About this treatment
A beauty treatment focused on the care and enhancement of the hands and fingernails.
The hands are first soaked in warm water or a specialist hand soak to soften the skin and nails, preparing them for shaping and cuticle care. The nails are then trimmed, filed and shaped to the length and style you want, and the cuticles are gently pushed back or tidied.
KD Nails offers a manicure with strengthener and no colour on the price list. Colour can be added as a gel polish service.
Who it suits
- Natural nails that need tidying, shaping and cuticle care.
- Anyone who prefers a bare, groomed finish with no colour.
- Before an extension or gel polish appointment.

Aftercare
- When picking anything up, try not to use the tips of your nails — stress and strain lead to breakages.
- Always use cuticle oil to keep cuticles healthy and nourished.
- Always wear protective gloves when gardening or doing DIY jobs.
- Dry your nails individually.
- Never immerse your nail enhancements in any solution you would not put on your face.
- Some suntan lotions can dissolve and discolour nail enhancements.
