Nail

Yes. However, our system only allows one booking at a time. Most of our treatments have a drop down add on list so you can click on a specific treatment and have a drop down list to choose from. Where there isn’t a drop then, then take note of the time and duration of your first treatment, checkout your booking and click schedule another appointment. Make sure it follows after your first treatment you booked.

If it’s all a bit too confusing, you can call us on 054 430 4476  and we’ll help you book in your desired nail treatment.

When you have a classical manicure at Zahrat Al Ruman Ladies Salon, your technician will leave your polish to dry for about 5 minutes before applying a quick-dry spray, which accelerates the drying process. They will then check to see if your manicure still needs drying – it is you’ll have to sit back just a little longer to avoid smudges!

In total, around 10-15 minutes after the last topcoat, your manicure should be touch dry and good to go. Just try to avoid knocking it (easily done by rummaging in your bag!) for about an hour until the polish has fully cured through all the coats.

If you have your extensions professionally applied and professionally maintained and removed by qualified nail technicians, there should only be minimal damage to your nail plate. However, constant acrylic application can make your nail plate weak so we advise a small break in between. Beware of nail technicians who leave your nails with white patches, damage and weakness.

It goes without saying that if you pick at your nails or pull them off yourself, the nail will be badly damaged. Professional technicians like those at Our Salon will use the correct, branded, high quality products to apply and remove your nail extensions.

Zahrat Al Ruman Ladies Salon advises a number of ways on how to care for your manicured nails.

To keep a manicure lasting to its full potential avoid getting your nails wet for too long (constant soaking in hot baths or not wearing rubber gloves when washing the dishes) and also avoid coming into contact for prolonged periods with chemicals like those in sunscreen, perfumed products and insect repellent.

Get someone else to do the DIY or tough chores that might cause your manicure to lift, and apply cuticle oil morning and night if you can. This will keep your nails super healthy throughout the duration of your manicure and it will help keep the polish intact.

Finally, don’t pick at your manicure under any circumstances. Instead Book in for a Nail repair if one or nails have damaged otherwise treat yourself to another treatment.

Cuticles are the small overgrowth of dead skin at the bottom of your nail plate. They join the living tissue to your nail, and protect you from any contaminants getting under your skin.

However, overgrown cuticles are no good! Cuticles should be kept pushed back and tidy to keep your nails looking healthy- short, pushed back cuticles also help you get neat, long lasting polish application and help your nails look longer and more elegant. With standard polish, manicures and pedicures, we advise booking a full manicure and pedicure as oppose to our express treatments. With gel polish, the shellac manicure treatment will do the trick!

Standard nail polish usually lasts up to 5 days and is a great choice for temporary or short one off occasions. If that’s what you’re looking for then we recommend booking a classical manicure. It does take a fair few minutes to dry fully to avoid smudges on your manicure.
If that’s too short of period for you then we recommend booking a shellac (gel) manicure at Zahrat Al Ruman Ladies Salon which is designed to last up to two weeks!

With cuticle work and full nail preparation, a gel or shellac manicure should last about 2 weeks with proper application and aftercare. At Our Salon we offer an express version of a gel manicure, but if you want that complete 2 week guarantee then we advise going for the full gel (shellac) manicure.

If the natural nail is pulling away from the nail bed then it will possible that the nail fungus will show underneath. The right application and maintenance of the nail extension will help prevent a nail fungus, as well as using products such as a nail antiseptic or fungal nail treatment.

We knows that this depends on your lifestyle and preference. The faster your nails grow and the more abuse they withstand, the more often you’ll need professional maintenance in our nail salon. If you prefer absolutely perfect polish and medium to long nails, you’ll need a professional manicure once a week. If you favour shorter nails for a more active lifestyle, you may need a professional manicure only every two weeks.

On the whole, we’d recommend on average every two weeks – maximum three weeks!

To get the most out of your manicure we always recommend to wear rubber gloves when doing the dishes and not to use your nails as tools in your everyday life.

We also recommend moisturizing your hands with special focus on your fingernails and cuticle area. Furthermore, we’d advise a healthy diet and food high in vitamin B (Biotin), for example, bananas and strawberries.

Finally, we’d recommend visiting a nail salon near you every 2-3 weeks for good nail maintenance. So book now if it’s coming up to two weeks since your last visit at Zahrat Al Ruman Ladies Salon.

For Acrylic nails the strong resin made of a powder and a liquid mixed together. It’s very hard wearing and we recommend it to people that bite their nails or use their hands a lot.

For Gel Powder Nails the resin is a lot like acrylic and the composition is very similar. However, the finish is more clear compared to acrylic nails and its slight better quality. We’d recommend this to anyone going for a pale/nude colour on their manicured nails.

UV Gel nails on the other hand is a hard gel that will allow you to make your nails longer without damaging your nail bed too much. It’s more flexible than acrylic and gel powder and not as hard wearing but it feels lighter on your hands. This needs to be cured by UV light, hence the name.

Definitely! –  If a booking slot is available. You just need to go on our website Bookings to find all the available slots for the day. Every treatment needs to be booked separately so make sure to select the same time with different technicians.

You can make the booking online here but if you’re still unsure then in such a scenario it might be better to call the salon on 054 430 4476.
