A mini manicure and nail tidy up with coloured gel polish of your choice.

Extra: option to add nail art and gems to finish your nails and make them that extra bit sassy.
Times are estimated/rough guide - all depends on your nail health and what nail art you want. This can be discussed before your appointment via Instagram DMs or at the start of your appointment on the da.

*I'm happy for you to come with blank acrylic nails for me to apply gel polish too. Please be mindful I'm unable to infill or remove acrylic as I don't offer this as a treatment.

Keeping it clean and simple with one or two colours across all your nails. 

Plain Gel Polish

Removal of existing gel and nail tidy up.
Reapplication of new gel polish finished with a top coat.

I do offer hema free gel polish, query on the day or drop me a message.

Gel Removal + Reapplied Gel Polish 

Soak off gel removal and a nail tidy up, this is recommended to be done every 2-3 weeks depending on your nail growth.

Gel Removal 

This treatment includes:
- filing back the top coat and buffering the nails to be smooth to reapply builder gel, to support your nail regrowth. Finished with a basic gel colour of your choice, or keep it clean with just a clear/nude builder gel.
- optional to add extras such as minimal or signature nail art and gems

Please note I do not remove builder gel applied someone else without a consent form completed in advance, please message me on instagram about this.

Nor do I infill builder gel that hasn’t been applied by me. This is due to me not knowing what products have been used and I do not want to risk causing any damage to your nails or cause a reaction/irritation. Please book for a Removal and fresh set. 

2 week infill & rebalance 

I will file back and clean up your nails, reapply builder gel in the regrowth area to help build up the strength in your nails.

3 week infill & rebalance 

4 week infill & rebalance 

Removal of my builder gel work and application new builder gel - perfect for those that have gone more than 5 weeks without an infill or needing to trial run a different formula of builder gel

Builder Gel Removal & Reapplication

Please note I do not remove other people’s builder gel work, without a consent form completed before your appointment.

Builder Gel Removal 

Mini manicure, indepth nail prep finished with clear/nude builder gel (BIAB) and topped with gel polish (optional extra).

For extra you can add nail art and gems - send me your inspo pics via instagram do we can come up with a plan to bring your nail ideas and dreams to life!

*Please note the length of the appointment is a guide and rough estimate. This will vary depending on your nail health, length and chosen nail art.

Mini manicure included, nail prep and application of nude builder gel. I have a collection of different nude tones to compliment your skin tones. 

I use nail order products. 

Nail Order full cover tips are made from soft gel rather than ABS plastic, this gives added strength whilst also being able to be soaked off as well as infilled with builder gel to support natural nail growth.

This treatment is perfect for those that want long nails straight away, but the benfits of builder gel.

This treatment requires commitment, meaning regular infills are required to maintain nails health and insuring enough strength is in place to maintain the nails to avoid breakages. Infills are recommended every 2-3 weeks with the max of 2 infills before a soak off and fresh set needs to be applied (does vary from each person) 

Please note if you’re wishing to book this service with nail art you may not see my availability to book - please drop me a message on Instagram or request to be added to the waiting list and I’ll book you in on my side.
