NailDesu
Before you arrive, you and the artist settle the design over messages, from a photo of your bare nails and a set chosen from the studio's posts. The owner, who began in a home studio, paints almost every set herself. A deposit holds the slot, and moving it later is hard going.
Come here if
- You want detailed hand-painted nail art for your wedding
- You'd like the artist to design the set for you
- You need a set that lasts for weeks
Maybe not if
- You'd rather settle the design on the day, or move bookings around

What people say
Careful, detailed work
Each nail gets its own small layers of paint, and the pearls and petals go on one at a time by hand.
She cleans and preps your bare nails carefully before any colour goes on.
Weddings and events
Brides book their wedding and ROM sets here months out, after spotting the studio online while looking for ideas.
A bride's set can be matched to her outfit or her rings.
How long it lasts
A clear overlay goes on under the art, and sets get through weeks of chores without chipping.
Leaving the choice to them
The omakase session hands the whole design to the artist, and people book it on a first visit too.
Regulars ask for nudes and plain colours and let her turn them into something of her own.
You get what you asked for
Pick a set from the studio's Instagram and that's the set you leave with.
The small extras
You get a bottle of water and an iPad for Netflix while she works.
When the set's done, she takes proper photos of your nails and sends them to you.
The room
Inside, the street noise drops away, and you're usually the only client in the room.
