We care for you not just in the salon

Aftercare

Why Aftercare?

We believe the effect(s) of treatment(s) and it’s quality is not achieved just in the salon but also depends on the way you take care after leaving the salon. For best and long lasting results we recommend you to follow the aftercare advice after leaving the salon.

You can easily avoid nail chippings, wax burns, henna fades and any unsatisfactory results by following these simple steps.

Our aftercare is designed with the combination of industry standards, regular life styles & professional experience. You might find each section is widely elaborated and it is intentionally compiled in such a way to give you as much as possible information and care without cutting corners.
