the rules ✿

before you book

None of this is scary — promise! It just helps us both have a lovely, stress-free appointment together 💕

Before your appointment

  • Come with clean, product-free nails whenever possible — if you've got gel or acrylic on already, please tick 'needs removal' on the form so I can book extra time.
  • Send me your inspo pics over text or DM at least 24 hours before your slot so I can prep the right colours and designs — or just bring them on the day and show me in real life, whatever's easiest ♡
  • Please don't bring extra guests — my little space is set up for just you and me so I can give you my full focus ♡

On the day

  • Arrive 5 minutes early so we can get you comfy, chat colours, and start on time.
  • Wear something you don't mind getting a tiny bit of polish on, just in case.
  • Please come with clean hands — a quick wash before you sit down keeps everything hygienic.
  • Try not to bring hot drinks or food to the table — spills near the lamp aren't fun for either of us!

Running late or cancelling

  • Life happens — if you need to reschedule, please just let me know as early as you can so I can offer the slot to someone else.
  • If you're more than 15 minutes late without a heads-up, your appointment may need to be shortened or rebooked so I can stay on time for my next client.
  • No-shows make it really hard to keep taking bookings, so please always send a quick message if plans change.

Aftercare (the important bit!)

  • Wear gloves when cleaning, washing up, or gardening — chemicals are the biggest cause of lifting.
  • Use cuticle oil daily. It keeps your nails flexible, hydrated, and lasting so much longer.
  • Try not to use your nails as tools — no opening cans, scratching stickers, or picking at things.
  • If a nail lifts or breaks, please don't pick or peel it. Just message me and I'll fix it up.
🌸

Health & safety

  • Please let me know about any allergies (gels, acrylics, latex, lotions) on the booking form — your safety comes first.
  • If you have any open cuts, infections, fungus, or skin conditions on your hands, we'll need to wait until it's healed before your appointment.
  • Feeling unwell? Just message me and we'll reschedule — no fuss, no worries.

Being kind

  • I'm a beginner tech pouring so much love into learning — please be patient, encouraging, and kind while I grow.
  • Constructive feedback is always welcome, but please share it gently ♡
  • By booking, you're supporting my dream — thank you, truly, from the bottom of my heart.
