Electric Love Nails

Salon de manichiura

Loved Kara's healthy nails first approach and her super gentle minimal acetone removal of gel polish. She is meticulous and has real attention to detail even for the boring clients like me who only want a gel manicure (no art!). 

Amazing, always love coming here and getting a fresh set of nails! 

Kara always does such an amazing job! It’s so cool to be able to come to this lil space and get my nails done when I used to get them done in her house! I never worry about the quality of the service and originality of design when I get my nails done with Kara and I’ll keep coming back! Book in while you still can!!! 

This service is for clients whose last Builder Gel set is still in good condition with minimal lifting or damage. In this service I file down the existing product and reapply builder gel incorporating the new nail growth into the structure I create. This service includes a dry manicure and is finished with a gel polish of your choice and nourishing cuticle oil.
A removal booking is not required with this service as the filing time and cost are already factored in.
Select a nail-art option when booking for extra-cute nails! If you have fun ideas for your nail art, please send them through to me via email or instagram DM so we can make sure you’ve booked the level of art to match the time we will need to fulfil your nail art dreams! If you’re not sure what you want, that’s okay, we can work it out on the day!

Builder Gel Rebalance/Refill

This service includes a dry manicure with builder gel applied to the natural nail to create structure and strength. Builder gel can be used for short extensions to even out nail lengths.* The service is finished with a gel polish colour of your choice and nourishing cuticle oil.

Builder Gel Manicure

This service is for the removal of gel polish on natural nails only. In this service I gently file off the top layer of gel polish before soaking your nails in an acetone-based soak-off mix and gently pushing off the product with a cuticle pusher.

Removal only - select this option if you only want your gel polish removed - this service is finished with an express manicure and nourishing cuticle oil

Add-on to another service - select this option alongside any gel polish, builder gel or hard gel service to have your gel polish removed before application

Gel Polish Manicure

Recomandate

Removal of Hard Gel or Builder Gel nail enhancements.

Please note: Hard Gel is unable to be soaked off of nails. If you no longer want your Hard Gel enhancements, the product is filed down to a very thin layer and grown out. You may like to book a Gel Polish Manicure alongside this service if you do not like the look of a thin layer of clear gel on your nail.

Removal only - select this option if you only want your Hard Gel or Builder Gel nail enhancements removed - this service is finished with an express manicure and nourishing cuticle oil

Add-on to another service - select this option alongside any Gel Polish, Builder Gel or Hard Gel service to have your Hard Gel or Builder Gel removed before application. If you want to continue with the same type of enhancement and have minimal lifting or damage to your current enhancements, simply book for a rebalance/refill rather than removal

Hard Gel or Builder Gel Removal

Product Removals

This service includes a dry manicure with hard gel applied to the natural nail to create structure and strength. Hard gel is a stronger and more durable product than builder gel. If you are unsure which product is best for you, book in either and we can assess this on the day.

Hard Gel Overlay

This service begins with a dry manicure. I then sculpt nail extensions onto your natural nails using paper moulds called forms. This gives me the ability to sculpt the right shape and curve to grow with your natural nail. With hard gel we can make your extensions as long as you would like and in any nail shape you would like. This service is finished with a gel polish colour of your choice and nourishing cuticle oil.
