The work
Small, slow nail bookings — almond-shape gel sets with hand-painted detail. I take these a few times a month around the heavier work, often paired with friends getting tattooed the same day.
How a piece gets made
From the first email to the finished piece.
- Step 01
Book
Open dates go up in the journal at the start of each month.
- Step 02
Sit
About 90 minutes in studio. Tea, music, and time to talk through the design without rushing.
- Step 03
Set
Gel-cured and sealed. If something pops or smudges in the first two weeks I'll fix it for free.

Things people ask
Before you write.
How long do they last?+
Two to three weeks before they start lifting in normal life. Less if you do dishes without gloves.
Can I bring a Pinterest reference?+
Bring whatever you like. We'll talk through it and land somewhere that still feels like part of the same body of work.
