Basic Nail Art, added to your gel polish appointment, is a simple way to make your manicure feel a little more special without turning it into a full set of detailed nail art. Think clean lines, subtle details and one or two feature nails, finished with the same smooth, glossy top coat so everything looks polished and intentional.
More information
What Basic Nail Art adds to your gel polish
Basic Nail Art is a short add on designed for simple, wearable details that still look tidy as your nails grow.
- A quick chat about what you like, from subtle to a little more playful.
- Simple designs such as dots, fine lines, minimal shapes, or a single accent nail.
- Placement that suits your nail shape and length, so it looks balanced, not busy.
- Neat application over your chosen gel colour, then sealed under top coat for a smooth finish.
- A realistic plan for what can be achieved within a short add on slot.
Basic nail art ideas that work for everyday life
If you want something you will still like two weeks in, simple usually wins. Popular choices include a feature nail on each hand, a fine line detail, or a minimal pattern that complements your gel colour.
If you are not sure what will suit you, bring a couple of inspiration photos and we will help you pick something that matches your style and your nail shape.
How the add on fits into your gel polish appointment
This service is added onto your gel polish booking and usually takes around 15 minutes, depending on the design. If you already know you would like nail art, it is best to book it in so there is enough time to keep everything precise.
Keeping your Basic Nail Art looking fresh
Treat your nails like jewellery, not tools, and use cuticle oil regularly to keep the skin and nails comfortable. If you are hard on your hands at work or the gym, choose simpler designs as they tend to look tidier for longer.
