About This Treatment
This is a treatment record from lull., a nail salon in Harajuku that welcomes international guests. On, our nail artist Nami handled a Full Design Custom session for a guest visiting from the United States. The appointment began with a soft gel removal before moving into the new design.
Design Points
The set is built almost entirely in white relief work. Large sculpted bows sit on four nails, smaller ones on others, and two nails carry a lace pattern printed in fine white line work over a sheer pink base. White dots are scattered across the remaining nails.
A few clear stones are set into the centre of the bows. Everything stays within white and clear over a pink base, which is what allows this much three-dimensional detail to read as delicate rather than heavy.
A Note From the Visit
Our guest was in Japan on her honeymoon, traveling from Boston. She has a cousin living in Japan, so she visits every year, and this was her second time getting her nails done here. She looked genuinely happy with how the set turned out.
Care Tips and Who This Suits
Soft gel is a good match for anyone who likes a natural, lightweight feel while still getting solid wear. Most sets hold up well for around three to four weeks, depending on nail growth and daily habits. To keep the finish looking fresh, apply cuticle oil daily and wear gloves for tasks involving hot water or harsh cleaners. When it’s time for a change, book a proper removal rather than peeling the gel off, which protects the natural nail underneath. A fully custom menu like this works well for travelers who want something made specifically for them, without committing to a fixed design in advance.
Comment From Nami
Since there were no add-ons this time, the focus stayed on getting the base and shaping right. That’s often where a clean, comfortable set really comes from. It was nice to have a guest who returns to Japan each year and chose to spend part of that trip here again.
