Things to keep in mind
- We don’t do extensions or work over acrylic or SNS — Our entire manicure menu is focused on natural nail health. We do not offer tips or extensions, and we do not remove or work over acrylic or SNS products.
- Removal from another salon — If you have existing gel polish applied at another salon, a $30 removal fee applies. Please add this to your appointment when booking. We do not remove acrylic or SNS.
- Running late? — If you are more than 10 minutes late to your appointment, we may not be able to complete your full service and your appointment may need to be rebooked. The full service fee will still apply.
- Not happy with your nails? — Please speak up before you leave. We genuinely want you to love your result and will always do our best to make it right while you’re with us. Once you’ve left the salon, we’re unable to make adjustments.
- Chipping and lifting — Gel manicures are designed to last up to two weeks with proper care. Chipping or lifting that occurs as a result of the application will be repaired complimentarily within 5 days of your appointment. This does not cover damage caused by excessive force, picking, biting, or improper aftercare.
To extend the life of your manicure: apply cuticle oil daily, wear gloves when cleaning or washing dishes, avoid using your nails as tools, and keep your hands moisturised.
