You don't need new sets all of the time!

When you visit The Purple Pinkie and get a fabulous set of colored/glitter acrylic design nails, your full set is your initial investment of $50. It's $45 for the full set and $5 for the glitter. We then fill those nails for $24 or backfill to change the design for $29. We DO NOT request or require you to get a new full set like other salons. That is nothing more than a ploy to get more money out of you.

Here are some examples of nails that we have done and changed the designs on. The photo above is Kylie's initial set of nails with a gumball theme. Price would be $50 for initial set.

When we filled them, we just added acrylic to the regrowth area and added black accents, and Candy Drop nail art. Price would be $24 for fill and $5 for the 4 Candy Drops.

This time, we went with a whole different design. This is the layered stone design that uses colored acrylic, glitter acrylic, mylar and hand painted accents as well as Candy Drop art. Price would be $29 for this backfill and $5 for 4 Candy Drops.

After a few weeks, Kylie was tired of the design and wanted something simplier. We backfilled the nails and did a glitter fade with a custom black glitter mix and large irridescent glitter with hand painted hybiscus flowers. Price would be $29 for this backfill and $5 for the nail art.

So, moral of this post is, take care of your intial set and it will save you money in the long run. Don't be scammed by salons that require you to do new full sets all of the time. It is NOT necessary!

Nail Makeovers!

Are you a nail biter?  Are you missing a toenail or part of it?  Don't walk around in shame, let us help you!!  We can transform your bitten nubs into nice nails and we can reconstruct a missing or damaged toenail!

Here are a couple of nail biters that we have applied full sets on.  Now this "may" keep them from biting their nails since some people stop when they have product on their nail.  They may also chew these suckers off, but while they are on, their nails look 100 times better.  We will see how they do!

Here is an example of a damaged toenail that we were able to reconstruct with acrylic.  We then did a set of fabulous glitter toes!  Wendy was so happy!

So don't walk around ashamed of our hands and feet, let us transform them for you!

Manicure, Magic Manicure or Acrylics, which is right for you?

With the addition of the Magic Manicure to our Service Menu, we now have three levels of nails to offer our clients, who wish to come on a consistent basis.  It can be confusing, deciding which service is best for you, so we have created a comparison.

Manicure - This is a service that maintains your natural nails.   This service is best for people who have strong, natural nails or those who are not concerned with breaking a nail or growing their nails.

Magic Manicure - This service is a "step-up" from a manicure, since it gives your nails a little, extra-added strength and makes your polish last!  You can still break nails, however, you won't break as many as you would with a Manicure and you will break more than if you have acrylic nails.  This is a great service to help you grow your natural nails and not have to repolish your nails often.

Acrylic Nails - This service creates the strongest nails that we offer.  You are able to add length.  You also may break a nail occasionally, however, you break the least amount of nails with acrylic nails.

More on the Magic Manicure!

Okay BJ returned 21 days later for another Magic Manicure.  Here is what her nails looked like on April 22.

Here is what they looked line on May 13!  As you can see she has three weeks of regrowth, but NO CHIPS!  It really is magic!!

To avoid seeing the regrowth, either choose a lighter color or come in two weeks for another Magic Manicure.

Once you go MAGIC you won't go back!

Magic Manicure!

We have a new service at The Purple Pinkie, it's called the Magic Manicure!  This services allows you to give your natural nails a little extra added strength and allows your polish to last for two weeks, possibly longer!  Choose from one of our standard colors or have us make you one out of your favorite polish color!

This picutre shows a freshly applied Magic Manicure, thank you to our lovely model, BJ Meleason!

This photo is of Rhonda's nails, 16 days after a Magic Manicure.  She finally got her first chip on day 24.  Even though your polish resists chipping, you will still see the line of regrowth as your nails grow.  To avoid seeing that, either choose a light color or have a Magic Manicure every two weeks.

Magic Manicure - $25
