Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I get a manicure?
For optimal nail health in Barbados' climate, we recommend every 2-3 weeks for gel manicures, weekly for regular polish. If you're very active or work with your hands, consider bi-weekly appointments regardless of polish type.
What's the difference between gel manicure and regular manicure?
Regular manicure uses traditional nail polish that air-dries (lasts 5-7 days). Gel manicure uses gel polish cured under UV/LED lamp (lasts 2-3 weeks). Gel is more durable, chip-resistant, and has zero dry time, but requires professional removal. Both include the same nail care services.
Will manicures make my nails weaker?
No! Professional manicures actually strengthen nails by protecting them from environmental damage. The only damage comes from improper removal (peeling gel polish) or excessive filing. Our proper techniques promote healthy nail growth.
Can I get a manicure if I bite my nails?
Absolutely! Regular manicures often help people stop nail biting because you'll want to preserve your beautiful nails. Even short nails look great with proper care and polish. We encourage nail biters to commit to regular appointments-it really helps break the habit.
My cuticles are always dry and cracked. Will manicures help?
Yes! Professional cuticle care plus nightly application of cuticle oil (we can recommend products) will transform dry, cracked cuticles within 2-3 weeks. Barbados' climate requires vigilant cuticle moisturizing-regular manicures keep them healthy.
Can men get manicures?
Definitely! Nail care has no gender. Many professional men get regular manicures for grooming and hygiene. Services are identical; most men choose no polish or clear polish for a natural look. Well-groomed nails are part of professional appearance for everyone.
How long does a manicure appointment take?
Classic Manicure: 45-60 minutes. Gel Manicure: 60-75 minutes. Deluxe Manicure: 75-90 minutes. We don't rush-proper technique requires adequate time.
Should I remove my gel polish before my appointment?
No! We'll remove it properly as part of your service. Never peel or pick gel polish off yourself-this removes layers of your natural nail, causing damage. Professional removal is safe and included in your next manicure.
