chrome

Chrome / Cat-Eye / Aura Glossy finishes that catch every light in the room.

Lavender chrome nail finger dipping into a small bowl of pearls, rhinestones, and star nail charms.

These are our finishing techniques — not a base service, but the move that makes a set actually pop. Chrome is a rubbed pigment over a fresh black or white base; pearl chrome is softer, almost opal; mirror chrome is sharper. Cat-eye magnetic gel is pulled into a shimmer line with a small magnet — one nail or full set. Aura is a soft airbrushed glow centred on the nail with a translucent halo. Pick one or stack them. The price below is on top of any base service.

I went in for my friend’s wedding and Mei built me a coffin set in two hours that wore beautifully right through the wedding and the honeymoon. The salon is small and pink and clean. I’m going back for my own birthday next month.

My nails have peeled forever. I tried BIAB at Fresh Set after seeing them on TikTok and three months in I have actual nails for the first time. The cuticle work alone is worth it.

I did NOT need another nail spot in my life. I came in for one chrome French and now I have a standing Friday. The vibe is just so much better than my old place — actual seating area, ring light, real conversations.
