  • I always enjoy getting my nails done at Lilly-Mai Salon. The space is clean, tidy, and beautifully maintained, which makes every visit feel relaxing and special. Angie works with such joy and care — her attention to detail and eye for perfection truly show in the results. The atmosphere is calm and welcoming, with soft music playing in the background that adds to the peaceful vibe. It’s more than just a nail appointment — it’s a lovely experience every time

  • Angie has been doing my nails for 5 months now and each time I visit, I am always met with a smile and eagerness to get going. Getting to know Angie better, she truly has a passion for nails and providing a safe, cosy and beautifully warm and welcoming space for her clients to just relax while they are pampered. Angie is a patient professional whose care for her client really shines through, never rushing and never frustrated especially with an indecisive client like me. She always ensures the client is happy. Thank you, Angie, for your wonderful service!

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.

Nail technicians tend to start a manicure with a warm water hand soak, which 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.

If you like soft hands and beautiful nails, you’ll love getting a manicure. Regular manicures can be very relaxing; they help prevent fungal nail infections and leave your nails looking polished and pristine.

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.

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 manicure you choose, but the average price of a manicure in Recreation is ZAR 120.
