In detail
How does a custom nail design work?
Send the design to Glam House Caringbah on Instagram before your appointment, a screenshot or a saved post is fine. The artist looks at what it needs: a hand-painted motif, chrome powder, sculpted 3D relief, foil, crystals, or a mix, and tells you the price and the extra time before you sit down. Simple work, a couple of accent nails with a line or a dot pattern, sits near the $10 starting point. Full ten-nail designs with 3D florals, chrome and set crystals are priced for the hours they take, and they are the sets that end up photographed. Nail art is always on top of a base service, so book the enhancement or manicure you want and add the art at the same time, and allow 20 minutes or more for a detailed set. If you have no reference and just want something, say so. Chrome, cherry and a clean French are the house defaults for a reason.
Before you book
Questions about nail art.
What is a cat eye nail?
A magnetic gel polish with metallic particles. After the colour goes on, a magnet is held over each nail to pull the particles into a streak of light, like the slit of a cat eye. Deep greens, blues and blacks show it best. From $20 a set, about ten minutes extra.
Do 3D nails and crystals last?
Yes, when they are set into the gel properly rather than glued on top. Sculpted chrome and 3D relief are built into the set and cured, and crystals are seated in gel. Treat them as jewellery: no picking, and use the pads of your fingers rather than the nails for opening things.
Can I bring my own design?
Yes. Send it to Glam House Caringbah on Instagram before your booking. The artist will confirm what is possible, quote the design price and the extra time, and have the right colours ready. Bringing it on the day works too, but the quote happens at the chair.
