  • Sophie K.
    BIAB · with Mai · 19 October 2026

    ★★★★★

    Finally a studio that doesn't rush you. Mai took real care – my BIAB is in week four with no lifting.

    Reply from the studio: Thank you, Sophie! See you for the refill – Mai

  • Daniel R.
    Spa pedicure · with Thu · 11 October 2026

    ★★★★★

    As a guy I was sceptical. Spotless, everything fresh out of the sterilisation pouch, and the foot massage was great.

FAQ

Good to know

What's the difference between shellac, BIAB and gel?

Shellac is a coloured polish lasting 2–3 weeks – great for healthy natural nails. BIAB is a flexible builder gel that strengthens soft nails and lets them grow. Gel or acrylic extensions add length with tips or forms.

Can I walk in?

Yes. On weekdays the wait is usually 15–30 minutes, longer on Saturdays. With an online booking you're seated right away.

How long does BIAB last?

About 3–4 weeks. Then we refill instead of removing everything – gentler on your natural nail.

Do you remove other salons' work?

Yes – add the extra “Removal of other salon's product” (+15 min, €10).

Can I pay by card?

Yes: debit, credit, Apple Pay, Google Pay and cash. Tips by card are fine too.

I'm pregnant / diabetic – can I get a pedicure?

Yes – please mention it in the booking note. For diabetic clients we work blade-free; for medical foot care we recommend a podiatrist.

Do you speak English?

Yes – Linh, Thu and Jana speak English; the whole team speaks Vietnamese and German.
