Manicures and Pedicures

The BEST Russian Manicure in Hamilton, Ontario.

Have you experienced P.R.I.S.T.I.N.E cuticle work?

Want to experience it?

A Russian E-file manicure is a technique that makes use of an electronic file to remove the excess skin surrounding the nail bed. It allows nail technicians to be more in control while removing the cuticle, and processing lateral folds and nail plates. It does not include the use of water! 

‘Nail plate alignment’ is done to maintain the proper architecture of your nail, adding extra strength and protection for your natural nails, helping them grow!

Pedicures

Getting a pedicure is important not just during the summer, it’s an all-year-round necessity.
Pedicures are important, first of all, for your health. In the summer, you get to flaunt your feet in open-toed shoes.

During the rest of the year, however, using closed shoes that are often too tight creates pressure on your nail beds, which can cause deformation, ingrown toenails, and pain accompanied by inflammation. To avoid these problems, everyone should take care of their feet year-round with a professional pedicure. Ideal for a diabetic and ticklish clients!

Working on dry skin, our microdermabrasion machine allows for easy and gentle callus removal on the heels, without disrupting or irritating the live skin.
The results are a softer, cleaner finish that keeps feet smoother for longer.

Why a soakless pedicure?

Waterless pedicure boasts a heavy benefit, including longer-lasting polish, softer skin, increased product performance, and a more sanitary and eco-friendly service.

Pedicure

·  Safe for all customers, including clients with diabetes, circulation issues,
expectant or nursing mothers, and those on medications

·  Easier for the foot care professional to assess the skin pre- and
during service allowing them to customize callus management

·  Waterless pedicure provides sanitary safety by limiting the opportunity for
spreading water-born pathogens

·  Over-soaking the skin can begin to break down the skin (maceration)
and can strip the skin of its natural moisture barrier

·  Skin can absorb too much moisture from oversoaking, preventing the skin from
absorbing hydration ingredients from products used in service

·  Too much moisture in the nail plate can negatively affect nail bracing, nail replacement
and polish application services

·  Skin that has been soaked is more fragile and more susceptible to abrasion to the
skin/nail groove during service

· Environmental impacts – less water used is kinder to the environment
