can add up to an additional hour. The cost of a nail art will be confirmed by me during your appointment, or you can make an inquiry using What's App. Please keep in mind that nail art is a form of fine art, no one piece of art is the exactly the same. Nail art is also effected by length and shape of your nails. Result always varies. Download my Nail Art Guide which shows latest trends and levels of nail art.

Absolutely. I love doing nail art on children because they have such fun ideas. I do not recommend extensions for children simply because they are hard on their nails and will not last. Book a manicure with level 1 nail art and they will experience my pamper power!

Nail art is applied to natural nails or a gel extensions. 3-4 weeks is typical retention for extensions, but can vary depending on how fast your nails grow. The art will outlast the nail typically as long as you practice good nail care and are not finding your hands in a lot of water.

No. Gel is a liquid nail manicure system that has a base coating, color polish, and a final protective coat. Each step is cured under UV light. There is no odor with the Gel system. Removal is fast with an acetone soak. Gel X is short for Gel Extension and are light weight comfortable nail extensions for those who desire longer nails. The flexible extensions/tips are pre-formed nail shapes fitted to the nail. Gel extensions have natural feel and are alternative to acrylic or dip manicures.

One big reason, it stinks! The monomer which liquifies the powder is what give classic nails shops that strong chemical smell. It's why I love my salon because it does not have that chemical smell do to the use of Gel products. For my health and your health, I tend to steer clear of DIP chemicals and fine powders. Using high quality Gel brands allows for long lasting nails making it a great alternative with out the harsh chemicals. If you really want DIP, I can do it for you, but Gel is my preferred product.

Luminary is a fabulous gel system that's perfect for natural nails, giving the natural nail both strength and flexibility.

The frequency of fills or new sets depends on how fast your nails grow, which varies from person to person. If your nails grow quickly, you may need a fill every 1.5 to 2.5 weeks and a soak-off or new set after every 3-5 fills. If your nails grow more slowly, you can typically wait 3 to 6 weeks before needing a fill, soak-off, or new set.
