Nail art
From a single decorated nail to a complex design across all ten. It goes on top of the manicure you have already booked, and the appointment grows with the design you choose.
Nail art levels and prices
Nail art, single nail
€1.90One decorated nail with the rest in flat colour. It is the most discreet way to wear a design, and the most practical: if you tire of it, it is one nail. Five minutes. Priced per nail, so you can have two or three spread across both hands.
Simple nail art
€4.90A single dot on each nail. It sounds like nothing and changes a good deal: it breaks up flat colour without leaving the sober register, and works as well on nudes as on darks. Ten minutes. It lasts as long as the polish beneath it, protected by the same top coat.
Medium nail art
€8.90The middle level: coloured French tips, a different colour on each nail, glazed or pearl finishes. These change the whole hand without a drawing being involved. Twenty minutes. If you have a reference, bring it: deciding from a photo is far quicker than describing it.
Complex nail art
€20.90A design built by hand, with or without good stickers. This is the level for asking for something specific: a motif, a mix of textures, work that runs across several nails. Three quarters of an hour. Tell us when you book so the appointment is long enough.

Nail art FAQs
How much does it cost to add decoration to my manicure?
From €1.90 for a single nail. Simple decoration, a dot on each nail, is €4.90; medium, €8.90; complex, €20.90. It is added to the price of your manicure.
Can I bring my own nail art design?
Yes, and it helps a lot. Bring it on your phone and we will look at it before starting: we will tell you whether it fits in the time booked or whether it is worth adding it to the appointment.
Does the decoration last as long as the polish?
Yes, it is protected by the same top coat as the colour, so it lasts exactly as long as the polish underneath.
Do I need to book extra time for nail art?
5 min for one nail, 10 min for simple decoration, 20 min for medium and 45 min for complex. Mention it when you book and we will add it to the service time.
What does medium decoration include?
Coloured French tips, one nail in each colour, glazed or pearl finishes. It is the level where the design shows without leaving a refined look behind.
Can I decorate just one nail?
Yes, and it is the most requested option. €1.90 per nail, with the rest in a plain colour. If you get tired of it, it is only one nail.
Do you do designs on short nails?
Yes. Length changes which designs look best, not whether they can be done. On short nails, block colour, glazed finishes and fine French tips work better than a highly detailed drawing.
