soak off gel

OPI Soak-Off Gel Lacquer is here! Pinkies is excited to bring you this brand new treatment. No need to fear the drilling and filing associated with acrylics and other non-natural treatments. Gel lacquer goes right over your natural nail and stays shiny and chip-free for up to 2 weeks.

This service is perfect for long vacations, special occasions, and your busy lifestyle. Soak-offs are also ideal for people who have weak, nails prone to splitting and chipping.

Unlike a traditional nail polish, soak-off gel polish is painted on with a brush and each layer is “cured” under a UV light to dry. The result is a shiny, long lasting manicure. Removal is easy because the polish soaks right off. Similar to non-natural treatments, Pinkies recommends receiving a soak-off gel fill every 2 weeks. soak off gel 2

We offer several of your favorite OPI colors, including Bubble Bath, Cajun Shrimp, Lincoln Park After Dark, and many more. You can also receive Soak-Off Gel Pedicures. You can slip into your shoes right away instead of waiting and waiting for the polish to dry because the color sets under a UV light.

We offer our Soak-Off Gel manicures and pedicures at all of our locations. Just call to book your appointment! Sign up online or over the phone to receive special email offers.

Macy’s in San Francisco’s bustling Union Square  invited Pinkies Nail Salons to their exclusive launching of the b.tempt’d bra line from Wacoal on Friday, April 10. Two of our fabulous nail technicians from Pinkies Potrero Hill performed complementary mini manicures to each customer who tried on a b.tempt’d bra. Customers who purchased an item from the b.temp’d line received a Pinkies gift card.

Shoppers (and Pinkies staff) enjoyed tasty cookies and beverages while listening to a live DJ. We were able to meet so many new people while we gave our Mini Manicures. Pinkies loves getting out into the community and working with new and exciting companies and organizations. The event was a huge success, and we can’t work with our new friends at Macy’s again!

Our salon resides at the top of Potrero Hill in San Francisco overlooking the city skyline and the bay. The neighborhood is very relaxed with several restaurants and coffee shops very close to the salon.

Our long time manager, Carmen, and our front desk expert, Oge, are ready to make your Pinkies experience as fabulous as it can be. If you know the name of the polish you like, Carmen and Oge are masters at picking it out on the shelf before you can even blink. You might even get to meet our owner Connie’s giant shnauzer, Bella, who loves to dress up for Farley’s Costume Pet Parade.

In this economy some people have found more creative approaches to reaching new customers. A bit over the top is Paul Saad of Merrill Lynch who recently hosted his Financial Planning Seminar at Pinkies Nail Salons in Danville, Ca.
Paul and his associates held in information packed evening for 15 pre-registered women on “Financial Planning for Women” complete with scrumptious hors d’oeuvres, wine and deserts. When word got out, the event was fully booked in hours!
While his guests received Pinkies Pedi’s they were educated on the intricacies of financial planning. The group asked very good, direct questions and got relevant answers. Guest came away educated and much more knowledgeable about their finances.
