Manicures
We offer a range of manicure services at Painted including 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!
