Not every manicure needs to involve a UV lamp or weeks of commitment — sometimes you just want traditional colour, done well. This classic manicure uses regular, air-dried nail polish that you can touch up or remove at home with ordinary polish remover, no special equipment required.

Your nail specialist removes any existing polish, then carefully cleans up cuticles and shapes nails to your preference — the same careful attention as any natural nail manicure, just without the gel step. A base coat, your choice of conventional polish, and a protective top coat for shine and longevity finish the colour itself.

This is professional manicure care in the classic sense: expert hands doing the prep and shaping work, even though the polish itself dries the old-fashioned way. A relaxing, moisturizing hand massage finishes the appointment, the same finishing touch every manicure here gets.

Regular polish is touch-dry within about an hour but can take several hours to fully harden, so avoid tight gloves, chores, or anything that puts real pressure on your nails for several hours afterwards if you can.
