About Gel Extensions & Custom Nail Art
What I Do
Nails are my thing, but honestly, it’s more about the whole vibe. I’m KC, and when you sit at my table, it’s not just about getting your nails done. We chat, you relax, and you leave with nails that feel like you. I’m a bit of a perfectionist - I’ll spend ages on the tiniest detail if it means your set turns out just right.
Your Ideas, My Canvas
Got wild nail inspo? Show me your Pinterest saves, your random screenshots, even your weirdest ideas. I love a challenge. Whether you want hand painted cartoon nails, something super minimal, or a full-on themed set for your next trip, I’m game. I’ve done everything from Moana to checkerboard prints to abstract swirls.
Extensions, Overlays & All Shapes
I specialize in long lasting gel extensions, but overlays on natural nails are totally an option if you’re not into extra length. Almond, stiletto, square - you pick the shape, I’ll make it work. Overlays are great if you’re trying to grow your nails or just want them stronger.
Not-So-Basic Frenchies & Extra Touches
French tips don’t have to be boring. I do everything from color pop French to patterned or glittery tips. Want 3D nail art designs, chrome, or a bit of bling? I’m all about mixing textures and finishes for that extra oomph.
Nails That Last
I’m careful with my process so your nails stay fresh for weeks. Most of my clients go ages without chips. Plus, whatever you tell me at the table? Safe with me.

My Story
Hey, I'm KC! Been doing nails for years, on and off between classes, and honestly, it’s therapy for me and my clients both. People tell me wild stories while I paint - like the bride who found out her fiancé was cheating, right after I did her wedding nails. I keep all secrets, promise. When I’m not working, I’m deep into anime. Naruto is life, dattebayo! My nail art? Sometimes simple, sometimes full anime madness. Depends on your vibe.
My Work
All Kinds of Nail Magic - I do nail extensions, gel polish, 3D nail designs, anime inspired nail art, French tips, and custom press-on nails.
It’s a Whole Vibe - You get more than nails - it’s like a mini therapy session, pampering, and creative fun rolled in one.
Bring Me Your Wildest Ideas - Got a crazy nail design in mind? Show me! From classy to wild, I love a challenge.
Custom Press-Ons for the Non-Committal - Not into extensions? I make custom press-on nails - commitment issues, sorted!
