Meet your nail tech

Self taught, fully obsessed.

I started doing my own nails because I wanted sets that actually looked like the ones I kept saving on my phone. I practiced, I watched, I redid the same nail ten times, and I got good at it. Nailed by Jade is what came out of that.

Because I am still building my client list, you get something a big salon cannot really give you. One client at a time, no rushing, and a design we agree on before you ever sit down. I take my time on the shape, the apex and the cleanup, because that is what makes a set last.

Everything happens in a private space in the Akron area. It is calm, it is clean, and it is just you and me for the whole appointment.

Start with your length.

Base pricing is set by how long you want to go. Gel-X or acrylic costs the same, so pick whichever you like. Art, shaping and extras get added on top.

Overlays and toes too.

Not everyone wants extensions. If you are growing your own nails out, or you just want your toes done, there is something here for you.

A short set by Jade, close to natural nail length

Acrylic overlay $20

Acrylic applied straight over your natural nail. No extensions, no added length, just a stronger and smoother finish.

Builder gel overlay $25

A flexible layer of builder gel that protects your natural nail while it grows. The gentlest way to keep length.

Gel toes $10

About an hour, usually a solid color, and you can add any art tier. Ask and Jade will fit them in between her longer appointments.

Four tiers, no guessing.

Art is priced by how much work goes into it. Find the tier that matches what you have saved and add it to your base price.

Tier One

$10

Minimal art added on top. One solid color, a one color cat eye, swirls, polka dots, simple designs or a single accent nail. Chrome, lace and french on their own are base art rather than a tier.

Tier Two

$20

Moderate art. Isolated chrome, animal print, simple 3D work, blooming gel, simple layered designs, aura nails or multicolor polish.

Tier Three

$30

Complex art. Multiple techniques in one set, multicolor auras, detailed art, some charms, mix and match designs or various gems.

Tier Four

$40

Maximalist art. Everything in Tier Three and more. Multiple designs, multiple techniques, all over gems, beads and charms, elaborate art, 3D sculpted or jelly designs.

Work from her table.

The short version of my policies.

Nothing here is meant to be strict for the sake of it. These are the rules that keep every appointment running on time and every set worth the money.

  • A $10 deposit secures your slot

    Your booking is not confirmed until the deposit lands.

  • Cancel at least 24 hours ahead

    Cancel with less notice and the deposit is not refunded.

  • Come 20 minutes late and the slot is gone

    The appointment is cancelled and the deposit is forfeited.

  • Price is agreed before the day

    No changes or adjustments happen at the appointment itself.

Ready when you are

Let us design your next set.

Send me your length, your art tier and the day that works. I will confirm the price and the slot, then all that is left is showing up.
