FAQ

Frequently asked questions

If your question is not here, call 027 772 3612 and we will talk it through.

How long does a gel manicure last?

With normal wear, two to three weeks of chip-resistant shine is typical. How you use your hands matters: lots of water, cleaning products or typing hard on nail tips shortens the run. A fresh set every few weeks keeps them looking intentional rather than grown out.

Does gel polish damage your nails?

Not when it is applied and removed properly, which is the part that matters. Damage almost always comes from peeling or picking gel off, which takes layers of the natural nail with it. We apply carefully, remove gently, and will never rush that step.

How should I remove gel polish?

Please do not peel it. Come in and we will soak it off properly, protecting the natural nail underneath. If you are removing it at home, wrap with acetone and foil and give it time, then buff lightly. Picking it off undoes weeks of nail health in a minute.

Do you do pedicures?

Yes. Pedicures are one of the most loved services here, from a tidy-up and polish through to gel toes that last for weeks. It is as much about the care and the sit-down as the colour.

Can I bring a photo of the nails I want?

Please do, photos are the best brief. Nail art, a shape you love, a colour you saw somewhere: bring it in and we will tell you honestly how it will translate to your nails and what will suit your hands.

How often should I get my brows done?

Most people rebook brow shaping every three to four weeks, which keeps the shape crisp without overworking the hairs. Tint softens over a similar window. We will suggest a rhythm that fits how fast your brows grow.

My nails are weak or bitten. Can you still work with them?

Yes, and you will not be judged. Short and damaged nails are exactly where good nail care starts. We will choose products that protect what you have, keep everything gentle, and help your nails get stronger set by set.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

Plans change, we get it. Just give us as much notice as you can, ideally twenty four hours, so the time can go to someone else. A quick message is all it takes and we will find you a new spot.
