Is this treatment right for me?

Choose according to natural-nail condition, desired length, maintenance commitment and whether removal or a fill is needed first.

What this service offers

Promotes Healthy Natural Nail Growth

Regular cuticle tidying and nail shaping prevent painful hangnails, split edges, and brittle nail breakage.

Deeply Hydrating Hand Skin Renewal

Warm soaking and nourishing lotion massages soften dry palms, calluses, and weather-worn skin.

Relaxing Tension Relief

Includes a gentle hand and lower arm massage to relieve muscle tightness and boost blood circulation.

Neat, Timeless Aesthetics

Leaves your fingernails looking naturally clean, uniform, and elegantly groomed for any occasion.

What to expect

1

Choose the nail shape

Discuss length, shape and any sore or damaged nails before filing begins.

2

Tidy and finish

Agree the cuticle work and whether polish is included in your selected appointment. Cuticles help protect the nail and should not be aggressively cut.

Preparation and aftercare

Before your appointment

  • Tell the technician about existing polish, a nail problem or a previous product reaction.
  • Avoid cutting your cuticles before the visit; ask about removal if you already have an enhancement.

After your appointment

  • Keep hands and cuticles moisturised, and use gloves for washing-up or cleaning.
  • Avoid using nails to prise things open. Redness, swelling or pain around a nail needs assessment, not another layer of polish.

FAQs

What is the difference between a classic manicure and a gel manicure?

A Classic Manicure uses traditional air-dry nail polish or a high-shine buff, making it easy to remove at home with regular polish remover. A Gel Manicure uses light-cured gel polish that cures instantly under an LED lamp and offers chip-free durability for 2–3 weeks.

How long does a classic manicure take?

A classic manicure at Galeo Beauty typically takes between 30 to 45 minutes, making it an ideal express self-care treatment.

How long does regular nail polish last after a manicure?

Regular lacquer polish typically stays chip-free for 5 to 7 days, depending on your daily hand activities, water exposure, and hand care.

Can men get a classic manicure?

Yes, absolutely! Manicures are a fantastic grooming treatment for everyone. Men can opt for a natural shine buff or matte clear coat instead of colored polish.

How often should I get a manicure?

We recommend getting a manicure every 2 to 3 weeks to maintain clean cuticle borders, proper nail length, and soft, hydrated hand skin.
