Gel polish is a coloured coat on your natural nail and lasts about two to three weeks. BIAB is a thicker builder gel that strengthens your natural nails and helps them grow. Acrylic is used to build extensions, so it is the best choice if you want extra length or a specific shape.

For BIAB and acrylic we recommend a refill every three to four weeks. For eyelash extensions, every two to three weeks. The price depends on how many weeks have passed since your last appointment.

For first-time clients with lashes from another salon we place a new set; after that you can come back for regular refills. If you still prefer a refill, we charge 20% on top of the refill price because of the extra work involved.

Classic lashes give a natural, defined look. Volume and mega volume give more density and drama, and wet look or Kim style lashes give a trendy, textured effect. Anni will advise you on the style and length that fit your eye shape and natural lashes.

Avoid oil-based products around the eyes and do not rub your eyes. Brush your lashes gently every day. This keeps your set full and beautiful for longer.

A lash lift curls your own lashes and lasts about four to six weeks, and no extensions are added. Extensions add length and volume and need regular refills.

On average one to three years. It depends on your skin type, sun exposure, medication and aftercare. We recommend a touch-up after one to one and a half years.

A touch-up is recommended: it fills small gaps and makes the result last longer. Because the skin needs time to renew, it is done at least four weeks after the first treatment.

Avoid alcohol, coffee and energy drinks for 24 hours, and aspirin, ibuprofen, vitamin E or fish oil for 48 hours before your treatment (paracetamol is fine). Avoid sunbathing and the solarium for 7 days before. Please do not wax your brows in the 2 to 3 days before a brow treatment. For lip treatments: keep your lips well moisturised in the days before, and if you are prone to cold sores, ask your GP for an antiviral treatment beforehand.

For the first 7 days, avoid swimming, sports, the sauna, sunbathing and the solarium, and do not put make-up or skincare on the treated area. Try not to touch it. Lips: clean them with slightly damp cotton pads every hour on day 1 and every 2 to 3 hours on days 2 and 3, and apply a thin layer of Vaseline at night for the first 5 to 7 nights. You receive full aftercare instructions in the salon.

In the first two days the colour looks darker and more intense than the final result. Around day 3 to 5 the skin starts to flake gently. Please do not pick at it. After about a week the area has healed and the colour becomes softer and more natural. At the touch-up after four weeks, small spots are refreshed and refined.

A relaxing treatment for scalp and hair: deep cleansing, exfoliation, hair care and a massage of the head, neck and shoulders. Most clients find it deeply relaxing, and your scalp and hair feel fresh and cared for afterwards.
