Best manicure I’ve ever had. It’s been a month now and aside from my nails (obviously) growing out, the polish is still pristine. I got white nail art done on a natural base colour with Biogel. 110% recommend.

This was the best spray tan I have ever had. She was sure to put barrier cream on my nails, hands, knees, and elbows and then blended in the colour afterwards so you I wouldn’t have strange colours in places. She is completely professional with high standards and has perfected a system so the treatment is fast and efficient with flawless results. The colour is also very natural and I look how I would at the end of the summer. She customized the depth of tan according to my skin tone.

Maricar is a fantastic nail tech. She did my wedding nails and helped me come up with the perfect colours and design. She also fixed one of my nails that had broken pretty far down the nail bed. I love that all the products are vegan. The only nail salon I'll go to in Vancouver!

I love getting my nails done by Jennie. She always does a perfect job! I couldn’t imagine going anywhere else to get my gel manicure. They are also very reasonably priced too!

Jane knows her stuff! My finger nails had become very thin and actually hurt so I had to give it a rest for about 2.5 months! I mentioned this to Jane when I saw her and she advised me on how best to take keep them healthy, which product, which type of gel manicure.. I like gel, etc. I feel confident that she does her service to her clients with care and not just because.. Thank you Jane!

I had a great experience at Sunday Beauty. The space is clean and quiet, different from the usual busy salon experience. Catherine is meticulous in her work and as a result my nails looked great! She’s also friendly and I had an enjoyable time chatting with her throughout the appointment. I will definitely be going back!

Gel Nails FAQs
Gel nails cost between $10 and $85 in South Main.
Once you’ve had gel nails applied, they should remain chip-free for between 2-3 weeks.
Although gel manicures look beautiful, they can cause your natural nails to become brittle. The American Academy of Dermatology reports that repeated use of gel nails can increase the risk of skin cancer and the premature ageing of skin on the hands.
Gel and shellac nails both cure under UV light, but their composition is different. Gel nail polish is a lacquer made from acrylic monomers and oligomers; shellac polish is part gel, part regular nail polish, and is a patented brand by Creative Nail Design (CND). Both give a high shine and long-lasting finish.
Gel nails tend to give a more natural and glossier finish than acrylic nails; they are cured under a UV lamp and last for around 2 weeks. Acrylic nails are stronger than gels and start to cure as soon as they’re exposed to air; they generally last for 6-8 weeks but will need fills after 2 weeks to hide regrowth. Both can be used to lengthen nails and both can damage your natural nails.
Once every 2 weeks. Gel nails cure (harden) in UV light; this means they continue to cure in natural sunlight. The longer you keep your polish on, the longer it cures and the harder it is to remove. To reduce the risk of stripping and damaging your nails, it’s recommended that you book in with an experienced nail technician to remove and redo your gel nail polish every 2 weeks.
