About This Treatment
This session took place with Nami as the nail artist in charge. The guest chose the Full Design Custom menu, applied over bare, natural nails with no removal or replacement needed. Ten extensions were added to build the length and shape for the design. The guest was visiting from the United States.
Design Points
Fine gold wire work is applied to every nail — loops, sprays and small curls, each one different from the next. Pearls and clear stones are set at the ends of the wire, and one nail carries a larger iridescent stone as the focal point.
The base stays a sheer nude with a fine shimmer, so nothing competes with the metal work. Because the pieces are raised and delicate, they are placed mainly near the cuticle where the hand is least likely to catch them.
A Visit to Remember
The guest came in from Boston, traveling together with two friends. It was a fun stop during their trip to Japan, and she looked genuinely pleased with the finished nails.
Care and Style Notes
Extensions like the ten used here add length and let the shape be adjusted to suit your hands, which makes them a good option for anyone wanting a longer line than their natural nails allow. To help the finish last, apply cuticle oil daily and avoid using your nails as tools when opening things. Wearing gloves for dishwashing and cleaning also reduces stress on the tips. A Full Design Custom without charms or stones tends to feel comfortable for everyday wear, since there are no raised parts to catch. As nails grow out, a fill or refresh every few weeks helps keep the shape looking neat.
A Note from Nami
Working on bare nails from the start meant I could shape the extensions freely and keep the whole set even from thumb to pinky. Seeing the guest enjoy the result with her friends beside her made the session a pleasure to work on. Building the length across all ten nails was the part I paid the most attention to this time.
