Yes. We offer a broad selection of gel colors and finishes, including classic, glitter, and designer shades. Availability depends on brand stock; if you have a specific shade in mind, mention it when booking and we’ll do our best to source it.

You can schedule a full pedicure before or after a gel polish change, but because this service excludes soak and cuticle care, a separate pedicure appointment is best. If you want combined services, book a Pedicure + Gel Change for comprehensive treatment.

Avoid prolonged soaking or harsh chemicals for 24 hours and wear closed shoes if needed. Keep toes moisturized with lotion, especially cuticle areas. For removal, return to the salon for safe professional removal to prevent nail damage and ensure lasting results.
