Ideal if you value speed, clean lines and a colour that complements your skin tone. ### Duration & Appointment Timing The service is 30 minutes. Please arrive with bare nails, as removal is not included. If you currently have gel or enhancements, book removal separately to keep timings accurate. For same day events, allow a couple of hours after your visit for regular polish to fully harden before heavy activity. ### Aftercare & Maintenance Keep hands dry and avoid heat or oil based products for two to three hours while the polish cures. Wear gloves for chores, apply cuticle oil daily, and top up with clear top coat every two to three days to maintain gloss. Use hand cream with SPF to protect colour clarity. Rebook every two to three weeks or sooner if you prefer shorter lengths.

If you have gel or enhancements, please book a removal service first so we can keep your finish and timing on point. How long will the polish last? With careful aftercare and a top coat refresh every two to three days, regular polish typically looks fresh for five to seven days, depending on lifestyle and nail condition. Can I choose any nail shape and colour? Yes. We map a shape that suits your hands and select a colour that complements your skin tone. Classic nudes, reds and seasonal shades are available. Is a patch test required for this service? No patch test is required for a standard manicure with regular polish. If you have known acrylate or adhesive sensitivities, let us know during consultation. How soon can I use my hands after the appointment? Polish is touch dry before you leave, but it continues to cure for several hours. Avoid heat, water and oil based products for two to three hours to reduce scuffs or dents.
