Japanese Nail Art

Japanese nail art has become increasingly popular in recent years. Though the origin of nail art does not lie in Japan, the popularity of Japanese nail art comes from the technical, precise skills the nail technicians use in creating beautiful works of art.

The nail technicians not only give their clients' their manicures but can also create sculptures, or artificial nails, from powder and paste as they smooth this product over the nail bed and shape it into the desired nail shape. Another popular feature of Japanese nail art are the 3D features. Rather than painting designs onto the nail, some clients prefer the design to be in 3D, sitting on the nail. The simple way to go about this is to purchase the 3D nail accessories sold at shops around town and glue them onto your nail. However, nail technicians are able to create these 3D accessories from another powder like product, creating whatever design the client desires.

Getting your nails done at these Japanese nail salons can be pricey costing anywhere from 10,000 yen but the end results can be worth it.

If you want to have your nails done in a Japanese salon, let your agent know when booking your tour to extend your Japan tour in Tokyo or Kyoto. You can also request a nail salon to be added to a custom or private Japan tour package for a luxury vacation!
