My skin has improved so much since visiting Meraki on several occasions and following their skincare plan. The service is outstanding, I would highly recommend the facials, manicures and massages!

I had a massage, peel and manicure. The massage was amazing! Yoscha knew exactly which areas to focus on and the pressure she applied was on point! Maxine was very informative. I felt some sensitivity around my eye area before I arrived, she suggested the add-on algae mask to my azelan peel and it worked just great! Sensitivity and irritation disappeared and it left my skin feeling smooth and soothed! Zanele, did such a great job with my manicure and gelish application even though my nails were a bit brittle! Thank you, Meraki, for a lovely pampering session!

Manicure FAQs
It greatly depends on the type of manicure you go for. Some nail technicians suggest having a manicure once a week, however Shellac, dip powder, acrylic, and gel manicures can last a lot longer. You can leave 2-3 weeks before getting your gel or Shellac manicures filled or redone; wait 3-6 weeks between dip powder manicures; and leave 6-8 weeks before having your acrylic nail manicure redone. If in doubt, ask your technician.
The cost of manicures varies depending on the type you go for; however in Woodstock, you are likely to pay around ZAR 180 for a manicure.
Yes, absolutely. In fact, it’s common, particularly for those using regular nail polish or gel. If you’d like to give it a try, there are various different kits and pieces of equipment available to buy, but we always recommend having a manicure done by a professional to ensure you get the results you want.
Yes. Some types of manicures do carry risks. Cuticles could be infected if they are cut, and you could suffer with dry, weak, or brittle nails if your polish isn’t correctly removed. Ask your nail technician to talk you through the risks before you book your appointment.
Manicurists tend to begin a manicure by soaking your hands in warm water to soften the skin and nails. They then file, buff, and clean the cuticle, massage your hands with a moisturising cream, and apply a base coat of polish, before finishing with a layer of colour, top coat, and cuticle oil. Standard nail polish is left to dry naturally; shellac and gel polishes are cured under a UV lamp; acrylic nails cure in the natural air.
It depends on the type of polish used: traditional nail polish lasts about a week, acrylic nails should last between 6-8 weeks and will need a fill every 2-3 weeks to cover regrowth. Shellac and gel nails last for 2-3 weeks.
It depends on the type of manicure you get. You should allow around 30 minutes for a basic manicure that uses standard nail polish; shellac and gel nail manicures take up to 45 minutes; and acrylic nail manicures take around 90 minutes.
