  • Harvest Moon

    The team

    Four pairs of very steady hands

    • Mina

      Owner · nail art

      Opened Tiny Moons in 2019 with two chairs and a lot of tiny brushes. Paints every seasonal set herself.

    • Jo

      Structured gel

      The one to see if your nails bend, peel or never seem to grow past your fingertips.

    • Priya

      Extensions

      Shapes almonds so even you'll check them twice. Light sets that still let you type.

    • Lu

      Pedicures · chrome

      Runs the pedicure corner and the playlist. Ask for the full moon, then ask for the long massage.

    Clean & kind

    Pretty is nice. Clean is non-negotiable.

    • Fresh files for everyone. Files, buffers and toe separators are single-use, and the leftover goes home with you.

    • Metal tools, heat-sterilized. Clippers and pushers come out of a sealed pouch opened in front of you.

    • Pedicure bowls with liners. No jets and no pipes, a fresh liner for every guest, and a full clean between.

    • Air you can breathe. Every table has its own vented extractor, so the studio smells like tea, not acrylic.

    Inside the studio: pink fluted manicure tables, arched mirrors, cream chairs and a mint wall of polish in rainbow order

    Questions

    Good to know

    Do you take walk-ins?

    Yes, whenever a chair is free, and weekday mornings usually have one. For Saturdays and anything with art, booking ahead is the safer bet.

    How long does gel last?

    Most guests get two to three weeks. If a gel manicure chips in the first five days, pop back and we'll fix it free.

    I have gel from somewhere else. Can you take it off?

    Of course. Add removal when you book so we leave enough time; we soak it off gently, never pry or drill it.

    What's the difference between structured gel and extensions?

    Structured gel strengthens your own nails at their own length. Extensions add length with soft-gel tips. Jo or Priya will help you choose.

    What if I need to cancel?

    Reply to your reminder text any time up to 24 hours before. Later than that, or a no-show, and we ask for $15 next time.
