Manicures

We offer a range of manicure services at Painted including Gel (commonly known as Shellac), Builder Gel (BIAB) manicures and classic manicures using fast-drying, chip-resistant nail polish Dazzle Dry. At Painted, we take care and pride in every manicure. We also safely remove gel (shellac), helping minimise any nail damage from removal which can often occur.

Pedicures

Our signature waterless (dry) pedicure offering at Painted is one of the first in Sydney. Skipping the traditional soak a waterless pedicure is more hygienic and hydrating for your feet and nails, minimising the risk of any cross-contamination from water-borne bacteria. Your polish lasts longer, your feet and more hydrated and no more nasty infections!

Unbelievable customer service. Amazing clean and sophisticated salon. Such an efficient, high-quality BIAB manicure. I am obsessed!

The waterless pedicure at Painted was 10/10. It’s a new space in Darlinghurst and it’s really really good!

- Emily Algar, Russh Magazine Beauty Writer

I’m a pedicure-only gal these days (my fingernails get wrecked way too quickly from all the physical labour of just handling two kids and their laundry/toys all day), but a mani at this cute new Darlinghurst nail salon recently lasted SO long without chipping, I was shook! I’m talking around 10 days. The stamina! I’ll be back for a waterless pedicure too.
