A HELPING HAND
From embellished to stiletto-shaped or abstract strokes with negative (i.e. natural) space, there is always something new and trending in the colourful world of nails. But did you know that the term “manicure” comes from the French word “manucure”, which means “care of hands”? For a pampering session that fuses tender loving care with Instagram-worthy talons, look to the Classic Gel Manicure at The Nail Palace.
GLOSSY DISPOSITION
A godsend for time-starved individuals who need to get primped fast without having to compromise on quality or attention to detail, gel manicures at The Nail Palace are conducted in an efficient and fuss-free fashion—including the appointment-booking process, thanks to a roster of 150 professionally trained nail technicians across 19 outlets. Even a three-dimensional bejewelled set can be completed in under an hour, inclusive of nail cleaning, buffing, shaping and cuticle trimming. On top of the gel process—base coat, nail polish, top coat and UV light “drying” in between each layer—you can also look forward to a quick massage from your therapist to nourish and rejuvenate tired hands. They are, after all, one of the hardest-working parts of your body.

THE SOAK OFF
The two hesitations people have when it comes to gel ’dos is how the coats affect nails beds as well as the removal process. At The Nail Palace, which boasts 17 years of industry experience, they don’t just use brand products with trusted formulas, they also have their own in-house line of Gel Polish (for in-salon use only with LED or UV light), and a return soak-off process that keeps the health and wellness of your nails in mind.
