How the Deluxe Manicure Works
The service begins with an anti-bacterial essential tea tree oil spray to refresh the hands. Nails are then trimmed and filed to the client's desired shape. Lemon oil is applied to the cuticles to soften them, preparing the area for careful removal of excess skin and buildup, followed by a honey sugar peppermint exfoliation to slough away dull surface cells.
After exfoliation, hot towels are wrapped around each hand to relax muscles and open skin pores. A focused hand and arm massage using warm shea butter cream provides deep hydration, improving skin feel without harsh procedures. The treatment finishes with your choice of our toxin-free, vegan-friendly Zoya polish. The service runs 45 MINUTES and is priced at $47.
Factors That Shape Your Result
Client choices such as the nail shape requested and the amount of cuticle work desired directly influence the final look. Because nails are trimmed and filed to the client's preferred silhouette, technicians balance length, strength and shape to match lifestyle needs—for example, shorter, stronger edges for active parents and longer shapes for special events.
Skin and nail condition arriving at the appointment affects how aggressive technicians can be with cuticle removal and exfoliation. Seasonal habits in Columbia—outdoor recreation, humid summers and cooler winters—also change skin texture, so the exfoliation and shea butter massage are tailored to restore a smooth surface and healthy glow without over-treating delicate skin.
Appointment Timing and Local Convenience
The 45 MINUTES Deluxe Manicure is designed to fit into a busy suburban schedule—suitable for after-work visits or quick weekend self-care. The Face Place location near Oakland Mills village offers easy access from US 29 and local arterials, making the service practical for commuters coming from Columbia, Ellicott City, Elkridge and nearby communities.
Clients attending events at Merriweather Post Pavilion or spending time at Lake Kittamaqundi often book around concerts or outings. We recommend arriving a few minutes early to check in and communicate color preferences; technicians will match your Zoya polish choice and adjust service focus to fit your timeline and plans for the rest of your day.
