A classic manicure includes nail shaping, cuticle care, a hand massage, and polish of your choice. If you’ve never had this treatment before, it’s natural to wonder exactly what happens once your appointment begins. Here’s a quick walkthrough of what to expect, from start to finish.
Expect nail shaping, cuticle work, a relaxing hand massage, and your chosen polish color to finish. Your licensed therapist or esthetician will check in with you beforehand about your preferences and any areas you’d like them to focus on (or avoid), so the entire appointment is tailored to you rather than following a rigid script.
Throughout the appointment, feel free to speak up about pressure, temperature, or anything else that would make you more comfortable — our team wants this to be a genuinely relaxing experience, not something you have to just get through.
Avoid activities that could smudge polish for at least 30 minutes after your appointment. Most clients find they can go right back to their normal routine afterward, though it’s always worth asking your provider about anything specific to your treatment before you leave.
