Hello! My name is Kara and I’m a licensed nail artist in Washington and California specializing in gel nails using Akzentz product. My services are much different than what you’ve experienced at other salons. I invite you to check out what sets me apart to learn more.
My salon is located in Greenlake, Seattle where I have my own private studio where clients can feel confident knowing it’s just the two of us in the salon space.
My books are closed but if you’d liked to be added to my waitlist, click here for more information.
Gift cards are available for purchase online!
Please Take Note:
- This is an acrylic-free zone due to allergies. Thank you for your understanding. There is a lot of misinformation from other salons. Dip nails (sometimes even referred to as dip gel) are done using acrylic powder and for that reason, dip must be removed before I can work on them.
- I do not offer pedicures.
- I repeat, I am by appointment only and can not accommodate same-day appointments
- My books are closed unless you can find a way to safely clone me 🙃
