Nail services we offer

Every set starts with proper nail prep and cuticle care, because that is what decides whether the finish lifts in a week or holds for weeks.

  • Gel polish and manicure for a long lasting, chip resistant, high gloss finish
  • Gel polish and pedicure to keep toes tidy and colour holding through the season
  • Builder gel and manicure to strengthen and protect natural nails
  • Gel extensions and manicure for added length and shape
  • Infill and maintenance to keep an existing set looking fresh

Nails and hair in one visit

Because we are a hair and nail salon under one roof, you can pair a curly cut, colour or treatment with a manicure and leave with both done. Mention it when you book so we allow the time.
