    Nail art in Nairobi

    Included with some sets, or from KES 150 per nail · mobile appointment at your home, hotel or Airbnb

    How nail art is priced depends on the artist: with one it is per nail, which is the fairest way to do it — you might want one accent finger, or you might want all ten. Chrome, cat eye, ombré, leopard print, cherries, stars, gems, freehand line work: bring a reference photo and it gets read properly rather than approximated.

    French, cat eye and ombré are grouped as a single finish because they're applied across the whole set rather than nail by nail. Everything else — the drawn, placed and layered work — is per nail on top of whichever set you're having.

    With our other artist, art is simply part of the set price, with no per-nail charge at all. Either way, art sits on top of a base service, so book the set you want first (gel, builder gel, acrylic, sculpted) and add the art to it. The gallery on the artist's page is the honest guide to what's achievable.

    Questions

    Can I bring a photo from Instagram or Pinterest?
    Please do — it's the fastest way to get what you actually want. Send it on WhatsApp when you book so the right time is allowed.
    How is nail art priced?
    It depends on the artist. With one, creative designs are priced per nail, so an accent nail or two costs very little, and French, cat eye and ombré are priced as one whole-set finish. With the other, art is included in the price of your set at no extra charge.
    Does art make my set last less time?
    No. It's sealed under topcoat and wears at the same rate as the set underneath.
