I did go through a phase where I loved nail art. I got all sorts of designs done, it was ridiculous. But since I joined the corporate world, I've toned it down a lot. Turning up to work with big yellow smiley-faces all over your nails can make a mundane day at your desk much better, but just doesn't look right. So I stick to plain ol' nail-polish, but I still rock my BRIGHT colours.
WOW! Nails offer nail-art manicure services (and other manicure options) over at their concession stand at the L'Espace store in Lagos. I went over to the launch in June (yes, I know it is August, but I have to try out these places before I can recommend it to you ladies), and I was really impressed with the design choices they had on display. Their nail polish selection is quite a mish mash of very familiar products: Topshop, Barry M, Chanel, Essie, etc. I think in order for you guys to enjoy this post it needs to be a little picture heavy. So I'll make like a magazine and keep my rambling to a minimum on this one. Have a look at the pictures.
The pictures below are my own nails showing off the little nail stick-ons I got.
I was rocking a Gel manicure that day so couldn't get any nail-art done, opted for two little 'bow' stick-ons on my ring fingers.
I thought they were cute :). And they lasted a week, which is REALLY good for stick-ons.
You'd be pleased to know that WOW! nails also offer Shellac/Gel manicures for N1700. As far as I know, they are currently the cheapest in Lagos.
You can also watch a selection of dvds on their mini dvd players, while you get your manicure done.
WOW! Nails only offer manicure services and it's not a full manicure just a little nail-tidy - neaten cuticles, shape, buff that sort of thing. Definitely no pedicures. So their services are perfect for when you need a change of polish between your routine mani/pedi appointments.
PRICES
Here are a few services (along with prices) offered at WOW! Nails:
- Basic Manicure (shape, buff, polish & cuticle oil) - N1500
- Acrylic Nails - Full Set N3000, Acrylic Removal N500, Add on Art N700
- Gel Polish - N1700
- Leopard Print Manicure - N2500
- Crackle Polish Manicure - N2500
- Half Moon Manicure - N2500
- Rainbow Tips Manicure - N2500
So head on over to L'Espace by LPM and get some funky nail art done! Don't forget to come back and let me know how the experience went.
