Japanese Manicure
An ancient Japanese technique, it buffs nutrients deep into your nail bed to make your nails super healthy so that they shine on their own without the need for a drop of polish.
The process of a Japanese Manicure:
Cleaning and shaping of your nails. Treatment of cuticles. Buffing and smoothing the nail plate. Applying beeswax paste. Final polishing with talc powder. Hand cream and cuticle oil.
Shellac / Gel polish
The Shellac / Gel polish manicure treatment will give you smudge-proof nail colour that lasts for weeks without chipping. Shellac or Gel polish is a hybrid as it is a blend of gel and nail polish. Because it is like a polish, it can’t be used to extend your nail. Because it is like a gel, however, it adds strength and durability. In the long term, Shellac and Gel polish are much less damaging to nails than traditional Gels (or Acrylics). The main benefit is that it reduces chipping.
The process of a Shellac / Gel polish Manicure:
Cleaning and shaping of your nails. Treatment of cuticles. Buffing your nails. Applying base gel. Curing with LED lamp. Applying a thin layer of Shellac / Gel polish. Let it set. Applying a second layer of Shellac / Gel polish. Let it set again. Top coat. Let it set finally. Treatment of cuticles.
Acrylic
A mixture of liquid monomer and a powder polymer, which when combined form a hard protective layer that is sculpted over your natural nails. Acrylic nail extensions will only become hard when exposed to air. When the process is complete, the nails become a strong and glossy base that is fantastic for colour application. It’s durable and can last a long time. We don’t do acrylic as we feel that gel is a lot more versatile, there’s no bad smell involved and overall, it does the job perfectly.
Gel
A special mixture applied either on top of an artificial nail extension, or directly onto the natural nail bed to strengthen nails and promote natural growth. The gel is usually applied in very fine layers, ‘curing’ the gel with a UV light between each layer, so that the finished result is hard but still flexible with a natural looking glossy finish which is both instantly dry and chip resistant.
Gel can be applied on top of an artificial extension to add length. They are particularly good for individuals who have very short, weak or bitten nails because they allow the nail to strengthen and grow below the layer of gel.
– Does not cause damage to the natural nail and can be used to strengthen, protect and promote growth in the natural nail.
– Odourless and more flexible.
– Gel is considered to be a safer and more environmentally friendly option to acrylics.
Nail Extensions
When you want to add length to your nails, we would use this technique. A form will be customized to the required shape, which will then be fitted just beneath the edge and finally a layer overlay of gel or acrylic will be added and sculpted on it. Length will be then customized according to your request.
We do not use tips as we think they are not as comfortable as bespoke sculpted extensions that are made to match each of your nails.
Nail infill
Filling in grown out gaps in between cuticle and acrylic/gel. Fingernails grow at an average rate of 3mm/month and the beautiful designs done will be pushed downwards, hence infills are done by filling in this gap in between to cover up the grown out section and then applying an overlay to create an even finish.
Pedicure

Starting with a therapeutic foot spa, your feet are soaked and cleansed to soften the skin – like a mini-Jacuzzi for your feet. An exfoliating rub will slough off dead skin with salts or minerals. Your pedicurist will remove your cuticles and cut and shape your toe nails. Creams and aromatherapy oils are massaged into your feet to refresh and soften your skin. Result: Your feet will look as well as feel naturally fantastic.
Shellac / Gel polish Pedicure
Again, a very thorough and highly professional pedicure service followed by applying shellac on your toes, curing it under UV light and making it durable and resistant. Choose one colour or go with the beautiful French style shellac / gel polish: pink on the nail bed and white at the tips.
