A playful gel manicure built on a sheer nude base with evenly placed dot accents. The design feels clean and graphic while allowing the natural shape and length of the nails to remain the focus.

How long does Polka Dot Manicure take?

What is included in the Polka Dot Manicure price?

The appointment includes gel polish removal when needed, detailed dry cuticle care, nail shaping, gel polish application, polka-dot design, finishing cuticle oil and hand cream. The current starting price is $120; selected additions are confirmed separately in Square.

Can I add a design or another treatment?

Yes. Optional additions can be selected when appropriate. Square shows the current choices and final price before you confirm.

Do I need to remove existing product before my appointment?

Removal is included only as described in the included-care list above. Tell us what product is currently on your nails when booking so Maria can confirm whether extra removal time or a separate charge applies.

How should I prepare before the visit?

Please do not cut your cuticles before the appointment. When booking, mention existing product, repairs, sensitivity, added length, or any concern you want Maria to review at the start of the service.

How can I help the result last after my visit?

Use cuticle oil daily, wear gloves for household work, and avoid picking the product or using your nails as tools. Maria can recommend the right maintenance timing after seeing your natural nail growth.
