Nails and manicures in Larnaca
Nail appointments in Larnaca are usually booked either at a salon or with a mobile technician who comes to you. The main choice is the system: a plain manicure lasts about a week, gel polish two to three weeks, and builder gel or acrylic extensions four to six weeks with an infill in between. Extensions cost more and require regular infills, so the real cost is the maintenance cycle rather than the first appointment. Ask which system a technician actually specialises in — most are noticeably better at one than the others.

What affects the price
- The system: plain manicure, gel polish, builder gel (BIAB) or acrylic extensions.
- New set versus an infill — infills are cheaper and are what you pay for most often.
- Nail art, chrome, French tips and hand-painted designs are charged per nail or per set.
- Removal and repair of a previous technician's work is often a separate charge.
- Mobile technicians who come to your home factor in travel.
What to ask before you book
- Which system do you specialise in?
- Is removal of my existing set included?
- How long should this last before an infill?
- Is nail art included in the quoted price or extra?
- How do you sterilise your tools between clients?
Common questions
How long does a gel manicure last?
Gel polish typically holds two to three weeks before regrowth becomes visible. Builder gel and acrylic extensions last four to six weeks but need an infill in that window rather than a full replacement.
Can a nail technician come to my home in Larnaca?
Yes — mobile nail technicians work across Larnaca. They bring a portable lamp and their own tools. Ask about sterilisation, since a mobile setup should still use properly sterilised or single-use implements.
