About Pau
I'm Paula, originally from San José, Costa Rica, and I run my own studio in downtown West Palm Beach. One client at a time, by appointment, with the door closed and the phone off.
I trained in structured gel and Russian manicure technique because I got tired of watching sets lift at week two. Everything I do is built around one thing: your nails should look the same on day 28 as they did on day one, and your natural nail should be healthier when the set comes off than when it went on.
No MMA. No drilling on the natural nail. Every tool autoclaved, every file single-use. If that sounds like a low bar, you haven't been to enough salons.

The experience
Send an inspo photo when you book. I'll tell you honestly whether it works on your nail bed and what it'll cost.
Private room, one client at a time. Espresso or sparkling water. Two hours that are actually yours.
Prep, structure, color, finish. I'll show you the apex from the side before we seal it.
Aftercare card, cuticle oil to take home, and your rebook on the calendar before you leave.
