Nail Services – Frequently Asked Questions

1. How often should I get a manicure or pedicure?
Most clients return every 2–3 weeks to maintain healthy nails and long-lasting polish.

2. What’s the difference between gel and regular polish?
Gel polish is cured under UV or LED light, lasts longer, and is chip-resistant. Regular polish air-dries and usually lasts about a week.

3. Can I bring my own polish?
Yes, you're welcome to bring your own polish if you prefer a specific color or brand.

4. Is it safe to get nail services while pregnant?
Yes, we use non-toxic products and ensure proper ventilation. However, always consult your doctor for personal health concerns.

5. How do I keep my nails strong between visits?
Use cuticle oil, wear gloves when cleaning, and avoid using your nails as tools.

6. What’s the difference between acrylic, dipping powder, and gel nails?
Acrylic is a liquid-and-powder mixture, dipping uses adhesive and powder layers, and gel is a soft or hard product cured with light. Each has different strengths and finish.

7. Can you repair a broken nail?
Yes, we offer nail repair services for cracks, splits, or breaks using gel or acrylic.

8. Are your tools sterilized between each client?
Absolutely. We follow strict sanitation protocols and sterilize tools using hospital-grade disinfectants.

9. How long do gel nails last?
Gel nails typically last 2–3 weeks depending on nail growth and daily activity.

10. Do you offer nail art or custom designs?
Yes, we specialize in hand-painted nail art, seasonal designs, and custom patterns.

11. Will gel or acrylic damage my natural nails?
Not when applied and removed correctly by trained professionals. Damage often occurs with improper DIY removal.

12. Can I remove gel or acrylic nails at home?
It’s possible, but we recommend professional removal to avoid damage to the natural nail.

13. What is a paraffin treatment and what are its benefits?
It’s a warm wax treatment that deeply moisturizes hands or feet, softens skin, and soothes joints.

14. Do you offer manicures for men or children?
Yes, we provide services for everyone, including children and men, with tailored options.

15. What should I do if I notice an infection or irritation after service?
Contact us immediately. We’ll assess the issue and recommend next steps. Your safety is our priority.

Waxing – Frequently Asked Questions

16. How long does my hair need to be for waxing?
Hair should be at least ¼ inch (about the size of a grain of rice) for best results.

17. Is waxing painful?
There may be some discomfort, especially during the first visit, but it becomes more tolerable with consistent waxing.

18. How often should I get waxed?
Every 3–5 weeks is ideal, depending on your hair growth cycle.

19. Can I wax during my menstrual cycle?
Yes, but you may experience increased sensitivity. Please wear a tampon if receiving a bikini wax.

20. Is waxing safe for sensitive skin?
Yes, we offer gentle wax formulas and take precautions for sensitive skin types.

21. What’s the difference between bikini, Brazilian, and full bikini waxing?
Bikini removes hair outside the underwear line, Brazilian removes all or nearly all pubic hair, and full bikini is a more customized shape.

22. Can I shave between waxing appointments?
We recommend against it. Shaving disrupts the hair growth cycle and can make your next wax more painful.

23. What should I do before my waxing appointment?
Exfoliate gently 24 hours before, avoid sun exposure, and don’t apply lotions or oils before your service.

24. Are there any aftercare instructions?
Avoid hot showers, workouts, tanning, and exfoliation for at least 24 hours. Use soothing products if needed.

25. Is there an age limit for waxing?
Parental consent is required for minors. We welcome clients of all ages with appropriate care.

26. Can I get waxed if I’m pregnant?
Yes, many clients continue waxing during pregnancy. Let us know, and we’ll make sure you’re comfortable.

27. Will waxing make my hair grow back thicker or darker?
No, waxing tends to make regrowth finer and softer over time.

28. Can waxing cause ingrown hairs?
It can, especially with tight clothing or lack of exfoliation. We provide advice and products to prevent this.

29. Do you use hard wax or soft wax?
We use both, depending on the treatment area and your skin type.

30. Is it okay to wax if I’m on acne or retinol medication?
Some medications can thin the skin, so waxing may not be advised. Please let us know about any prescriptions during your consultation.

Eyelash Extensions – Frequently Asked Questions

31. How long do eyelash extensions last?
Typically 2–4 weeks, with refills recommended every 2–3 weeks for best maintenance.

32. Are eyelash extensions safe?
Yes, when applied by a trained professional using quality adhesives and products.

33. Can I wear mascara with eyelash extensions?
It’s best to avoid mascara, especially waterproof formulas. They can weaken the adhesive and cause lashes to fall out.

34. How do I care for my lash extensions?
Avoid oil-based products, don’t rub your eyes, and clean lashes gently with a lash-safe cleanser.

35. Can I swim or shower with lash extensions?
Yes, but avoid water for the first 24 hours after application. After that, brief exposure to water is fine.

36. Do lash extensions damage natural lashes?
Not when applied properly. We isolate each natural lash to avoid clumping or stress on your natural lash line.

37. What types of lash styles do you offer?
We offer classic, hybrid, volume, and mega volume styles, customizable by length, curl, and density.

38. What should I do before my lash appointment?
Arrive with clean lashes—no makeup, oils, or moisturizers. Avoid caffeine for better relaxation.

39. Can I get lash extensions if I wear contact lenses?
Yes, but we recommend removing your contacts before the appointment for comfort during the service.

40. Do you offer lash removal services?
Yes. We professionally remove extensions using a gentle adhesive remover to protect your natural lashes.
