FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the atmosphere/what does the salon look like?
The atmosphere is casual and relaxed.
I bite my nails, can I still book a treatment?
This depends on the condition of your nails, the length and your own wishes. If your nails are very short or 'bitten', I probably won't put an extension. I prefer to let the nails grow back naturally in their original shape and condition before doing too much with them. Often a manicure and good care and coming back every 2 weeks is best at the beginning. You can always contact me and send a photo for more information.
Can I give a treatment as a gift?
Great! That's possible, just contact us to make an appointment.
Allergies
Lately you hear more about allergies to certain nail products. Just like I became allergic to hair dye, this can also be the case for certain substances in nail products. It is important when applying nails that you know what you are doing, how it works and how to limit risks. I have studied prevention, work accurately and with high-quality products.
Nail damage
I often hear the question whether your nails are not damaged by the products you use. Explained in simple terms; just like nail polish does not damage your nails or make-up, another artificial product does not damage your nails either, provided you work with the right products and work hygienically. The damage is mainly caused by excessive filing, dehydration by too much acetone, but also by picking/pulling off gel polish or by coming back too late for a follow-up treatment.
Why don't you give a 16 year old a guarantee?
From the age of 16 you are welcome to have gel polish/biab applied with the permission of one of your parents and that person may also come with you. At this age, the nails are still growing and due to the hormones your nails contain more oils, which means the gel adheres less well. In addition, behavior/sense of responsibility (age phase) plays a role. Since there is a big chance that they will have nails applied anyway, I prefer it to be done responsibly:-).
Can my friend, child or pet come along?
My preference is that you come to the appointment alone unless you are coming with your daughter as a parent/guardian. Pets can come along in consultation.
How can I pay in the salon?
You can pay cash or by Tikkie. You can also make a transfer in advance.
Do you also paint toenails?
Coming soon! At the moment I am still looking for 3 models, who can choose a nice color (gel polish) for a small price. This includes: 1 new set, aftercare and removal. Send a message if interested!
Do you also do press on nails?
On request I can make a nice set for you. Ask about the possibilities.
