A beautiful finish.
A considered ritual.

For your natural nail length, start with a European manicure and choose your finish. Clean is for no polish. Regular polish is for colour you can remove at home. Gel / builder gel or hard gel gives longer-lasting colour and a carefully built, balanced nail shape. If you want extra length, choose gel extensions. We can help you choose at your appointment.

For most short to medium natural nails, our standard gel manicure is a good starting point. If your nails are particularly fragile, ask about hard gel for added support. We also tend to recommend hard gel for longer nails, where a stronger structure can help with durability, or before an extended holiday when you need extra wear. Tell us about swimming, outdoor activities and your routine so we can advise. No finish is damage-proof, and gentle aftercare still matters.

Our European manicure focuses on precise cuticle work and a slim, refined profile. Acrylic can feel more rigid and add a fuller-looking structure; it also begins setting as it is applied, giving us a fixed working time. Builder and hard gels let us refine the shape before curing, so we can create strong, balanced support with a natural-looking, lightweight feel and a neat finish near the cuticle. These are the systems we specialise in, so we do not offer acrylic services.
