Important Considerations Before Booking Nail Art:
Limitations & Feasibility
While we love getting creative, the possibilities for nail art can depend on factors like the length and condition of your natural nails, and the specific nail system you've chosen (e.g., very elaborate 3D art might be better suited to Hard Gel/Acrygel than a thinner Gel Polish layer). Consult First: If you have a specific or complex design in mind, please contact me before your appointment (ideally with photos) to discuss feasibility. I have extensive skills, but not everything is possible, and consultation ensures we're on the same page.
Booking Extra Time is ESSENTIAL
Nail art takes additional time beyond the standard manicure or enhancement service. You MUST book dedicated 'Nail Art' time when scheduling your appointment if you want any design, including French or Baby Boomer. Failure to book this extra time means we will unfortunately NOT have sufficient time to perform any nail art, even simple requests, due to our schedule. Please select the Nail Art add-on or mention it explicitly when booking.
"Simple" Design ≠ Simple Technique
Keep in mind that a design that looks visually simple (like clean lines, small characters, or precise geometric shapes) may still require intricate, time-consuming freehand techniques. The complexity lies in the execution, not always the visual outcome.
Nail Art Pricing:
Nail art is priced as an add-on, reflecting the extra time, skill, and materials used. The cost is influenced by:
Factors Influencing Price:
- Time & Complexity:More detailed work takes longer.
- Materials:Specialty items like chromes or crystals affect the price.
- Technique:As mentioned, precise freehand work, even if visually simple, requires significant skill and time.
We typically price art per nail, by complexity tier, or based on time for highly custom work. Specific embellishments may have add-on costs.
We will always confirm the final price with you during consultation before starting the art, provided the necessary time has been booked.
