Flawlessnails

A nail technician for three years. Natural sets or more of-the-moment ones — chrome, cat eyes, baby-boomer, French, nail art — in a private studio that takes one client at a time.

Mon – Fri 9h – 19h Saturday 9h – 13h

The method

A Russian manicure, with every service.

It is what separates a correct set from a clean one: working and removing the cuticle fully clears the nail base, so the colour starts right at the skin and regrowth shows far later.

The technician

Caroline.

A nail technician for three years, based in Lille. Her world is the clean, timeless set — clean girl, natural, meticulously done — without ever ruling out nail art or the trend of the moment.

Every service includes a Russian manicure, and every appointment takes place in a studio where she sees one client at a time.

See the services

Overlays, extensions,
gel polish, nail art.

The names look alike and mean different things. Here is what each one covers, so you can choose knowing what you are choosing.

Two questions, and you will know which one to ask for.

Your nails today

This is the service for nails that peel or break: the overlay strengthens them while keeping their own length, and protects them as they grow.

Your nails are already strong and you simply want colour that holds: this is the most discreet service, with no added thickness.

Extensions give you the length and shape you want immediately, and the set is structured to last.

Extensions give you the length and shape you want immediately, and the set is structured to last.

01

Overlay on natural nails

Weak, soft or brittle nails

An overlay strengthens the natural nail with a suitable product while keeping its own length. It is the service for nails that peel or break, and for anyone growing their nails out who wants them protected along the way.

Overlay: short nails kept at their natural length, pink cat eye finish.

02

Extensions

Length and shape straight away

Extensions add length to the natural nail: you get the length and the shape you want immediately. The set is then shaped and structured so the whole thing is balanced and lasts.

Extensions: very long white stiletto nails, shaped at the appointment.

03

Gel polish

Lasting colour, slim finish

A glossy, long-wearing colour applied to the natural nail with no added thickness: the most discreet service, and the right one when your nails are already strong and you simply want colour that holds.

Gel polish: coral colour on short natural nails, with no added thickness.

04

Nail art

On any of the sets above

Nail art makes a set your own. It can be added to any of the services above, on a single nail or on all ten.

  • French
  • Baby-boomer
  • Chrome
  • Cat eyes
  • Hand-painted motifs
  • Strass
Nail art: marbled midnight-blue base, gold stars and crescents painted by hand.
